What to do in

El Nido

When researching about traveling to Palawan a couple of well-known areas tend to come up and those would probably be El Nido and Coron. Both of these places are amazing and well worth the time. We have yet to get to Coron but have heard and seen enough about it to know it's beautiful. We have on the other hand been lucky enough to explore El Nido and were blown away. The bay of El Nido is a spectacular tropical paradise with majestic limestone peaks jutting up from the emerald blue water which will leave you at a loss for words as you boat from island to island, stopping to relax on the some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. You can choose from one of many boat tour companies in and around El Nido, but be sure to shop around for the best deal. The town of El Nido was hectic and very dirty and gave us a bad taste when we arrived, but once we got to our resort (Las Cabanas) we got a chance to relax and let the good times roll. Paradise has it's downsides and these are the realities of the world we all share and when you see it first hand it can only change you for the better. These experiences are a necessary evil but in hindsight only the good times matter. All in all El Nido is a must-see experience.
