Dramatic limestone karsts, hidden lagoons, and the most photogenic seascape in the Philippines
El Nido sits at the northern tip of Palawan and is considered one of the most beautiful places in the world — a dramatic seascape of towering limestone karsts rising vertically from electric-blue water, enclosing hidden lagoons, pristine beaches, and coral gardens that rank among Southeast Asia's best snorkelling sites. The town itself is compact and relatively undeveloped, with a single main street of restaurants, dive shops, and tour offices facing Bacuit Bay. The four island-hopping tour routes (Tour A through D) cover Palawan's most iconic spots: the Big and Small Lagoons, Secret Lagoon, Shimizu Island, Cathedral Cave, and Matinloc Shrine. El Nido has been discovered by the world — it gets busy in peak season — but the sheer scale of Bacuit Bay's 50+ islands means isolation is always possible.
Big Lagoon and Small Lagoon — enclosed emerald water accessible only by kayak or swimming
Nacpan Beach — a 4-km undeveloped beach considered one of the world's best
Island-hopping Tours A–D — the classic way to explore Bacuit Bay's 50+ limestone islands
