Stunning El Nido via Puerto Prinsesa


Photo credits: Juliet Chan and Sheila Co

El Nido is located in the province of Palawan, Region 4 Philippines. It’s known for pristine beaches, crystal-clear water, stunning limestone cliffs and best of all an awe-inspiring and diversified ecosystem. It’s one of the most popular tourist destinations in Palawan along with Puerto Prinsesa Underground River and Coron beaches (Trinity of Palawan).



I just wanna share how beautiful this magnificent place is and surely is worth going back! Pardon me for not detailing this trip as I wasn't keen into chronicle-ing then my travel :D

PS: All photos were taken in March 2010 and I wasn't into photography yet. Credits to my good friend Juliet and Sheila for allowing me to use their amazing shots here. I honestly didn't bring my then point and shoot camera because I knew everything will be photographed beautifully. 

The only thing I can personally share is our prepared itinerary which is available below. 


Who could ignore the clear water and spectacular limestone?

A friend was then encouraging me to go and grab a DSLR prior our El Nido travel. I sincerely and honestly regret the day when I step foot on El Nido without any decent camera on my hands. Now I am thinking of going back sometime  next year and I hope that El Nido's perpetual beauty stays the same.
