Palawan is an island in the west of the Philippines. The capital of the island is Puerto Princesa.
Puerto Princesa is like most cities you can find out in the Philippines, not much going on for the visitors. It is a city get to be sorted by key before you move around the island. There are a number of ATM's here and that is the only place on the island, where to find them, so if you cash you can get here and make sure enough, until you're back, otherwiseare very few places that give you an advance is usually a commission of 10%.
From Puerto Princesa, there are a number of trips that you can do. It is up to the open prison to go away over 40 minutes drive tricycle, where you walk around the compound and talk to the prisoners and can, if I was lucky the guards allowed me to the fence of a maximum security fence, to the instant inmates. In the link you will see the prisoners working to ensure that all the wonderfulTo work wood, you see for sale in the city. This is how this prison there is money to pay for the employees feed and care for the prisoners, as they are almost even as they receive little money from the government.
On the way to prison, there is a wildlife park, where they take care of rescued animals from the region. (As for the monkeys, they are very aggressive!) There are guided tours every hour in English and is well worth a visit if you kill an afternoon like.
South ofPuerta Princesa, you have to Sabang is located approximately 3 hours drive away. This is a very small town with electricity runs only 3 hours in the early evening. It's one thing to do here, but it's worth it. Here you have the world's longest underground river. This really is a UNESCO world heritage site and you'll see why. You can get a boat to the entrance of the river, but these are often carried out or there are two paths to the entrance of the different distances. At the entrance youcan usually ask the dragons to eat on the lookout for something that you might bring you amazing to see.
The river is obviously pitch black, you can also have the responsibility for holding the very large flashlight. I would advise you to get to the river in the early morning hours, as it can get busy and I think it would ruin the experience. When I was the first boat, and enjoyed all the river to me on the way back, I must first pass a minimum of 5Boats.
From Sabang can be either a boat or a series of buses get to El Nido - the roads will be warned. You get a magnificent view of both modes, but I recommend to get a boat and a way to the bus the other. It is a great experience on the bus to travel. If you are traveling on the roof of the bus, get the best prospects, but watch out for low branches and power cord!
El Nido is the gateway to Bacuit Bay the main reason for most people come to Palawan. The Cityitself is between two huge limestone rock with a white sandy beach, caught in the middle. There are a few restaurants in town and a couple on the beach, where the table are based on the sand with oil burner for light.
From the base in El Nido can help you organize your trip around the bay. The bay is a mixture of Ha Long Bay, Vietnam and Thailand, Krabi. This picture, if you were to mix would receive them. Yes you are right, you will receive a paradise that only seems to be possibleon postcards. You can make a white sand beach with turquoise seas and coral reefs just for here. For day trips, each has the same for pretty much the same price. They have Tour A, B, C and D to choose which one sounds best to do everything all of them, if you time and money. I would suggest that you do the trip, you will be among the large and small lagoon, which they are just beautiful.
You can try to rent a kayak, and explore the islands themselves, but you also need to fitIslands can look close, but trust me from experience that they are not.
Diving is here to do some of the world's best and there are a few dive shops on the beach. When I got there it was $ 50 for 2 dives.
