El Nido, Palawan is one of the most talked-about destinations in the Philippines — and this vlog shows what it’s really like to explore it.
We travel through Puerto Princesa to El Nido, visit beaches like Nacpan and Lio, hike to Nagkalit-Kalit Waterfall, eat our way through local restaurants, and go island hopping on El Nido Tour A, including Big Lagoon, Secret Lagoon, and Seven Commandos Beach. We’re also sharing hotel views, spa time, and daily costs to help you plan your trip.
If you’re planning a trip to Palawan, Philippines, this vlog gives you a realistic look at where to go, what to do, and how much time you’ll want in El Nido.
