Of all the destinations in the Philippines, Palawan is one of the most sought after island. It’s amazing to think that this gorgeous paradise is only an hour of plane ride away from the hustling and bustling metro.ย
With its mesmerizing sceneriesย and natural wonders, it’s impossible to run out of things to do in Palawan. It’s not even a surprise that it has topped Travel + Leisureโs ย Worldโs Best Island and how people from all over the world are captivated by its beauty.
Hence, if you ever find yourself in Puerto Princesa, here are five activities you definitelyย want need to try.ย
5. Iwahig Firefly Watching
Thought fireflies are extinct since it’s been a while since you last saw one? Fret not because you’ll be able to witness them light up trees as you cruise through the river on a pitch black night. Aside from firefly watching, you’ll also be able to gaze at stars and observe constellations.
4. Puerto Princesa Underground River
A UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature, PPUR is truly sublime with its age-old limestone landscapes. The wondrous stalactites and stalagmites are never-ending works of art as they continuously change and improve over the years. One of the most amazing rock formations is the Chapel where you can see figures of iconic bible characters and events.
3. Sabang Zipline
Muster the courage and enjoy the thrill of the adrenaline-inducing Sabang Zipline. Worry not because the moment you see the beautiful view from above, you’ll surely forget about your fear of heights.
2. Mangrove Paddle Tour
Enjoy cruising on brackish water as you learn more about mangrove forest, its ecosystem and how important it is in the environment. If you’re lucky enough, you may even spot some wildlife, such as monkeys, lizards and snakes.
1. Nagtabon Beach
Looking forward to enjoying the beach sans the crowd? Nagtabon is a hidden gem with its clear blue water and creamy white sand. Tucked in the northwest part of Puerto Princesa, it’s a fairly remote place where you can really be one with nature and bask in the sun while swimming in the sea.
