Dubbed by some as the most beautiful island in the world, Palawan looks like a tranquil haven designed for indulging in blissful luxury. The beaches, lagoons and mountainside resemble a postcard picture; it’s no wonder so many end up staying for much longer than intended. Remarkably, considering the beautiful surroundings and peaceful atmosphere, Palawan has remained relatively untouched by tourism and is fairly relaxed all year round. Many tourists choose to travel up the shoreline to explore the jungle like environment – an idyllic setting for those who enjoy an adventure in an exotic location. At the top of the itinerary for most tourists are the alluring lagoons dotted around the island; it’s possible to jump off cliffs into mystical aqua waters before basking in the glorious sunshine. If that sounds like a little too much effort, Nacpan Beach and Long Beach provide the perfect conditions for a relaxing holiday in the sun. For an excursion that’s somewhere in between cliff jumping and sunbathing, underground river tours, snorkelling and scuba diving are all available, offering tourists the chance to explore the depths of the encompassing water.
Boat trips are a popular way to travel around Palawan due to the long stretch of water and abundance of small fishing towns. Jeepneys, which are like shared pick-up trucks, are also a very cheap and convenient way of getting around. Alternatively, rental car companies are in operation around the town.
Puerto Princesa has perhaps been unfairly dubbed as a resting spot between more popular tourist destinations in the Philippines. Sure, the day trips to remote beaches, gorgeous countryside and thriving bar and club scenes are remarkably convenient, yet there is much more to the city than just transport links. The Underground River is one of the highlights of the Philippines; alluring caves and mysterious caverns are engulfed by aqua waters and beautiful scenery, allowing visitors to witness unique foliage and rare wildlife before enjoying a sumptuous buffet lunch. As spectacular as the river may appear, it does take a while to reach; for an easier journey it may be worthwhile heading to Honda Bay for a relaxing day in the still bodies of water. If swimming in exotic water and exploring enigmatic caves isn’t your thing, there is a wide range of alternative activities. Ugong Rock is a utopia for adrenaline junkies; the jagged cliffs and towering mountainside are ideal for rock climbing and hiking, affording breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. For those who prefer to spend their time indoors, speciality museums are dotted around the centre, showcasing the cultural history of Puerto Princesa.
Jeepneys (shared pick-up trucks) dominate the road and offer set routes around the city, usually for very cheap prices. Tricycles are another popular way to get around, though make sure you remember the name of your street as many sound very similar.
