Palawan Island Hotels
Palawan:
The Last Frontier by James Brown
Featured
Palawan Island Hotels
Palawan is the Philippines'
largest province. Its undamaged ecosystem is home to untouched forests,
beautiful beaches and unpolluted waters offering a dazzling array of marine
life. With over 1,780 islands that stretch from the Mindoro Strait down
to the tip of Borneo, Palawan is the ultimate adventure destination.
Central Palawan
Puerto Princesa is the capital
of Palawan. It is the most ideal place to stay in when exploring central
and southern Palawan. There are several excursions which can be carried
out as day trips from Puerto Princesa. A three-hour drive to the Subterranean
River in Sabang is de rigueur when visiting Palawan. The river runs through
a limestone cave which is said to be the longest navigable river-traversed
tunnel in the world. If snorkeling or island hopping is the adventure of
choice, a day trip or an overnight stay at Honda Bay won't disappoint you.
Agencies and hotels in Puerto Princesa offer packaged tours around Honda
Bay. |

South Palawan
The south of Palawan does
not have as many attractions as its northern area, but it has caves and
waterfalls worth exploring. The Tabon Caves is a vast network of caves
where forty-seven thousand year-old human remains have been found in pre-historic
burial grounds. The caves can be reached by a thirty-minute boat ride from
Quezon.
North Palawan
The best places to visit
in North Palawan are the Bacuit Archipelago and Port Barton. Port Barton
is a town nestled on a beautiful beach which boasts of stunning sunsets.
With its serene and secluded atmosphere, it is a great place for families.
The Bacuit Archipelago consists of uneven limestone islands that emerge
from the waters of Bacuit Bay. It is the best place to do some exploring
on a Bangka, or snorkeling in the vibrant coral gardens, or having a picnic
on a deserted stretch of beach.

The Calamian Group
The Calamian Group is like
a small version of Palawan, complete with all the main attractions that
Palawan has to offer: pure, white-sand beaches, virgin rainforests, relaxing
accommodations, and spectacular dive and snorkeling sites. On top of that,
the Calamian Group is home to some attractions that the rest of Palawan
does not offer: the scenic lakes of Coron Island and wreck diving in Busuanga
Island. There are more than ten wrecks around Busuanga, which consist of
Japanese warships and merchant ships that were taken down by American planes
during World War II. The wrecks are found at varying depths which provide
diving opportunities for both beginners and seasoned divers. Coron Island
has two main attractions: Lake Barracuda and Lake Kayangan. Lake Barracuda
is popular with divers due to its uncommon levels of fresh, salt and briny
water. It can be reached by a difficult twenty-five meter climb over a
rough wall on the island. Lake Kayangan has three magnificent arms which
reach to the rough, jungle-covered areas of Coron Island. It can be accessed
by climbing a steep mountain wall. |
Palawan is truly a rare
gem. Every traveler should at least visit Palawan once during his or her
lifetime. With its unique biodiversity, unspoiled forests and beautiful
beaches, Palawan is the Philippines' last frontier.
