"CAPTIVATING" AND "ENCHANTING" EL NIDO


    Located in the northern most part of mainland Palawan covering a total of approximately 50,000 hectares of land, El Nido is one of the jewels of Palawan.  Its unrivaled beauty rests on its massive limestone islands, bordered by powder-fine beaches, with cliffs jutting from translucent waters.  El Nido is a unique travel destination well-suited for those who want to commune with nature.  It was first declared a marine reserve and later a protected area by the Philippine government.
