⚠️ Conseils de Voyage Essentiels Palawan

🚤

Book a Private Tour

If you have 4 or more people, hire a private boat for Tours A/C in El Nido. You can negotiate to leave an hour earlier to beat the massive flotilla of shared boats to the lagoons.

💦

Bring a Dry Bag

A waterproof dry bag is an absolute necessity. Your things will get wet getting on and off outrigger boats (bangka) and from ocean spray.

👟

Wear Aqua Shoes

Many lagoons and secret beaches require walking over sharp jagged limestone or walking through water with sea urchins. Aqua shoes are mandatory.

💵

Bring Cash

While ATMs exist in El Nido and Coron, they frequently run out of cash or break down. Pay for hotels online and bring a stack of pesos from Manila.

🛡️ Assurance Voyage Recommandée

Get travel insurance for peace of mind.
