This is not a scenic spot, but the capital of Palawan. In a noisy and enthusiastic city, when you get off the plane, you can hear happy music at a small airport, which makes you fall in love with it all at once. The people here are friendly and enthusiastic, full of the flavor of the town.

    Suitable for simple couples and tourists who like quiet diving. There are few people in the fishing village and the villagers are simple. In addition to pulling business from you and asking you not to go out to sea, the low price is carefully considered. It is recommended to book a boat at the hotel, and there is only one person on the boat. The captain will prepare all kinds of seafood you like to eat for you. A few resorts are also very good, the price is low, the environment is good, the hot water is already very luxurious, generally not, there are already Chinese people who have opened a hotel there, welcome people who like quiet and diving. (For safety, I still remind deep-diving tourists to be licensed and two people. If you snorkel, there is no problem. This big fish pond is all contracted by you. The beautiful fish and coral are just below your reach. I am not wearing shoes. I am afraid to step on it and only dare to float. It is too cool.)

    If you book an island hotel, there will be a free pick-up service; you can also take a one-day tour group. There is only one hotel on the island, Dos Palmas (reserved by the name of the hotel search official website), about 70 rooms, all villas. Villas lined up along the side of the island. The rest of the island remained pristine and covered with jungle. After going to the island, it was basically isolated from the world. Wifi is available only at the reception centre in the centre of the island. In order to save power, each room has one hour of water and electricity outage in the morning and afternoon. Here, finally put down the mobile phone, the Spring Festival to grab a red envelope. It's quiet and far away, as if it's on the horizon. Lie down on the beach, subconsciously and prosperous modern society, developed network telecommunications opened the gap, the brain began to blank. The biggest activity on the island is water sports. If you are a good rower, you can sail around the island in a rubber boat. The sea around the island is very shallow, even many times, and we have to jump into the water to push the stranded boat. As we gradually glide on the boat and get farther and farther away from the shore, there is not a trace of panic and timidity in our hearts, because the water is clearer and clearer, and the wonderful scenery is more and more in front of us. Three or five groups of flying fish, line up across the sea, as we played in childhood, jump over. Even a few flying fish almost came to my face. You can only record this moment with your eyes. The world is really wonderful! Every hour on the island, there is a boat carrying tourists to the floating Pavilion in the sea to snorkel. It's more fun to go to the island or swim. As long as we overcome the fear of water, put on a life jacket, put on a mask of snorkeling, and dive into the water, we can see a world in the water. There are several snorkeling places in Princess Harbor. The coral and rock around the island are the richest, like an underwater palace. I hope I can take some beautiful pictures with a waterproof camera next time. There are not many choices in the island's diet, only in the restaurant of the hotel. Dinner buffet also includes breakfast. It's 100 RMB for one person. It's also very affordable. On New Year's Eve, the hotel specially changed into red tablecloths and hung small lanterns. A singing and dancing party and a grand fireworks were also held.

    From Manila to El Nido north of Palawan, Princess Harbor is a must. As the capital of Palawan, it feels like a small county in China. It's very busy and the traffic is a bit chaotic. We stayed overnight and chose the Acacia tree garden hotel near the airport. Although there were no stars, it was very nice, beautiful and comfortable.

    Aside from the famous Underground River tour, you may avail this half day city tour that we experienced during our stay in Puerto Princesa. We went to different places that obviously we really enjoyed. Like the Baywalk, Butterfly Garden , Crocodile farm, Kuyba Almonica, Mitra's Ranch , Baker's Hill .
