Table of Contents
1. What makes this tour so special?
I’m very excited! The El Nido Boat Tour is definitely one of my favorite experiences in Palawan. The natural beauty of the place is indescribable, and the best part is that every time I go back, I discover something new. It’s not just the islands; it’s the marine life, the activities, and the feeling of being so close to nature.
What surprised me the most was how untouched everything is. It’s like being in a movie, surrounded by crystal-clear waters and an entirely pristine environment.
But if I had to choose one favorite spot on the tour, I’d say Secret Lagoon.
That small lagoon, surrounded by towering rock walls, has something really magical about it. Sometimes it reminds me a little of El Nido in Thailand, but somehow Palawan has a unique touch that makes it even more special. Although, to be honest, I would have liked to spend a bit more time exploring some of the islands.
2. What are the best spots to do it on the tour?
Definitely, the best snorkeling spots in Palawan are some of the best in the world. Personally, I really enjoy Simizu Island, where you can swim with thousands of colorful fish and see coral in perfect condition. There’s also Talisay Beach, where you can often spot sea turtles. Those turtles fascinate me, especially because they’re so friendly. Being so close to them in their natural habitat is something you won’t forget.
3. What is the experience of seeing turtles in their natural habitat?
It’s always important to keep a respectful distance. Sea turtles in Palawan are protected, so you should never touch them or try to feed them. The best thing is to observe them from a calm distance, enjoying their natural behavior. In fact, most of the tour operators focus heavily on conservation, and that’s something I really appreciate.
4. Which particular tour operator would you recommend for people who want to take this tour?
If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure with guides who genuinely care about your experience, Green Gecko Tour is the way to go. What I love about them is their commitment to ecotourism and sustainability – it’s clear they’re dedicated to preserving the beauty of these places. The staff? They’re incredible. Always ready with a smile and packed with local knowledge, they make each stop feel like a new discovery.
5. Besides Snorkeling, what other activities can tourists do during the tour?
The El Nido Boat Tour isn’t just about the destinations; it’s about the journey itself. I’ve kayaked through tranquil lagoons, squeezed through hidden caves, and hiked up trails that reward you with some of the most breathtaking panoramic views. Honestly, you don’t have to be an adrenaline junkie to fall in love with this tour – whether you’re after adventure or simply want to take it slow and soak in the scenery, this tour has something for everyone.
6. What good advice to say when planning to take the El Nido Boat Tour?
Here’s my advice: go with an open heart. The best moments often come from the unexpected. Sure, the weather can change, or you might stumble upon a hidden gem on one of the islands, but that’s what makes this place so magical. Oh, and don’t forget the essentials – sunscreen, your camera for all those unforgettable moments, and most importantly, an adventurous spirit. And take time to chat with your guide. The stories they share about the islands are as fascinating as the places themselves in El Nido Boat Tour.
7. Final Aggregation
No matter how many times I’ve taken the El Nido Boat Tour, there’s always something new to discover. It’s the kind of place that keeps surprising you, no matter how familiar you think you are with it. If you love nature and adventure, this is the place to truly reconnect with the world around you.
