When In Palawan
Our Palawan Journey
(travelogue)
We know Palawan is a wide place to roam around, there's various tourist spots and adventurous place that one's could visit. Since it's our first time visiting Palawan, we inquired a resort so that we could relax and have a place that we could stay at for a whole week. They offered us drinks at first as we enter the resort. What I witness still gives me goosebumps, the Palawan Island is much more beautiful and certainly lives on my expectation about such place. I personally think that this place contains much more undiscovered tourist destinations and unexplainable enjoyable adventures.
In our first night in the resort, we actually saw a bloody moon, which I have never seen in my entire life, it seems frightening but at the same time it looks awesome as the stars surrounds it. In my perspective, this symbolizes unity among the people which can be seen in our culture and values. After witnessing that wonderful bloody moon, we take a nap and wake up early in the morning. At 6:00 AM we saw the beautiful sunrise and after that staffs in the resort serves us breakfast. We enjoyed the food very much. The second place that we are planning to visit that day was El Nido. After eating our breakfast we immediately travel to El Nido. From the resort that we are staying in, which is Blue Palawan Resort, it takes 4 hours to get to El Nido. After arriving, we saw a bunch of monkeys hanging around so as another memorable experience to us, Joshua, Jake, and Yukie feeds them bananas.
Palawan Journey And itineraries
1st Itinerary : SNORKLING
We started our El Nido journey with the three monkeys we encounter, As we arrive to another resort, we asked people how much does private touring around the place cost . They offered us 9000 pesos promo for a tour in a whole day and in that promo the food is already included. The price is really worth it so we took that promo and started our journey around the whole place. At 8:00 in the morning we enjoyed SNORKLING, we encountered some small fishes, Trisha and Jaslyn tried to catch those fishes but it was very elusive and hard to catch. That is our first itinerary in that place.
2nd Itinerary : SECRET BEACH
3rd Itinerary : HELICOPTER ISLAND
The staffs offered us a cottage so that we can sit and relax. Jake, Mich, Joshua and Trisha roasted some fish and chicken breast for our lunch. There's nothing beats the experience of eating while looking at the beautiful beach. The 2nd itinerary we try is the SECRET BEACH, wherein it is an underwater experience inside a cave. The 3rd itinerary is the HELICOPTER ISLAND wherein it features boats that Palawan people made. After that nonstop experience we decided to get back at the resort and prepare for another adventure for tomorrow.
4th itinerary : NACPAN BEACH
5TH ITINERARY : LAS CABANAS BEACH
4th itinerary was most beautiful and memorable for our squad, it is visiting NACPAN BEACH, this the place were we enjoyed visiting the most, we also tried the delicious PORK TOCINO COMBO. The 5th itinerary is visiting LAS CABANAS BEACH wherein we bought souvenirs. We have enough money to explore Palawan, so for addition in our journey we visit somewhere else but in Palawan, we visit the TARAW CLIFF HIKE. It is very high so it took us more than one hour to get in the peak of the cliff. After that cliff hiking experience, we decided to get down and find something to eat. At that moment, we decided to try street foods. The street food that we tried was a pancake which is somewhat looks more fluffy than the usual pancakes. We buy not more than 30 pieces of it and it only cost us 150 pesos.
