Palawan, the largest island province in the Philippines, is perhaps one of the most underrated tropical destinations, given its incredible subterranean waters, rock formations, and rare wildlife from both sea and land. While its main island Palawan was deemed "The Best Island In The World" by Travel + Leisure magazine, its neighbouring islands are also dreamlike and suitable for hiking, diving, and horseback touring, among other recreational activities.
Among these islands, the fine white sand and bright blue water of El Nido is an unmatched tropical paradise and the primary gateway to the sublime Bacuit Archipelago with 45 stunning limestone cliffs. In addition, Coron Island is particularly famous for the Japanese World War II shipwrecks that have permanently anchored underneath its shores — though its views also make the site one of the most photographed in all of the Philippines.
