Frequently Asked Questions about Palawan Attractions

What types of attractions can I find in Palawan?

Palawan is renowned for its natural wonders, offering world-class island hopping tours, hidden limestone lagoons, the UNESCO-listed Underground River, wildlife sanctuaries, and pristine white-sand beaches.

How do I choose the right attractions for my visit?

Focus on your specific base location. Choose El Nido for dramatic limestone cliffs and lagoons, Coron for shipwrecks and crystal-clear lakes, or Puerto Princesa for caves and city tours.

When is the best time to visit Palawan attractions?

The dry season from November to May offers the calmest seas for boat tours. To experience attractions like the Big Lagoon or Kayangan Lake with the best lighting, aim for morning visits.

Should I book Palawan tours and tickets in advance?

Yes, booking in advance is highly recommended, particularly for the Puerto Princesa Underground River and popular El Nido island hopping tours, which have daily visitor caps.

Are attractions in Palawan suitable for families?

Many beach destinations and the Underground River are family-friendly. However, some island hopping stops require swimming from the boat or hiking steep steps, so check specific tour details for children and seniors.

How do I get between different attractions?

For island hopping, boats are the primary mode of transport. On land, tricycles are great for short distances, while vans and buses connect major hubs like Puerto Princesa and El Nido.

Are there combination tours available?

Yes, many operators offer combo island hopping packages (such as combining Tour A and C in El Nido) allowing you to visit multiple lagoons and beaches in one day to maximize your time.

How can I avoid crowds at popular spots?

Consider booking a private boat tour which allows you to leave earlier than the standard group boats, or visit during the shoulder seasons (June or October) when tourist numbers are lower.
