About this trip
Ten days through the west coast of Palawan, moving between islands, waterfalls and small towns rather than settling into one resort.
You'll swim in Palawan's clear waters, wash off under waterfalls near Port Barton and try a local cooking class in El Nido. In Coron the pace shifts toward the water, with wreck diving and stretches of open beach time.
It's built for group travel and island hopping, with a mix of activity and downtime, and camping features alongside more standard stays.
