On our final day in Puerto Princesa, Philippines, we're staying on-resort and experiencing as many activities as possible before heading back home to Metro Manila.

It's day 3 in Puerto Princesa and we're spending it on the water and beaches of Palawan's many islands. Come with us as we island hop, enjoy lunch in the sand, stalk fireflies in the dark, and dine over the water and under the stars.

Our American family has set up a part-time home in Metro Manila, Philippines, but today we're off to experience one of the 7 new wonders of nature: the famous underground river of Puerto Princesa, Philippines.

After spending 3 weeks in our new second home of BGC, Metro Manila, we’re headed back into the jungles of the Philippines to explore Puerto Princesa, Palawan.

We have another marathon travel day ahead of us as we jump from the Philippines paradise here in El Nido, back to Manila for the better part of the day, and then jet off to Malaysia to mark our 22nd country visited in our worldwide travels. Even if all our flights depart on time, this journey gets us into Kuala Lumpur at 1am.

El Nido isn’t just one of the most popular destinations in the Philippines; it’s also one of the most beautiful spots on the planet. So we’re leaving our beachfront glamping tent for the day and heading out in search of adventure amongst the surrounding islands. But with so many hidden treasures to explore, which will be the most memorable?

It’s been 12 months since our first trip to the Philippines paradise of Palawan. But there’s an even more famous spot in this province and there’s no way we can go another year without seeing for ourselves how it compares.

No trip to the Philippines would be legit without visiting Coron island. This uninhabited jewel is popular for eco-tourism, world-class diving, and seeing WW2 shipwrecks. It’s also a favorite spot among Filipinos themselves, so you know it’s good.
