Coron
Our last stop in the Philippines was Coron, an island on the Northern tip of Palawan. To try something new, we decided to not book a hotel but to get our accommodation with Airbnb.

Our last stop in Palawan was El Nido, famous for the best island hopping tours.

How to reach the Jungle Bar There are three ways to reach the Jungle Bar. The first is to take a boat from the port to White Beach … [Read more...] about Jungle Bar- the coolest place in Port Barton
Sabang and Port Barton
At the start of our Palawan adventure, we stayed one night in Puerto Princesa. From there we wanted to make our way over Sabang and Port Barton to El Nido, one of the big highlights of the Philippines. Sabang The little town, 3 hours away from Puerto Princesa is most famous for its underground river. We arrived around lunch time and wanted to do the tour right away but the host of our accommodation recommended to go the next morning before … [Read more...] about Sabang and Port Barton
