Boating on Palawan

Palawan’s boating centres are El Nido, on Bacuit Bay with its dozens of limestone islands and lagoons, and Coron further north. Days are spent island hopping by boat between hidden lagoons, white beaches and snorkelling spots, usually on set routes inside protected areas.

Where to go by boat

  • Big Lagoon

    Lagoon enclosed by limestone cliffs near El Nido, entered by kayak or swimming.

  • Seven Commandos Beach

    Long, palm-shaded white beach on Bacuit Bay.

  • Kayangan Lake

    Clear lake on Coron Island, reached by wooden steps over a viewpoint.

  • Siete Pecados

    Seven small limestone islets off Coron town with coral gardens for snorkelling.

Tip: El Nido lies within a managed protected area with environmental and lagoon fees, boats may not enter the Big Lagoon, and life jackets are required on lagoon tours; bring reef shoes for the sharp limestone.
