Shared Tour B

DESCRIPTION

El Nido has an abundance of pristine islands and beaches waiting to be discovered. This whole day tour B will take you to some of the most beautiful coves in Bacuit Bay; 
Pinagbuyutan Island: Has soft powdery white sand comparable to the world's best beaches. The water is shallow for about a couple of meters from the shore and then a few meters away you will see a snorkeling area full of fishes. Get captivated by the emerald green color of the water and the phenomenal seascape fronting. 
Vigan /Snake Island: Located near Pangulasian Island, it is also referred to as, "Snake Island," because of the fine natural sandspit (s-shaped sandbar) that "snakes" off it shores. The sandspit is clearly visible only when the tide is low. On both sides of the sandspit are shallow swimming areas. Climbing the hill of the nearby island provide a glimpse of an awe inspiring seascape and a bird's eye view of Bacuit Bay while the boat crew prepare a sumptuous meals. 
Cudugnon Point and Cave: It is an important anthropological site, where jewelry and pottery dating back to the Sung Dynasty (960-1279 BC) were yielded. The anthropologists believe that the cave dwellers were from Borneo, and travelled across the ancient land bridge that connected Palawan from Borneo. A small opening hidden among the rocks near the beach reveals a cathedral like cave inhabited by sea sparrows. Inside you’ll see spectacular rock formations and a way to climb a small limestone hill. A truly wonderful experience. 
Pinasil Island and Cathedral Cave: The island has a cathedral-like cavern accessible by dinghy and kayak. Its cool interior is lit at certain times of the day by sunlight coming through an opening at its peak. This one of important sites for the busyadors or the birds' nest gatherers. 
Entalula Island : This picturesque destination has a distinct towering rock formation, powdery white shores, and waters that shimmer in various shades of emerald and blue on a clear day. The limestone and foliage dotting the island add a raw charm to the already beautiful beachscape.
