In El Nido, you literally swim with the fishes.
 
Let's get it started.
From Puerto Princesa, we traveled by land to reach El Nido. The ride took about 6 hours. 2 hours of concrete road and 4 hours of bumpy road.
Warm welcome at the office of Ultimate Adventure Palawan travel agency.
In the streets of Puerto Princesa
We had our stop over on this view deck. El Nido was just half an hour away from here.
We reached El Nido around 2:00 pm and headed directly to El Nido Boutique and Art Cafe to buy some stuffs for snorkling.
This was a famous restaurant in El Nido, we had our lunch here. Too bad I haven't take pictures of the food that we ordered. The taste of the food was tongue-smacking!
This view welcomed us. A very relaxing view indeed.
