Palawan Holidays
A nature lover's paradise
The largest province in the country, we love the natural beauty of Palawan with its immaculate beaches, unexplored coral reefs, unusual rock formations and an underground river that is now one of the world's new seven wonders of nature. Palawan itself actually consists of Palawan island plus several other groups of islands including Coron, Kalayaan and Busuanga. There are several private island resorts here so if you're looking for an exclusive retreat this is the place for you. Maintaining all of its incredible natural beauty it's no surprise Palawan is one of the Philippine's top attractions.
