Your experience in the sparsely populated Palawan, an archipelago of 1,000+ islands, will be dictated by your choice, whether it’s “adventure,” “discovery,” “sanctuary,” or “luxury” you’re after. Still, at the end of a long day of snorkeling at a marine sanctuary, El Nido is extremely invested in preserving the land for the future and enriching the surrounding communities.
