What an end to the trip! From Puerto Princesa we flew to Cebu and the immediately jumped on a bus down to Oslob. After 4 hours we arrived at the hotel and went straight to bed as it was an early start to see the whale sharks! In the morning we got picked up and driven to the area where they are. A guy then paddled us 500m out to sea and we jumped in and were surrounded by HUGE whale sharks! It is an animal I have always wanted to see and I couldn't have been hap...

We left El Nido at 7am in a packed minibus and arrived at our hostel called Sheebang in PP just after midday. The place is really good with a nice bar and huge food menu, perfect for us as we weren't planning on doing much while here.

The river was a pain to get...

Unfortunately both of us were sick for a few days but it didn't put a downer on the whole experience. Las cabanas beach was absolutely beautiful an...

On the 16th, we jumped on a flight from Manila to the small island of Busuanga to stay in Coron town which is part of Northern Palawan. The plane was a 100 meter prop plane that gave us an amazing view flying low over the ocean and a crazy landing as the runway was a sharp left turn to avoid some mountains as you approached the island! Coron was an amazing little town that has a very slow and relaxed pace of life. We stayed above corto dive shop in one of their ...
