You deserve a vacay!

When in El Nido, don’t miss out on visiting Nacpan. There are a lot of things you can do in Nacpan aside from just swimming at the beach. If you are lucky enough to visit during hatching season, you will be able to see turtles! I spent half day traveling to nacpan. If you are coming from El Nido town, it’s around 30-40 mins ride and 20-30 mins ride from Lio Estate area. I hired a tricycle to take me there costs around Php 1000. I availed a day tour at Angkla Beach resort for Php 1000 (consumable of food and drinks and use of pool until 5pm). Pretty much enjoyed the entire stay if you are looking for a more relaxed and peaceful stay! #vacation #beach #elnido #nacpanbeach #palawan #philippines #relax #swimming #trip #turtles #sea

The most beautiful beach in Palawan!

The most beautiful beach in Palawan!

Nacpan Beach is about 45 minutes North of El Nido Town by car or by bike (approx. 22 km). Most people stay in El Nido and rent a bike (500-1000 ₱/day) to get to Nacpan beach. You can also get transfer by a van from El Nido downtown, but it will be more expensive. This is really the most beautiful beach in Palawan, but the day we were there it was impossible to swim due to the waves. So you should consider this before going there. Also sand fleas can be an issue, be careful and don't lie on the sand. #beachlife #nacpanbeach #philippines
