El Nido (Tour D) Beaches 4/16

IMHO, It's gonna be difficult if I try to differentiate each beach in Tour D because at the end of the day, they all look so similar! hahaha

So here's a compilation of all the beaches we visited~~

First stop, Ipil Beach!

It was so peaceful. 

There were only 2 groups (including us) when we went there(!) -this is the good point of Tour D haha

Next was, Natnat Beach

It was just a small beach with a good view of some mountains...

Then, Pasandigan Beach.

Lots of Coconut trees here!

7 Comandos -which I think is the most popular for foreigners.

Lots of chairs and tables on the beach front.

There's also a store selling overpriced fruit shakes and halo-halo! lol

Last stop was Papaya beach.

It was almost sundown when we arrived but I think it's also a really pretty beach

 based on the pics I saw on Ig :)

the beachlife!

Cadlao Lagoon, El Nido (Tour D) 4/16

YAS after months of negligence in posting, I can finally move on

and share with you the islands/beaches included in the E Nido Tour D package!

First stop, Cadlao Lagoon! 

Brief info about Tour D:

The tour is mainly composed of several beaches and this lagoon.

Hence, it's not as popular and diverse like the attractions on Tour A & C.

I myself also felt that all the beaches look the same already LOL

But I think this is still equally worth the trip.

Just manage your expectations and have a good time!

As I mentioned before in my 411 El Nido post, Cadlao is my most

favorite in this tour. Just like the Small and Big Lagoon, this is also very serene and beautiful.

Every angle was picturesque and the best part was that it's not crowded!

You see what I mean?? The whole lagoon all to ourselves!

You don't get this much in the other places.

Bliss...

One of the limestone formations in the lagoon ❤❤❤

Entalula Island, El Nido (Tour B) 4/16

Back with my El Nido posts! haha so sorry for the slow updates.

The lazy bug has bitten me again huhu

Anyway, I'll really try to finish all El Nido posts this month! so please

pray for me hehehe jk!

Entalula Island is where we had our lunch for the TOUR B iti.

It has a wide stretch of white powdery sand that's perfect for lounging

and recreation.

The island used to be exclusive for El Nido Resorts' guests but recently

they have divided it so that non-guests have an area to stay.

So don't be surprise if your guide tells you that you can't wander off at the other side of the beach!hehe

Our scrumptious lunch with the perfect view!

YUM! Lunch in El Nido is always as delish as this!

LOVE ❤❤❤❤

Snake Island, El Nido (Tour B) 4/16

Ahhh Snake Island, one of my super faves in El Nido.

If you adore sand bars like me, you'll go crazy for this one!

The island is named as such since the sand bar forms a curve similar to a snake.

It's also called Vigan island but I don't know the reason for that hehe

I'm not sure how long the sand bar is but it took me about 10 minutes to reach the opposite side.

The perfect moment to bask under the sun!

There's also a viewing deck at the top of the hill.

Don't worry, it's just a few steps up.. nothing serious!

Gorgeous view ❤❤❤

Cathedral + Cudugnon Cave, El Nido (Tour B) 4/16

Next stop after Pinagbuyutan is the Cathedral Cave.

We've also visited this before but you can only appreciate this area if you're on

a kayak or a small speedboat.

This is the entrance to the cave which unfortunately, I'd never know how the inside looks since our boat can't pass through --same situation on our first visit.

That being said, I recommend you just skip this if you're planning to do Tour B.

A bit of a downer since the only thing you get to do here is take photos by the entrance.

Then we headed straight to Cudugnon Cave which I think is much better than Cathedral.

We've also visited this before so we just decided to stay outside and beach bum haha

TBH, there's nothing amazing inside the cave anyway so just take artsy photos like this outside!

Pinagbuyutan Island, El Nido (Tour B) 4/16

I've actually done this tour the first time I went to El Nido years ago but our package tour combined Tours B & D so I had the pleasure to revisit some of the places included on Tour B.

This tour is all about caves and coves. 

It's not as action-packed as Tour C but nonetheless still worth visiting!

First stop for  Tour B was at Pinagbuyutan Island.

We didn't go here before so I was happy that this time I could see this beautiful island.

It was perfect! No crowds, calm waves, good weather -just us and the beach!

Like all the other beaches in Palawan, Pinagbuyutan boasts of a wide stretch of wide sand and turquoise waters. It's also good for snorkeling, so don't forget to bring your gear!

Spot my mom swimming while everyone else was cam-whoring hahahaha

This is certainly the #beachlife!

Helicopter Island, El Nido (Tour C) 4/16

The last destination in Tour C is Helicopter Island. 

It's also equally beautiful just like the others with its long stretch of white sand.

Clear, Turquoise waters surround the island -perfect for snorkeling or just beach bumming!

Oh, and in case you're wondering, it is named as such since the shape looks like a helicopter from an aerial view! 

Cool beans right? Though I'm not so sure how accurate the shape is haha

Look at that fine, powdery sand! 

excuse my shadow lol

Next up! Tours B & D ❤❤❤
