Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park

It’s not surprising at all when Palawan has been

recognized as the best island in the world by
international travel magazines. With its pristine
beaches and breathtaking lagoons, you will never be
disappointed at what’s waiting for you. One charming
treasure of Palawan that truly stands out is the Puerto
Princesa Subterranean River National Park.

It is one of the longest underground rivers in the world

that outflows directly to the sea, traveling five miles through a subterranean cave
system. Inside the Puerto Princesa Underground River, you will see karsts—natural
rock formations created by dissolving limestone—loom in every direction.

The best time to visit Puerto Princesa is during the dry season: November to May. The
warmest months are from March to May, while the wet season is from June to October.
Be sure to check weather updates from time to time to avoid unwanted circumstances
on your trip.

TRIVIA:
Some of the rock formations look
like objects and images such as a
horse, cacao fruit, a mushroom, and
the holy family.
