El Nido Marine
Reserve occupies 96,000 hectares and boasts diverse ecosystems such as rainforest,
mangroves, white sand beaches, coral reefs, and limestone cliffs. It is now one of the country's premier
tourist destination.
Puerto Princesa Subterranean Underground River National
Park is the world's longest underground river measuring 8.2 km and has recently been
nominated for The New 7 wonders of the World.

You will find the entrance at the mouth of a cave in a beautiful lagoon about 50
km north of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan. From here the river winds through formations of stalactites
and stalagmites and several large chambers before flowing directly into the South China
Sea.
The Hundred Islands National Park is
composed of 123 islands (124 at low tide) and covers an area of 1,844 hectares. The islands lie at the south
west corner of the Lingayan Gulf, just off Alaminos City in the province of
Pangasinan.
Over the years the islands have inspired countless legends - some tell of
mermaids that once mystified fishermen; others tell of a primeval giant who lost his
ladylove.
The islands are easily accessible from Bali Hai, either by hired boat or by road
to Alaminos City.
