Palawan Pictorial

I could babble on yet again about emerald bays and mystical karst islands, but they say a picture is worth a thousand words, and for Palawan, that’s twice as true. So to share this wondrous region, I could either write a small book or present you with our latest pictorial.

Kayaking and Snorkeling Palawan

By Thomas on July 21, 2010 | 4 Comments »

Craving a little more adventure, Tony and I have been exploring Palawan’s beautiful coast by sea kayak. From the karst-enclosed coves of Coron Island to the hidden beaches of El Nido, we have been paddling to discover Palawan beyond the tourist bangka tours.
