EL NIDO MUNICIPALITY
El Nido, a municipality
at the northwestern tip of the Province of Palawan,
is located 430km southwest or Manila and 238km
northwest of Puerto Princesa City.
The name "El Nido' comes
from the edible nests of the Swiftlets (collacalia
fuciphaga) found in the crevices of the limestone
cliffs. These nests, "nido" in Spanish, are
considered a delicacy in many parts of Asia.
Scenic landscape,
crystal clear waters, and relative isolation attract
and fascinate most travelers to El Nido. The 45
Islands, islets, and surrounding sea present endless
opportunities - perfect for sunbathing and picnic
lunches. Exploring the islands of El Nido you may
find ancient caves with fascinating dripstone
formations or be surprised by stretches of limestone
walls that conceal a world of calm lagoons
El Nido is a showcase of
Palawan's geology and diverse wildlife where
majestic limestone cliffs, estimated to be 250
million years old, arise from pristine waters with
innumerable species of tropical fishes and corals,
and three species of endangered sea turtles. El
Nido's forests are host to more than 100 species of
birds, a large number of which are endemic to
Palawan. Being one of the most important sites of
biological diversity in the country, the Philippine
government elevated the status of El Nido from a
marine reserve to a protected area
