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
