The drive to El Nido is an adventure in itself. It took us about 6.5 hours, including pick up of all the other passengers in Puerto Princessa (we were the first pick up). A couple bathroom breaks, a lunch stop, and two car sick kids later, we arrived in El Nido at the Arkitel Bed and Breakfast. We had been warned by friends about the drive, which was pretty much one switchback after another for the entire drive. I strongly recommend, if you ever do this drive, that you pack some gravol...just in case. We already stopped to pick up a supply for the drive back...so fingers crossed, we'll be good.
Beautiful views on the drive.
Palawan countryside.
After a long day of travel we decided to spend the rest of the day at Marimegmeg Beach. It is just 4km from El Nido town...so very easy to get to.
Beautiful beach. We were here at low tide so not ideal for swimming, but it was breathtaking.
Lounging on the beach.
Cool swings provide seating at the bar.
We LOVE the beach!
Always a beautiful sunset on the beach.
Waiting for our drinks. The kids didn't want to leave so we decided to sit and relax, even though our walk back along the beach would be in the dark. There was only one place where we could get a cyclo back to town.
My fav pic of the day!
