Palawan is the fifth largest island in the Philippines. The entire island is of volcanic origin, there are numerous thermal springs and a central mountain chain whose summit Mantalingajan is 2086 m high. The capital with a population of 130,000 is Puerto Princesa. The name was given to the city because it is the "princess of all ports" because it has a very secure and well protected harbor.
Cruise offers to the port Puerto Princesa,Palawan / Philippines
The city itself has only a few sights to offer. Among them are the cathedral, the Palawan Museum and the lively market. Otherwise, you can hire smaller or larger vehicles with drivers and go to the enchanting Puerto Princesa National Park. There are spectacular caves, an underground river and an almost unlimited variety of animal and plant species.
Diving is possible in the sea, but certainly not as recommendable as in other places. To this purpose most restaurants are a fast seller, not only for those who want to regain strength after the strenuous trips.
