Here’s my 2nd Palawan entry! Amazing on how I was able to publish 2 consecutive blog posts ! Ha! Ha! I guess, I’m just in the mood today to finish all my backlogs.
Here’s a link to my Day1 post, just in case. CLICK
2nd day, we woke up super early because we’re waiting for the “go signal” from coast guard if they’ll allow the tours again. It was a fine morning without rain or windy feels.
But sorry to say, it was a freaking NO once more. Frustration at it’s finest already! That moment was a decision point! We have to choose if we’ll go to Puerto for the Underground River tour and leave at night OR just wait another day and take the risk if the coast guard will allow us to take island hopping tour the next day. It was an unimaginable decision because our efforts to see the wonders of El Nido through the diff islands have been gambled already, Thank you very much Typhoon Mario for ruining our itinerary (sarcasm intended) Anyway, Tay Miloy's offered again another inland tour. We took the offer, of course!
went to the shore area to just check the calm waters of El Nido. huhubels
went back to our inn and prepare for another day of inland tour!
First stop was the historical Ille Cave, known to have diverse range of deposits as old as 10,000 years! Whoah!
Another trekking experience, but this time milder than the last day we trekked to Bulalacao.
Enchanting ambience or should I say creepy?
Tour guide warned us to be careful with bodies of waters like this. This is super deep.
That's the Ille Cave! postcard ready!
Photo op before entering the cave.
Another first!
Conquerors of Ille Cave! :)
Going back to our van was a struggle already! It wasn't easy!
I was imagining that time of crocodiles and reptiles that might appear in front of me. haha!
our tour guide, I forgot his name, he was so kind he got us a ripe jackfruit.
Lunchtime was nearing already when we finished the Ille Cave trail. We headed right away to our next destination, Tapik Beach in Barrio Sibaltan, still in El Nido but it's a remote area already. It took us an hour to reach the venue.
It was all worth the travel and paggutom when we finally saw the secluded beach.
Thanks to Tay Miloy’s tour guide Kuya Lionel!
Seeing this poster made me wonder, these sea creatures really exist! O_O
This was another stunning view for my eyes! Rustic feels!
This house was where we stayed and eat our lunch.
Tay Miloy's usually includes lunch in all their tours. We had sinigang na baboy, hipon, ensaladang talong, grilled liempo, pineapple, watermelon and ripe mangoes!
This was exactly the view I was looking at in my photo above.
It was like a castaway adventure! Mother Nature at its simplest form :)
Sibaltan is one of the oldest Baranggay's in Palawan.
So you think you've seen much of what El Nido can present?
Wait until you see the baranggays on the other side, those that haven’t been touched by money-making tourism yet.
Those sand ripples <3
We were back at El Nido central for dinner, we capped off the night by having sumptuous seafood din din by the shore or as they call it The Aplaya.
