Port Barton

Port Barton is a nice quiet fishing village in between Puerto Princesa and El Nido. It's becoming a popular destination for some beach time and island hopping. I visited this town overnight as I drove 150km from Puerto Princesa, so I didn’t get to do any island hopping, but I’ve hopped plenty of islands already during my stay here in Palawan.

Port Barton, Palawan, Philippines. This quiet fishing village is becoming one of new popular destinations among tourists for good reason. It's a welcome escape from the crowded El Nido. Along the nice beach are simple bars and restaurants offering fair prices in contrast to the overly expensive El Nido. Here in Port Barton you can go island hopping without having to share the beach with many others. Unfortunately I didn't have time myself to do any island tours and only spend one night here during a motorbike ride from Puerto Princesa. A great ride of 150 km taking about 3-4 hours.
