Puerto Princesa - General Info
Description:
Palawan is a beautiful, underdeveloped island lying west of the Visayas. This long, narrow island is fringed with white sandy beaches and there is a rich diversity of wildlife in the mountainous jungle which covers this most attractive destination.
Puerto Princesa lies approximately in the middle of the east coast.
Cruiser Highlights:
This is the best port of entry for the Philippines if coming from the south as fees are sensible. Subic Bay has high fees and Batangas (both on Luzon) is reported to be corrupt.
Position:
09°45.94’N, 118°43.89’E (Albancia YC).

Palawan has 1/4 of all the islands in the Philippines – numbering 1780 – and is inhabited by only 1% of the total population. The cruising is top class and as good as you will find anywhere worldwide in tropical cruising grounds.
