With the third long weekend of the year well on its way, what better way to spend it than going to the latest destination spot here in the Philippines: El Nido, Palawan. Whether you’re scuba diving 30 meters deep in the sea or just lazing around at the beach, there are many ways you can have fun this weekend without making much effort.

Fulfill your Brooke Shields fantasy and lounge around El Nido’s breathtaking cerulean lagoon during your stay. The Large Lagoon in particular features a spectrum of blues that are inherently unique to Philippine waters.
One of the best ways to explore the island is to ride a canoe, going from island to another. Wherever you may land, it will always be filled with beautiful calm waters and fresh sand. Before you Indiana Jones your way around, however, always make sure you at least have an idea where you want to head.
Instead of bumming in your underweat at home all day, why not bum at the beach? El Nido has many sandy beaches such as Nacpan and Calitang that is just 45 minutes away from town.
There is definitely more than one way to get wet here at El Nido that’s not limited to beaches. El Nido houses natural waterfalls like the Nagkalit-kalit Falls, where you can wade in fresh water and enjoy the forestry.
