Pamuayan waterfall is a must-visit spot in Port Barton, San Vicente. It is located just 15 minutes away from town by motorbike. This incredible waterfall has a large cascade and a deep pool where you can swim and relax. The spot wasn’t crowded during our visit, less than 10 people were there. We had a really good time. Totally recommended! . . . #philippines #palawan #waterfall #nature #portbarton #sanvicente #naturelover

White Beach is a must-visit spot to visit while staying in Port Barton, Palawan island. It is a peaceful and stunning beach with soft sand and clear waters. It is perfect for swimming and relaxing. While there aren’t many facilities, you can kayak or take a boat to another small island. In my case, I rented a motorbike and I enjoyed the morning there. The scenery is great! . . . #philippines #philippinestrip #palawan #beachlife #beaches #beachvacation #whitebeach

The best way to get to know the Philippines! Way better than the crowded island hopping tours in el Nido where you rush from island to island not being able to appreciate the beauty of the Palawan area! If you are looking to get of the beaten path, great snorkeling and explore amazing islands and beaches without annoying Asian tourists with gopros and lifevestes, this is the place for you. 🤍 Amazing place, “last” paradise in the wold!! 😉 If you like camping, you`re going to love this place. And even that you`re not a big fan of camping, you can still stay easily couple of nights here. So quiet and peaceful place. You can just stay in a hammock whit a good book or go to explore islands nearby. Snorkeling was an amazing as well. Definitely recommend this place to everyone. #beachlife #philippines #palawan #portbarton #beachlife #foodie mazingview #beaches #relax #whitesand #island Travel ##

#beachlife I booked a round-trip flight for my guest from Davao to Puerto Princesa, Palawan through Trip.com, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish! The outbound flight was on May 6, 2025, via Philippine Airlines, with a connecting route, and everything went smoothly. My guest arrived in Puerto Princesa (PPS) without delays and with no issues at all. For the return flight, they flew back to Davao on June 18, 2025, via Cebu Pacific, this time on a direct flight — quick and comfortable. #travel During their stay, they explored Port Barton, swam at Estrella Falls, and relaxed in San Vicente. The beauty of Palawan left a lasting impression. I’m thankful to Trip.com for making the whole booking process easy and reliable, both for the connecting flight and the return direct trip. Highly recommended for stress-free travel planning!

The beauty of the Philippines

#philippinestrip When you think of Palawan, you probably imagine limestone cliffs, turquoise lagoons, and pristine white-sand beaches. But what if I told you that this slice of paradise also has a beach where you can swim with pigs? That’s right, there’s a “Pig Beach” in Palawan, and it might just be one of the most bizarre yet adorable travel experiences in Southeast Asia. Located near #portbarton , a sleepy coastal town in #palawan , Pig Beach is exactly what it sounds like—a tropical beach where friendly pigs roam freely and love a good swim. Unlike the famous Pig Beach in the Bahamas, this one feels more rustic and intimate, with fewer crowds and a more authentic local vibe. The pigs here aren’t wild. They’re looked after by the locals and are used to tourists bringing snacks and taking selfies with them. It’s both hilarious and heartwarming to watch them wade into the shallow water as if they’re professional beachgoers. Port Barton has an increasing number of eco-friendly resorts and cozy beach huts. I booked a beautiful bungalow with ocean views through Trip.com, and waking up to the sound of waves was pure magic.

#summervacay Tucked between El Nido and Puerto Princesa, Port Barton is a quiet hideaway in Palawan that feels like a gentle pause from the world. It’s small, laid-back, and surrounded by clear waters and island beauty. Our days were spent island hopping, snorkeling with sea turtles and walking barefoot on soft sandbars. Lunch was often fresh seafood served right by the beach, with nothing but the sound of the waves in the background. One of the places that stayed with me was White Beach simple, uncrowded and deeply peaceful. There’s no schedule here, no noise — just slow days, friendly smiles, and nature at its best.

Tucked away on Palawan’s coast, this small village offers crystal-clear waters, white sandy beaches, and a peaceful atmosphere without the crowds of El Nido or Coron. Spend your days island hopping to hidden lagoons, snorkeling with sea turtles, or just swinging in a hammock as the sun sets over the bay. The vibe here is slow, local, and incredibly welcoming—perfect for travelers who want to disconnect and soak in nature. If you’re looking for that untouched piece of paradise, Port Barton is it. #PortBarton #PalawanParadise #PhilippinesTravel #HiddenGem #IslandVibes #TropicalEscape
