Tour A is the route that made El Nido famous. In a single day you paddle into the turquoise shallows of the Big Lagoon, slip through a hidden crack into the Secret Lagoon, and snorkel the coral gardens off Shimizu Island before lunch on the sand at 7 Commando Beach. It is the classic introduction to Bacuit Bay, and for most first-time visitors, the highlight of their trip to Palawan.

The route

What you'll see

Big Lagoon

The signature stop. Glide between towering limestone walls into a vast, shallow lagoon the color of jade. Best explored by kayak, with the cliffs rising straight out of the water.

Small Lagoon

Kayak or swim through a narrow opening into an enclosed lagoon hidden inside the rock. Quieter and more intimate than its big sister.

Secret Lagoon

Squeeze through a small crevice in the cliff face to find a pool of clear water ringed by stone. A little adventure that feels like discovering a hidden world.

Shimizu Island

The main snorkeling stop. Drop in over coral gardens busy with tropical fish, then dry off on the beach. Lunch is usually served here.

7 Commando Beach

Finish the day on a classic El Nido beach: powdery white sand, leaning palms, and warm shallow water. Time to swim, relax, or grab a fresh coconut.
