Around town in El Nido
Here is a quick look at El Nido by someone just passing through town on the way to Manila.
If given the option to only visit one place in the Philippines it would have to be El Nido, Palawan.
There is a well established tourist infrastructure, however there are no ATM machines yet in this town.
If you happen to run short, you can get cash advances on your credit card at either the Petron dealer or at the Artcafe.
Petron charges 6 percent and Artcafe charges 8 percent.

There are lots of places to stay right on the beach.
There was a plan to dredge out the bay so bigger ships could dock there but local resentment caused that plan to be canceled. Good call!
The market is a ways out, but vendors set up in front of the municipal building downtown selling fish and vegetables on Wed and Sat mornings.

Hey dp,
what’s the name of the place in one of your pictures that has a caption of – There are lots of places to stay right on the beach.
please email me.
Thanks.
Hi cyril,
I am not sure – sorry. Most of the accommodation in El Nido is right on the beach.
There is a big variety – it might be best to just arrive and pay for one night only while you do a bit of exploring and see if you want to switch to a different place.
cheers
