I have been looking for something different to see in El Nido as I’m finished with Island Hopping, visit to Nacpan & Calitang Twin Beach and many other things to do there that’s when I heard someone spoke of the Mangrove Eco Park.

I was asking the locals and many of them did not knew the Mangrove Eco Park until I stumbled upon someone who said that it was after Maremegmeg Beach from the town proper but she was not sure where it was exactly. With that hint we looked for a tricycle driver who would be willing to venture and search out this mystery Mangrove Eco Park. Luckily, we found one.

We rode the tricycle and after passing the drop-off point of Maremegmeg Beach about 500 meters we asked a sari-sari store along the road. It turns out they did not know where it was but knew of its existence.

9 Things to Do at Sabang in Puerto Princesa, Palawan

February 21, 2012 by Josiah 5 Comments

We took a packaged tour to Underground River last October of 2010 but somehow the backpacker inside me was saying that it is best to stay in Sabang than just be controlled by the packaged tours that will take you there for a day just to see the famous Subterranean River.

2. Take a tour in the Mangrove Forest

Paddle Boat Mangrove Tour

Learn why a Mangrove Forest is important by taking the paddle boat tour at the eastern end of town. Best to go there during low tide as you will see many animals that depend on the mangrove for survival and if you’re the daring type you can ask your tour guide to get you a fresh-from-the-wood tamilok that you may eat it.

3. Dip in Sabang Falls

 

Sabang Falls

Ever heard of a waterfall facing the sea? That’s the shortest way that I could describe Sabang Falls but there’s more to it than just a falls, it’s actually where the people of Sabang get their water. But you can take a dip at the basin below because the water
