Review & FAQ:

Secret Beach Palawan is one of several attractions in El Nido, sitting to the west and off-shore. This beach gets its name from the fact that it sits inside the apparent entrance to a cave. In addition to its seclusion and quiet, one of the main attractions of the Secret Beach is the mini rock pools that you will spot as you approach the sandy shores. You can get to the beach by yourself or come there as part of a tour if you prefer. Going that route will also let you see sites like Star Beach and Hidden Beach on the same day.
