The Beautiful Nature of El Nido #7 Philippines
You are in clear blue sea, clear. The blue sky is perfect, like the blue sky in a children's painting. From this simple outrigger boat, you look in all directions. Limestone lime karst limestone, which is colored grayish black, towering in front of the eyes, incredible. Makes you feel so small, making you giggle in awe. Here and there are overlapping green trees and cliffs. Giant vertical stones appear here and there. The vertical cliffs of this rock cliff make you wonder, what kind of powerful force lifted him there, hundreds of millions of years ago?
At the base of the cliff, you see a beautiful white sandy beach. Ah, very dramatic of this scene. The cliffs are so tall and sturdy, the beach is so white and soft, the sea is so blue and fresh. Invites you to jump off your ship, and swim in the calm waters, reaching a soft white beach stretch, under the shelter of a giant cliff.
Behind the rock wall of a cliff, there is a paradise of the world. Its clear emerald lagoon. The secret beach is fine white sand with clear shallow water. All the shaded black cliffs rose into the sky. Peace is isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
Below the surface of the sea, there is a stunning coral reef here and there, which is home to many varieties of colorful tropical fish. Turtles, dugongs, rays, and sharks regard these waters as their homes.
This is the Bacuit Islands in El Nido, a piece of heaven on earth.
The natural beauty of Bacuit is so fascinating. El Nido is a paradise for those who love the sea. The name El Nido has long been a well-known Filipino community, but it is still new in the international ear. As a result, El Nido is still relatively quiet and the nature is still pure. The Bacuit islands have never looked crowded with visitors like Boracay and Bohol, two of the main tourist sites of the Philippines. Or like Halong Bay in Vietnam, which has similar cliffs. Here there are only small groups of people scattered in vast waters. Sometimes, along your eyes, there is only your boat. Make you feel the sensation, "this world is mine".
The natural beauty of El Nido invites film producers throughout the world. Survivor television series of Swedish and French version ever filmed here, also Amazing American Race. Even some scenes in the movie Bourne Legacy are filmed here too. Also here, Alex Garland was inspired to write "The Beach". The novel was later adapted as a movie with the same title, starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
El Nido is located on the northern tip of Palawan Island. The main town of El Nido itself is very small, the road from end to end only takes 20 minutes. Before tourists arrive to El Nido, fishing and bird nest collection is the main income of the local community. Now the tourism sector is a major economic factor. Inns and restaurants are popping up everywhere, especially along its white sandy beaches in a tiny bay.
On one side, there is a towering marble karst cliff and limestone, lining the city that has only a few of these main streets. Across the bay, stands beautiful Cadlao Island. The sea water in this bay is light blue, and the beaches are white sand. In the middle of this bay dozens of moored boats moored. These boats are called bangka which will lead you to the Bacuit Islands to find hidden paradise El Nido.
