Port Barton Holidays

Port Barton Holidays

Tucked between the more famous stops of El Nido and Puerto Princesa, Port Barton is a quieter, more laid-back alternative for travellers wanting a slower pace without missing out on Palawan’s natural beauty. This small coastal village sits along a peaceful bay and offers a mix of beach relaxation, island-hopping adventures, and nature-based activities suited to a wide range of travellers. Snorkelling is one of the highlights here, with island-hopping tours that take visitors to vibrant coral reefs, sea turtle spots, and sandbars that emerge with the tides. Beaches like White Beach and Coconut Beach offer soft sand, calm waters, and the kind of peaceful atmosphere that’s becoming harder to find elsewhere in Palawan.

For those keen to explore on land, there are jungle trails leading to waterfalls like Pamuayan and Bigaho, perfect for a short hike and a refreshing swim. Travellers looking for more independence can rent kayaks or paddleboards to explore nearby coves and reefs at their own pace. Scuba divers will also find plenty to enjoy, with dive shops offering access to coral gardens and PADI certification courses.

Beyond the outdoor appeal, Port Barton has a small-town charm that adds to the experience. The village itself is walkable, the locals are friendly, and there are a growing number of guesthouses and eco-resorts that cater to travellers looking for something simple and genuine.
