- Shimizu Island - One of the numerous islands dotting Bacuit Bay in El Nido, Palawan. As this is a popular spot, it may get crowded during the day. A snorkeling area is located just off the island.
- Payong-Payong Beach - Another popular white-sand beach on Miniloc Island. Here, you can either get the thrill of swimming amidst the strong waves or just savor the chill vibe of splashing around gentle waves.
- Secret Lagoon Beach - A very popular beach on Tour A. Concealed behind the towering karst cliffs, the Secret Beach seems like a precious masterpiece that the dark limestone walls need to protect at all cost.
- Seven Commando Beach - Its long sloping stretch of fine sand and coconut trees welcome the guests after a long day of island hopping. It is yet to be confirmed how the beach got its name, but one consistent story is that of the 7 soldiers who got stranded here during WWII. Whether that story is true or not, the important thing is happily spending your much-deserved holiday here before marching back to work.

El Nido Day Tour- Highly Recommend! - My family and I had a lovely time on the tour and appreciate the high level of organisation and consideration of needs greatly.
Our tour guide on the boat, Kuya Nep was very well informed and expertly crafted our tour to get the most out of each island. He also helped my mother (senior woman) get the most out of the trip even when she doesn’t swim. Very grateful for his excellent service.
Could not be more highly recommended!

Such a Beautiful Stay - It was an amazing stay. I would highly recommend that this is the BEST place in terms of its location and hospitality. The service, the food, the pool, the rooms- absolutely everything was amazing for our stay. We would come back to this space in a heartbeat.

Amazing experience - It is a long drive from Puerto but once you get there, it is all worth it. The driver was nice and accommodating. The activities were so good and the scenery was breathtaking especially the Big Lagoon. Food was yummy as you get hunngry for lunch. Cheers to everyone involved in organising

Had the most wonderful experience! - Best tour agency experience! They helped me arrange my transportation from the airport in Puerto Princesa to El Nido and then helped me plan all the tours. Even with weather conditions they were flexible with me to even create a custom land tour around El Nido. Very communicative on WhatsApp the whole time too. Highly recommend Corazon to everyone visiting Palawan and El Nido!

Beautiful Island Vacation - Getting to see El Nido was a special experience. It was very convenient that we were able to be picked up and dropped off from Puerto Princesa and yet still see this beautiful spot. The transportation was very efficient and the staff on the boat were excellent. They were especially helpful with our 4-year old son and made sure he was taken care of. There was a little confusion getting on and off the boat, but aside from that it was a great experience.

Fun, but sticky ride home. - Only problem was…. After a long fun day in the sun, salt water, and sand, the tour did not provide a place to clean up or change clothes before the long 6 hour drive back to Puerto Princesa.

Plan it yourself and it would be tons better - The tour itself was so lovely and so was el nido, however the van transfers were less than ideal. For the cost of the tour, you’d pay 1/3 (or less) the cost if you planned it yourself which would be extremely easy to get two transfers to/from el nido and book the tour. Highly recommend doing it yourself and saving $200. Pretty disappointed with the cost for what the transports were.

The nest with its defects and with its virtues - The drivers were a disaster, we returned with fear and anguish, in addition to traveling all cramped in a van of 6 when there were 8 of us and the driver's partner. However, they were great and the excursion to the nest was very good. What we liked most was the hidden lagoon. And they treated us well during the excursion.
