The 10 Best Beaches in El Nido, Mimaropa
Why settle for a beachfront hotel when you can stay right over the ocean in a cottage on stilts? And why settle for any old dive site when you can snorkel in an orchid-walled lagoon? El Nido is known as the Philippines' last frontier, and if you're looking for magnificent beaches in an unspoiled setting, it's a perfect place for you to vacation.

If I would come to El Nido one more time I would probably stay at Marimegmeg. A 10min tricycle ride from El Nido Town is this really nice and lively beach with tempting beach bars, nice restaurants and even a few clothing stores. I would highly recommend the combination we had: taking a zipline that ends just near the beach, having happy hour cocktails and watching sunset and later having a dinner in The Nesting table within a short climb from the beach. Perfection!

This was our stop for lunch during our tour. We ate at the beach and swam around the place. It is small and the place gives off a very deserted island feel. Lots of photo opportunities here.

Go ahead, pack and fly to the Islands of the Philippines! Two ways to get to El Nido from Manila: A direct flight from Manila to El Nido or a flight from Manila to Puerto Princesa, once landed in Puerto Princesa, it is quite the drive to El Nido (private van about 5-6 hours). Once in El Nido there are various companies that offer island hopping tours. TripAdvisor or your hotel can help you find a good operator. The prices of the tour are widely standard… but wait, ask if there is an extra cost i.e. eco-fee, kayak, etc. Going to see the Hidden Beach was quite a journey. You take Tour C from one of the El Nido Hopping Tours (Tours ABCD). When the tour boat gets to the island and docks, you first have to swim or float in some deep water (to get to the hidden beach), then upon reaching the shallow water you can start walking in the most calm, clear and warm water you can ever imagine… keep walking (if you wish, start snorkeling) until you get to this most amazing and pristine beauty of the hidden beach of this island. Once in the hidden beach, step back, relax on the white sandy beach and crystal clear ocean water and enjoy the amazing nature until you hear the horn of your boat warning you that it is time to go and do more island hopping. Absolute BEAUTY! A MUST see and make a memory!

The drive up to the beach could be a challenge for anyone inexperienced on a scooter. That being said anyone with experience will love the off-road track ! The beach is simply stunning. It’s untouched beauty with little to no development. My favourite beach in el nido.
