The best time to visit Puerto Princesa would be the summer months from April to June, when seas are usually calm. Humidity is high but annual average temperatures are comfortable at 27 degrees Celsius. Nights may be chilly during rainy days, especially in forested areas, so it is advisable for visitors to bring warm clothing at all times.

One of Puerto Princesa’s main tour attractions and a source of pride for the locals is the Subterranean River National Park one of the world’s new 7 wonders of nature. The site features a very spectacular limestone landscape display in its navigable underground river, which flows directly to the sea. The underground river represents a habitat for conservation biodiversity.

Galloping dolphins are a common site on Honday Bay, Puerto Princesa, an additional treat to the locals and tourists while they go island hopping.

Puerto Princesa is also the jump off point for Honda Bay which is rich in pristine white beaches with fine white sand. You can find them anywhere in the island. These water sceneries provide quite a contrast to the island’s green canopies. The clear emerald-green waters are truly a fascinating sight to behold. The islands in Honda Bay give the beach lovers a much sought-after uncrowded and unspoiled haven that one can never find anywhere else in the Philippines.
