About this spot

The adventurous cousin of Tour A, heading to the outer islands of Bacuit Bay. Expect Hidden Beach tucked behind towering cliffs, Secret Beach that you reach by swimming through a rock opening, the abandoned Matinloc Shrine with a viewpoint over the karsts, and Helicopter Island for snorkeling. It's rougher on the open sea and sometimes cancelled when waves are high, but many travelers say it's their favorite day in El Nido.

Good to know

Madalas ba ma-cancel ang Tour C?

Medyo, kasi open sea siya. The coast guard cancels it when waves are big, so keep a spare day.

Is Secret Beach hard to reach?

You swim through a small opening in the rock. It's short but depends on tide and waves, so follow your guide.

Tour A or Tour C?

Tour A for lagoons and kayaking, Tour C for hidden beaches and a wilder feel. Many do both.
