Palawan Islands, Philippines

Palawan, an island province southwest of Metro Manila, is revered as one of the Philippines' and Asia 's most haunting and final frontiers.

Palawan, the country's last environmental frontier, is blessed with 1780 islands and islets most of which have irregular coastlines that make excellent harbors. Thick forests covering these steeply sloped mountains assure adequate watersheds for rivers and streams. Palawan Island is surrounded by a coral shelf that abounds with varied and colorful marine life, hence the island province has been declared a nature sanctuary. The province boasts of extraordinary scenic wonders like El Nido Palawan, St. Paul Palawan Underground River, Tabon Caves and Honda Bay Islands.

Puerto Princesa Palawan is the capital.
