Palawan Escapade 2014 (Part 6)

Last Hooray in Palawan!

On day 6, we bid farewell to El Nido. We returned to Puerto Princesa by around mid-afternoon. We then went back to Mercado de San Miguel to buy souvenirs and “pasalubong” for our families. After that, we rested to prepare ourselves for dinner and the Iwahig Firefly Watching.

We had dinner at Bilao at Palayok which is located near the airport. We had a boodle fight type of dinner (where all the food is placed on banana leaves and people will eat them using their hands).

Boodle Fight!

Iwahig Firefly Watching

This would be our last place to visit in Palawan. We hopped on the same mini bus that took us from the Underground River and El Nido. The site for the firefly watching is Iwahig River. We waited for a couple of minutes for our turn. Then the tour started.

Waiting Area

I apologize for not having pictures because it’s so dark that nothing comes up. Even a normal DSLR camera will not work also.

There will be a guide that will accompany you and will tell information related to the firefly watching.

Once you’re there, you can see lots of fireflies flashing their natural light. The mangroves that the fireflies live were like Christmas trees! That’s all I can say. That’s how speechless I was.  

This ends our visit in Palawan. I enjoyed every part it. I hope you enjoyed it too. I definitely recommend you to visit Palawan someday. Mark this adventure in your bucket list. You won’t be sorry that’s for sure!

See you guys later!
