El Nido Private Island Hopping — Full Day Customised
About this tour
Why share Palawan with strangers? A private bangka charter puts the entire boat at your disposal — you set the pace, choose the stops, and linger as long as you like at your favourite spots. The boat fits up to 6 passengers comfortably, and your dedicated guide will help you design the ultimate El Nido day, mixing the best stops from all four tour routes based on your interests and the day's sea conditions.
Want to spend 2 hours kayaking inside the Big Lagoon, then skip straight to Hidden Beach without the usual group-tour timing constraints? Done. Prefer to snorkel five different reefs instead of beaches? The guide knows the unpublicised spots. Private charter also means you get first pick of beaches in the morning before the group-tour boats arrive — and you can stay until sunset if the mood strikes.
The charter includes a freshly cooked premium lunch (upgrade available to a grilled seafood feast with lobster, tiger prawns, and reef fish), premium snorkelling equipment including prescription masks on request, and a GoPro footage edit from the guide's camera. This is the way Palawan was meant to be experienced.

About the area
Bacuit Bay's 45+ islands and islets contain dozens of secret beaches and coves that group tours never visit due to time constraints. A private charter unlocks the full map — including spots that require a local guide's knowledge to find.
