Sto. Nino Beach, Apurawan, Aborlan, Palawan by Henri

The gang took the 5-6 hours van back to Puerto Princesa on the 15th.  I guess, it’s more comfy for them there.

They were enjoying the night till morning drinking like Henri said “now we’re drinking some liquor so no worries..”  these guys are crazzyyyy…”    That sounds like what?  You can guess.

Even at 10:06 am, Henri was still awake. Imagine that sleep tolerance.   I guess when you have fun with your friends time does not matter, huh?!   How long can you stay awake? Dare to do the no-sleep challenge?   Don’t expect me to join…nevermind. Hahaha.  Well,  still Henri said “I need more sleep…hahaha”

To highlight that merry feeling in the air, I told Henri - “Thank you for sharing your wonderful happy personality…”  and his reply was a humble laughter “hahaha…thank you!

Feb. 20th, they were back to Puerto Princesa.  They watched the Philippine Derby.  What can you say about the rooster derby?  I have a HATE-LOVE opinion about rooster fight. Hahaha.”  How do you mean?  “…because at the same time, it’s right because this is the culture, but on my mind, it’s wrong because the cock’s get killed.”

What about you?  Have you seen the Philippine derby? What can you say about derby?




On the 18th, the gang left going to SANTO NINO BEACH, next to Munuduc Point.  

"There would be no wifi in a couple of days…"

Where is Sto. Nino?  It is a barangay next to Alimanguan going North.  This is called Long Beach C.  Part of Long Beach but to the north end.  Sto. Nino boast the linear beach head in San Vicente. This is the best area for bathing and other water activities.  This is not as crowded at Alimanguan and very suitable for a real property for a quiet but convenient location.  Second lots are desirable here.

Worth the trekking

HOW TO GET THERE: 

From San Jose terminal in Puerto Princesa, once can ride buses and/or vans bound for San Vicente (PHP 300) or Alimanguan. For a detailed transportation guide to San Vicente, check out Lakas ng Trip

From Port Barton, there are public bangkas that make the occasional trip to San Vicente (PHP 200). 

At San Vicente, hiring a motorcycle for the day is the most convenient way to check out the beaches. My six-hour tour from New Agutaya to Santo NiƱo was PHP 350.


WHERE TO STAY: The cheapest sleep in San Vicente town – actually, the cheapest room I’ve ever stayed in – are the fan-cooled dorm beds (PHP 55, with common toilets) of the Municipal Economic Enterprise Development Office (MEEDO), located at the public market, next to the transport terminal. Wifi internet available for PHP 20.
