About Puerto Princesa
Officially the City of Puerto Princesa, is a 1st class highly urbanized city in the Mimaropa Region of the Philippines. It is a city located in the western Philippine province of Palawan and is the westernmost city in the Philippines.
Puerto Princesa City is in the midsection of Palawan Island. It is bound to the east by the Sulu Sea, to the west by the South China Sea, to the north by the municipalities of San Vicente and Roxas, and to the south by the municipality of Aborlan. It is approximately 306 nautical miles (567 km) from the Philippine capital of Manila, 205 nautical miles (380 km) from Panay and 250 nautical miles (460 km) from Zamboanga City on the southern Philippine Island of Mindanao.
Puerto Princesa City, a tropical paradise with a bustling urban center perfect for business with leisure trips. Lush rainforests and white sand beaches are simply hours away from the city proper, where a banking and commercial boom has made life easier for workaholics who can never run away from the office.
Puerto Princesa is accessible by direct flights to and from the major cities of the Philippines through Puerto Princesa International Airport (PPS) found within the city proper.
The best time to visit Puerto Princesa would be the summer months from March to May, when seas are usually calm. Humidity is high but annual average temperatures are comfortable at 27 degrees celsius. Nights may be chilly during rainy days, especially in forested areas, so it is advisable for visitors to bring warm clothing at all times.
Must Visit Places in Puerto Princesa
Puerto Princesa has a lot more to offer. Here are tourist spots that you should visit:
- Subterranean River National Park (Underground River) - is part of the UNESCO World Heritage site that has been noted on 12 November 1999. The natural park area is approximately 22 hectares and contains an 8.2 km long underground river. The highlight of the subterranean river system is that it flows directly into the sea.
- Plaza Cuartel - was built by the Spaniards as a garrison during their occupation of the Philippines. During the Second World War, the Plaza Cuartel became the infamous location of the Palawan Massacre. The gruesome massacre of hundreds of American soldiers held captive by the Japanese during the end of WWII.
- Crocodile Farm - also known as the Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center (PWRCC). It has been the center of the conservation efforts of the Philippine crocodile and the Saltwater crocodile that are endemic to the Philippines.
- Honda Bay - It is known for its white-sand beaches and pristine clear water. There are lots of activities that you can do in Honda Bay such as diving, snorkeling and island hopping. Some of the popular islands in the Honda Bay area are Luli Island, Cowrie Island and Starfish Island to name a few.
- Palawan Butterfly Ecological Garden - aim to promote sustainability and ecological preservation of the endemic species of butterflies that can be found in Palawan. It houses the various stages of butterflies and promotes awareness of their conservation.
- Iwahig Prison and Penal Farm - this prison is not an ordinary prison that has bars and solitary confinement as we usually see. The inmates tend farmland instead of spending time behind the bars.
- Ugong Rock Adventures - is an adventure tourist spot and one of the active things to do in Puerto Princesa. It is located at the outskirt of the Puerto Princesa on your way to the underground river. The Ugong Rock Adventures offers zip-line and underground cave exploration tours. This tourist attraction has been made popular by the Amazing Race Philippines Season 2.
- Baker’s Hill - is a tourist attraction situated atop a hill in Barangay Santa Monica, Puerto Princesa. What started out as a bakery known for its delicious pastries, particularly hopia, it eventually developed into a picturesque park. It is a private property, which the owners graciously open to the public.
- Mitra’s Ranch - also known as Rancho Sta. Monica, is a significant part of Palawan city tours’ itinerary. Located in the hilly terrain of Sta. Monica Heights, Mitra’s Ranch is privately owned by the late Senator and statesman Ramon V. Mitra, Jr. The gracious family opened their ranch to the public and it, later on, became one of the more popular tourist sites in Puerto Princesa.
