The Underground River in Puerto Princesa is an incredible natural wonder that attracts visitors from all over the world. To explore this amazing cave system, we offer a 1.5 km cruise upstream into the cave. To minimize the impact on the environment, we organize this trip with a shared boat. Additionally, please be reminded that the park has a "no touching" policy for the rock formations, to preserve the natural beauty of the cave.
The closing time for visiting the Underground River is usually at 2:00 pm. However, in case of unfavorable sea conditions, the closing time may be set earlier for safety reasons. To make the most of your visit, it is advisable to reach Sabang no later than 10:00 am.
It's a good idea to bring appropriate clothing and footwear for the tour, as the boat ride can be wet.
After your tour of the Underground River in Sabang, you may want to continue your adventure to El Nido. For a hassle-free transfer experience, a private transfer can be arranged at an additional cost.
All last-minute bookings (made on the same day or 3 days before the tour) must be made by phone or email only.
