In a certain study done on social media, wherein the number of Google articles containing the word ‘beautiful’ was counted and marked, the result came out that El Nido is on the 3rd rank, while Venice beach in California tops the counting. The Main Beach in Australia was the second.

Here are the lovely beaches of El Nido, pick and book now your El Nido get away.

1. Nacpan and Calitang Beach

Quick, yet fulfilling getaways? This can be the beach for you, as it is only 15 kilometers (around 40 minutes drive) from the town proper. Nacpan and Calitang beach are sometimes referred to as the Twin Beach of El Nido. These two amazing beaches are adjacent. Left or right, you will be welcomed with a great aqua hue, and will make you want to go for a swim right away.

The shoreline stretches up to 4 kilometers, providing enough space even though it gets crowded during peak season. With its soft texture and cream-coloured sand, and crystal clear blue water Nacpan is a cool swimming spot for every tourist. It is also rock and coral free, making it very comfortable and safe for walking, wandering around, and playing while barefoot.

Another plus point of choosing this is that a few minutes of walking will lead you to a variety of resto, shack bars, and even your accommodations.

3. Seven Commandos Beach

As the name “Commandos” implies, its history is rooted in 7 soldiers during WWII who got stuck on the island and lived there. Most tours conducted made this beach their first stop, so expect it- it’s always crowded. The white powdery sand and turquoise water seem so inviting to everyone. Along with this, this is one of the beaches in El Nido that offers iconic limestone karst formations and an amazing backdrop for photo shoots – green foliage at its best.

4. Snake Island Beach

Having a snake-shaped sandbar, hence the name. It is one of the top beaches in El Nido. Its sandbar is so famous, though it is only visible during low tide, people can still wander on the sandbar even if the water is high. You might think it is scary but don’t, as the beaches in El Nido are known for having crystal-clear water. Even I’m thinking now, one of the reasons why this is so popular is because of its undeniably beautiful sandbar, – I’ve seen wedding photo shoots here, proposals, birthdays, and many others. 😊 Snake Island beach actually connects the mainland to a smaller island through this (estimated) 3 kilometers long sandbar, you can cross the whole beach by walking going to and from another island.
