El Nido Tour C - Hidden Beaches & Snorkeling tour(Private/Shared)

About this activity

We will visit El Nido's best hidden beaches and islands. The Secret beach, a piece of paradise concealed by the cliffs is only accessible through a narrow crevice. You will have to swim through this opening to reach this heavenly place which is shining even under the shade created by the sun kissed cliffs. The other one, Hidden beach is surrounded by limestone rocks formations and a natural pool filled with crystal clear waters. It cannot seen from the open sea. You'll have to walk and swim for a couple of minutes to gets to it. There are black and brown seaweed which makes it's a safe havens for the endangered fish. Our next stop, Matinloc island is shaped like a heart from aerial view. Within a simple climb to leveled out limestones, you'll find a 360 degree views of the surroundings. Helicopter island and Talisay beach are a couple of awesome snorkeling areas for decent amount of marine life creatures. End of the day, we will drop you back to the El Nido floating dock.
