We can answer the question of what to do in Port Barton in no time, as this is a place that won us over the moment we first arrived in 2015.

Port Barton is a unique corner of Palawan that more and more travelers are discovering. Although its scenery is not as spectacular as that of neighboring El Nido, Port Barton finds a place in people’s hearts thanks to its simplicity. Unpaved roads (although there are gradually fewer of them), little houses by the sea, dreamy sunsets, and paradise beaches you can discover on a pleasant walk are the ingredients that made us fall in love with it.

So that you can feel the same way we did when we first set foot here, today we want to tell you what to do in Port Barton with all the affection this village shows us every time we visit.

Port Barton or El Nido? What is Port Barton famous for?

As we mentioned above, Port Barton’s scenery is not as spectacular as El Nido’s or Coron’s. You won’t find limestone cliffs and lagoons in Port Barton, but we think it is a very beautiful place to include in your trip around the Philippines, and it is easy to reach from El Nido, which features on almost every itinerary around the country.

In Port Barton, you can enjoy the peace and charm of this village, but there are also paradise beaches, cool islands, and good places to go snorkeling (although, unfortunately, we found them badly damaged during our 2020 visit, and a typhoon in 2021 destroyed several of them).

It is true that little remains of the place we first discovered (there are now several paved roads, a bit of nightlife, and plenty of hotels and restaurants…), but it is still a destination with relatively little tourism and a laid-back, backpacker atmosphere. So, if you are looking for tons of activities, wild parties, or designer restaurants, this will not be the place for you. On the other hand, if you want relaxation and beautiful beaches, go for it!

In our opinion, a trip around Palawan should include both destinations, Port Barton and El Nido. They complement each other and are not mutually exclusive. What we do not think is worthwhile is traveling to Palawan solely to visit Port Barton, as you will find many charming places in the Visayas and Mindanao regions.


How many days should you spend in Port Barton? Suggested itinerary

After visiting Port Barton many times (always for more than a week), we recommend spending at least 2 full days in Port Barton, or 3 or more if possible. When we say full days, we mean that you should not count travel days, as your stay will otherwise feel too short.

The best way to organize your days to fit in everything there is to do in Port Barton is as follows:

  • Day 1 in Port Barton: island hopping + sunset at Itaytay Beach.
  • Day 2 in Port Barton: Coconut Beach, White Beach, Pamuayan Falls, and Pamuayan Beach. You can also take a short kayaking trip.

These are the must-see places in Port Barton that we will tell you about now, but if you stay longer, you could even visit the rest of the municipality of San Vicente (which Port Barton belongs to), visit the spectacular Long Beach, and head to the famous Bato ni Ningning viewpoint. This is what is now known as the Land Tour, which we will tell you more about later.

If you only had one day in Port Barton (which we do not recommend), we would prioritize the activities other than island hopping: visit Coconut and White Beach first thing in the morning, then Pamuayan Falls and Pamuayan Beach, before relaxing around the village. That said, if you leave early for an island-hopping tour (you can depart at 7:00 if you book a private one), you could finish at around 3:00 p.m. and then visit Coconut Beach and White Beach, ending with a sunset on Port Barton’s own beach.

Of course, if you have more time and are looking for a destination where you can stop, relax, and enjoy the beaches, Port Barton is a fantastic place. In fact, along with Malapascua and Siargao, it is one of the places where people most often end up “stranded,” possibly because of a “special aura” or some indescribable quality that draws you in.

Things to do in Port Barton


Things to do in Port Barton: 12 essential activities

Without further ado, here is everything to do in Port Barton: both the essentials and the alternative activities, depending on how much time you have.

1. Visit White Beach, the most beautiful beach in Port Barton

Port Barton’s main beach is a pleasant place to spend a few hours or watch a beautiful sunset, but the water is often a little cloudy and the sand is not the prettiest. Therefore, one of the best things to do in Port Barton is to take a walk to the gorgeous White Beach. Palm trees, golden sand, clear water, and peace and quiet—what more could you ask for? It is one of the best beaches in Port Barton and, in our opinion, one of the best beaches in the Philippines.

How do you get to White Beach? Walk south along Bonifacio Street. It is 4 kilometers from the village, and the route begins on a road before continuing along a dirt track, with a few uphill sections that will allow you to enjoy the views. The walk takes roughly 45 minutes, so we recommend doing it first thing in the morning to avoid melting in the heat.

Although you can get there by motorbike (make sure it did not rain heavily the night before, as the road becomes very muddy and unpleasant; rentals cost around 400 pesos per day), kayak (completely doable), tricycle (they usually charge 150 pesos per person each way, although we have a contact who charges 100), or boat (150 pesos per person per trip), if you are not feeling too lazy, the walk is actually very interesting because it takes you past Coconut Beach, which we will tell you about next. Another option is to take a tricycle to Coconut Beach and walk from there to White Beach, which will take no more than 5-10 minutes.

White Beach is managed by White Beach Annex Resort (now abandoned), so there is a fee of 50 pesos per person for its maintenance. In return, you get an immaculate beach. If you get hungry, there is a small restaurant with fairly reasonable prices considering its location. Even so, for a good meal, we recommend walking from White Beach to the Jungle Bar, which has incredible views.

BE CAREFUL: it is normal to find jellyfish on Port Barton’s beaches, especially White Beach and Itaytay Beach (the village’s own beach), sometimes more frequently between January and May. That said, do not panic. The jellyfish are easy to see because the water is crystal clear.

2. Do not skip Coconut Beach

If you walk to White Beach, before you get there, you will first see a spectacular beach lined with lots of palm trees. It is wonderful! Even if it is not your main destination, do not miss the chance to enjoy the aptly named Coconut Beach, where you can also take a dip and cool off. In our opinion, this is one of the best beaches to visit in Port Barton. What is more, most of its residents are adorable little pigs that you may spot strolling along the beach.

As access is private, there is an entrance fee of 50 pesos per person. As at White Beach, the family who lives here takes care of maintaining the beach, so it is extremely clean. Contrary to what you might think, this is not a nature park or anything similar. We are talking about an unspoiled beach where a Filipino family lives with their pigs and chickens.

Remember that beaches never look exactly the same and, although we show you photos from our different visits, they may look different due to various factors. In any case, our advice is to visit at high tide if you want to see it at its most beautiful, as much of the beach is rocky. Even so, the end farthest from the hut where you pay the entrance fee has a good sandy shoreline, and you can swim there at any time.

As we mentioned above, a good idea if you do not want to walk too much is to take a tricycle to Coconut Beach (it is usually 100 pesos per person; we have a contact we can share if you leave us a comment) and then walk along the beach to White Beach. This route can be done comfortably at low tide, and otherwise you can also walk inland without any problems. It will not take more than 10 minutes.

You can also kayak here from Port Barton. Afterward, you could continue to White Beach and, if you still have energy, to Starfish Island, which we will tell you about later.

There are no restaurants or small stores at Coconut Beach, so it is best to bring at least something to drink.

3. Go on one of the island-hopping tours

We have already told you about the fantastic island-hopping tours in El Nido and Coron, but when we tell you that one of the best things to do in Port Barton is one of these island-hopping tours, you should believe us. Quite a few travelers enjoy these excursions much more than other similar tours in Palawan.

To be honest, on our most recent visit, this island-hopping tour left us with slightly mixed feelings. The tours are starting to become overcrowded, and we noticed details that did not sit well with us. For example, there was a party boat blasting music, lots of people chasing turtles around Turtle Point, some very ugly buoys spoiling the strait between Maxima and Paradise Island, lots of dead coral… In our opinion, if you are getting a little tired of these kinds of excursions or are on a tight budget, we would save the money for the island-hopping tours in Coron and El Nido, which we think are essential. Even so, everyone has different tastes and, as we said, some people even enjoy the Port Barton tour more than the other two.

The tours cost 1,500 pesos (although you can easily negotiate them down to 1,300) and include island entrance fees, food, water, and snorkeling equipment. You must add the 200-peso environmental fee, so it is best to clarify this with the guide or company beforehand.

Departure is at around 9:00 a.m., and you usually return at about 4:00 p.m. Even so, as in El Nido and Coron, if you book a private tour, you can leave at 7:00 and avoid the crowds at the stops. You can book it through the hotels or agencies scattered around the village. If you would like the details of a good contact we have known for years for a private tour, you can also leave us a comment and we will send you all the information.

As in other destinations, you will also find several companies in Port Barton offering set island-hopping itineraries. In this case, they are divided into 2 tours: A and B. Although each includes different islands and reefs, the itinerary is usually quite flexible depending on what the travelers decide, and in practice you normally end up doing a mixture of both with the best stops.

In our opinion, Tour A, or any tour that includes these essential stops, is a good choice: Turtle Point (yes, did you know that one of the things to do in Port Barton is swim with turtles? Please do not block their path, get too close to them, or, of course, touch them), Paradise Beach, Exotic Island, a couple of reefs (usually Fantastic and Twin Reef), and Starfish Island. Lunch is also usually served on Capsalay Island.

Private or shared island hopping?

Although we previously recommended that all travelers take the shared tour, given the increase in tourism in Port Barton, we now think it is better to go private, ask the boatmen to visit the stops in the opposite order, and enjoy the experience more. However, bear in mind that it is considerably more expensive if there are only 2 of you.

The shared tour costs 1,500 pesos per person (you can easily book it through this link, which is completely reliable and has excellent reviews), while the boat (bangka) costs 6,000 pesos for 2 or 3 people and, for groups of 4 or more, it costs 1,500 pesos per person. If you are interested in this option, you can ask us for our trusted contact in the comments and also sign up or look for more travelers on our calendar to share the tour.

4. Cool off at Pamuayan Waterfall

If you feel like taking a dip in fresh water, another of the things to do in Port Barton is to walk to Pamuayan Waterfall. Although it will not be the most impressive waterfall you see during your trip around the Philippines, the route is beautiful and it is a pleasant excursion, as you will not come across many other travelers and may have it almost entirely to yourself.

How do you get to Pamuayan Waterfall? The waterfall is about 4 kilometers from Port Barton, and it will take you roughly 45 minutes to 1 hour to get there, depending on your pace. There is now a paved road, so you can walk there easily. Farther on, at the intersection, take the path on the right and keep walking until you see signs for Pamuayan Waterfall.

From the start of the trail (where the small booth is), it takes around 20 minutes. The return takes the same amount of time, as there is not much elevation gain. You will have to cross a river or two, so sandals that can get wet or water shoes are advisable. Remember to bring water (although there are a couple of small stalls when you reach the parking area), and try to go early so it is not too hot!

If you ride a motorbike, you can also reach the waterfall this way. Much of the road is paved, but the final section is a dirt road, so take care, especially if it has rained.

Admission is free, but a donation is requested. You can leave whatever amount you like.

Pamuayan Waterfall Port Barton

5. Visit Pamuayan Beach, another thing to do in Port Barton

Once you have finished taking a dip at the waterfall, retrace your steps and return to the intersection to take the turnoff to Pamuayan Beach. It will take no more than 15 minutes to walk there from the waterfall parking area (30–40 minutes from Port Barton), and in our opinion it is beautiful, although not on the same level as Coconut Beach or White Beach, and it also has some sandflies. Hardly anyone visits this beach either, so there is a very good chance you will have it all to yourself.

Access is free, there is a small bar and restaurant (Evio Bar), and if you walk a little farther toward the end, you will find a photogenic palm tree (now lying on the ground after the 2021 typhoon) that you will not forget. There is usually a woman selling drinks nearby.

You can also reach Pamuayan Beach by motorbike, but as with Coconut and White Beach, much of the road is unpaved, so if it rains, it becomes a muddy mess that can be dangerous. A shortcut is to ride to this point and then walk along the little dirt path leading to the beach. This is also the prettiest section, so it is worth doing.

6. Enjoy Port Barton’s sunsets at Itaytay Beach

Do not miss your date with the sunset. Port Barton’s sunsets are some of the best we have seen in the Philippines. The display of colors is usually spectacular, and if you enjoy it with a cold beer or a buko (coconut), we promise you will not forget it. Along the village beach, which, by the way, is called Itaytay Beach, there are lots of bars (the best known at the moment are Barton Bistro and Happy Bar), although you can also buy something from a sari-sari store and sit on the sand.

Depending on the time of year, you may see the sun set behind the islands in front of Port Barton or over the sea. Even so, the colors in the sky are usually incredible. If you take our advice, we usually head toward the right-hand side of the beach, in the direction of the Besaga hotel. This is where Happy Bar is located, which, as we mentioned, is one of the liveliest places to watch the sunset. It is the one in the bottom-right photo, and you can already see how crowded it gets.

Amazing Sunsets in Port Barton

7. Kayak to Starfish Island

If you enjoy paddling, one of the best things to do in Port Barton is to rent a kayak and discover nearby paradises on your own. Besides going to White Beach by yourself (15-20 minutes by kayak), a very cool excursion from Port Barton is Starfish Island. You will get there in around 30 minutes and have this tiny island full of starfish (Chocolate Chip Sea Stars) all to yourself. Remember not to touch them, let alone take them out of the water, as this can harm them—responsible tourism above all!

Other places to see in Port Barton by kayak include:

  • Dinisonan Island: 25 minutes by kayak.
  • Pamuayan Beach: 40 minutes by kayak.
  • Capsalay Island: 1 hour by kayak (good snorkeling).
  • White Beach and Coconut Beach: around 20 minutes.

One relatively easy route that people usually enjoy is Coconut Beach – White Beach – Starfish Island – Pamuayan Beach – Capsalay Island.

Kayak rental in Port Barton costs around 100 pesos per hour or 500 pesos for the entire day. You will find rental places on the main beach without having to search very hard. Remember to ask for a receipt because some travelers have told us they had problems.

8. Enjoy Port Barton’s simplicity and, if you feel like it, go out partying

And although it may seem fairly obvious, we also want to encourage you to enjoy the village itself. It is true that it is changing at breakneck speed as its popularity grows, but it is still a very peaceful and charming place. Many of Port Barton’s streets lead directly to the beach, where you will find picturesque little huts where local residents sit and chat.

Among the growing number of souvenir stores, you can still spot the church, school, basketball court, and the occasional sari-sari store where the villagers shop.

And although the number of bars in Port Barton comes nowhere near the number found in El Nido, you will find a backpacker atmosphere in this Palawan village during the afternoons and evenings. Most people gather at beach bars such as Nitevo Reggae Bar, Barton Bistro (shown in the photo below), or Happy Bar.

For a “jungle” experience, past White Beach you will find the famous Jungle Bar, which is worth visiting during the day because the views are spectacular. In the village itself, you will find Flow Pool Club (with a swimming pool) and Coco Rico. If you want to dance until late at night, Moon Bar is the place for you because it is the only one that stays open after 10:00 p.m. We have marked all of them on the Port Barton map you will find below.

More things to do in Port Barton and the surrounding area

Everything we have told you so far is what you can see and do in Port Barton without having to travel very far. However, one thing you should know is that Port Barton is actually a barangay, or “neighborhood,” in the municipality of San Vicente. Since the road to what could be considered the center of San Vicente (Poblacion, Alimanguan, etc.) is still fairly bad and there is no proper public transportation, we distinguish between two destinations: Port Barton (the guide you are currently reading) and San Vicente.

That said, there is growing interest among people visiting Port Barton in taking a trip to the rest of the municipality. So, if you have more days to explore Port Barton, we recommend that you keep reading for some additional ideas.

9. Take a long walk along San Vicente’s Long Beach – Go on the so-called Port Barton Land Tour

If you want an enormous stretch of beach all to yourself, head to Long Beach in San Vicente. Eight kilometers of white sand await you! It is said to be the longest white-sand beach in the Philippines, and little by little, following the recent opening of San Vicente Airport, several resorts and small guesthouses are springing up in what people say will become the future Boracay of Palawan. You can read more about this area in What to see and do in San Vicente.

How do you get to Long Beach from Port Barton? At the moment, we think the best option is to take the so-called Land Tour, an overland tour in a tricycle/tuk-tuk that takes you to several destinations around San Vicente. It usually includes Long Beach, Bigaho Falls, Giligans Beach, and the Bato ni Ningning viewpoint (the most famous viewpoint in San Vicente). It costs 1,500 pesos per person, and 3 people can fit comfortably in one vehicle. You can write to us if you need a contact.

Another way to get there is by motorbike. Although they have begun paving the road to Poblacion (San Vicente), it is still in very poor condition. For this reason, unless you are highly skilled and rent a dirt bike, it is not something we recommend, especially if it has rained in the previous few days, as you may find the road extremely muddy. Download the Maps.me app because the road still does not appear on Google Maps.

Even so, if you decide to do it independently by motorbike, our advice is to stop at other beaches along the way, such as Nao Nao Beach, and at Bigaho Falls. If you have time, at least make your way to Bato ni Ningning and Alimanguan Beach, which we really like. It is highly advisable to leave early (at 7:00 a.m. if possible) because it is a long trip and you do not want it to get dark on the way back.

Finally, you can also get there by boat. There is a daily transfer from Port Barton to Long Beach at 9:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., returning at 8:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. The trip takes around one hour and costs 800 pesos round trip. You can also hire a private boat. We can give you a contact for all of this as well if you leave us a comment below.

Long Beach, San Vicente

10. Discover the remote Bigaho Waterfall

For the more adventurous, another place to see near Port Barton is Bigaho Waterfall, located around 5 kilometers from Pamuayan Waterfall in the direction of Long Beach. The easiest way to get there is to rent a motorbike, although you can also negotiate a visit as part of an island-hopping tour, as the boat can drop you off at Mahilamonen Beach (also known as Bigaho Bay), from where it is a 10-minute walk along a trail.

How do you get to Bigaho Waterfall? You can get there by motorbike by following the same route toward Pamuayan Waterfall and continuing straight ahead. Farther on, you will see one sign for San Vicente and another pointing to Bigaho Waterfall, where you will need to turn right. The journey from Pamuayan Falls by motorbike takes a little over 30 minutes, and you should be extremely careful. You can also get there by tricycle or, as we explained above, by boat.

There is a 40-peso entrance fee.

11. Feel like a castaway by sleeping on nearby islands or beaches

Port Barton is a peaceful village, but if you are the kind of person who wants to feel like a castaway for a few days, there are several nearby places where you can do so. For example, you can reach Cabang Campsite – Private Island Experience, Isla Tress Bonita Wellness Escape Island, Blue Cove Island Resort, or Coconut Garden Island Resort by boat.

You can also spend a night or two at the wonderful, paradise-like Sunset Colors, Mariejoy Haven Beach Resort, or Giligans Port Barton Beach Resort (a private house), all located on the beautiful Nao Nao Beach (also called Giligans), which can also be reached by tricycle or motorbike (as well as by boat).

For us, this experience is comparable to spending a few days on Daracotan or, if you do not have time, staying at one of the camps on the Coron-El Nido expedition, if this has left you wanting more.

12. Bonus track: See the bioluminescent plankton in Port Barton, a magical thing to do in Port Barton

What exactly is that? Bioluminescence is a phenomenon that we find magical, caused by the movement of plankton, which are organisms floating in seawater. The concentration of plankton varies greatly depending on the conditions, so this only happens sometimes, but we do not want you to miss the chance to see it.

If you feel like being amazed, we recommend exploring Port Barton’s own beach (Itaytay Beach) a little. Go to an area with very little light, which is usually toward either end, and gently move the water along the shoreline. If you see it starting to glow, bingo! Put on your swimsuit, grab a snorkeling mask, and get into the water. You may well have a religious experience!


Tips for visiting Port Barton

If you are planning to visit Port Barton for a few days, keep these tips in mind:

  • There are ATMs in Port Barton. Even so, bear in mind that they are operated by a company called Euronet. They offer terrible exchange rates and sometimes do not work with Revolut, so try to avoid using them whenever possible. For this reason, our advice here (and really anywhere in the Philippines, since this will save you money on ATM fees) is to use Remitly. With our link, you get $10 free. You can use it at this pawnshop.
  • You will not need to rent a motorbike to get around the village, as it is a pleasure to explore on foot and the road to White Beach is actually in poor condition, so we recommend going by tricycle, boat, or on foot. Even so, if you want to go to Pamuayan and save some money, you will find motorbikes for rent around the village for around 350 pesos for 4 hours or 400-450 for the entire day. If you need recommendations, we can give you some if you leave us a comment. That said, there are now tuk-tuks everywhere in Port Barton, even at the bus terminal.
  • To go island hopping, you will have to pay an environmental fee of 200 pesos per person. When you arrive in Port Barton, you will be asked to register at the bus terminal, but you will not have to pay anything.
  • Unfortunately, Port Barton is one of the few places where there have been reports of thefts at hotels, especially during the night. Book a hotel with security and read reviews from other travelers to avoid any problems. For your peace of mind, none of the accommodations we recommend in Where to stay in Port Barton have experienced this type of issue.
  • The best time to visit Port Barton is from January to May, but you can visit at any time of year. You will find more information in When to travel to the Philippines.
  • Be very careful when buying sunscreen, or simply avoid buying it here altogether. As we explain in Scams in the Philippines, unfortunately, in Palawan, sunscreen bottles (even sealed ones) are refilled with body lotion, and many travelers end up badly burned. Be extremely careful in the sun, as it is very strong here, and it is best not to expose yourself too much, to use sunscreen brought from home (it will be cheaper than in the Philippines), and, whenever possible, to wear protective shirts.
  • If you need treatment for a medical emergency, there is only a small clinic called Isla Clinic. If something serious happens, it is best to travel to Puerto Princesa, where there are better hospitals. Remember that you will have to cover your medical expenses, so it is essential to travel with good travel insurance for the Philippines. If you purchase it through OUR LINK, you will receive a 5% discount.

Accommodation in Port Barton

We have visited Port Barton many times and highly recommend these places to stay, which we have personally tried:

  • Hashtag Tourist Inn: clean, spacious rooms close to the beach, run by a very warm and welcoming family. From just $32 per night for a double room.
  • CocoRico Hostel: looking for a backpacker atmosphere? This is your place.
  • Parrots Boutique Resort: currently the best accommodation in the entire village. If you can treat yourself to a little luxury, go for it because prices here are much better than in El Nido.

Do not miss the best hotels in Port Barton for a perfect stay. We also strongly recommend booking as early as possible. Unfortunately, Port Barton is becoming like El Nido in that hotels are often full and expensive if you book at short notice.

How to get to Port Barton

Since it does not have an airport, only a bus terminal, the two easiest ways to get to Port Barton are overland via Puerto Princesa (cheaper) and El Nido, both of which do have airports. From there, you can take a van to Port Barton, with the journey taking between 3 and 3.5 hours. San Vicente Airport has recently begun receiving flights mainly from Manila and Cebu. Once there, you can travel by boat to the village in around 45 minutes.

Check out how to get to Port Barton from El Nido, Puerto Princesa, and other places in the Philippines.

Where to eat in Port Barton

If you want to treat your taste buds, do not miss these places:

  • Gacayan: although it has lost some of its magic, it remains an institution for eating in Port Barton. It is not fine dining, but it is cheap! We recommend only going for lunch and ordering the dish of the day rather than ordering from the menu, because the service is so slow that it becomes exasperating.
  • The restaurant at the Besaga hotel: for grilled dishes on the beach, this is your place.
  • Barton Bistro: good value for money and sea views. If you want to work on your computer or need good internet, it is highly recommended.
  • Sicily: delicious, well-executed pasta dishes (apparently the owner lived in Italy).

You will find all the information you need in Where to eat in Port Barton.
