Sabang - your gateway to the Underground River.

If you’re heading to the St. Paul Subterrenean River or popularly known as Underground River – a must-see if you’re in Puerto Princesa, you’ll be passing by Sabang – a small municipality/town in Puerto Princesa city.

Although it does not offer much activities for tourists and travelers passing this way, it’s worth to note that there’s a nice beach at Sabang.  And if you get stuck at this place, there are some guesthouses and places to stay, and restaurants too.

If you’re on the way to the underground river, you’ll be taking boats from the port of Sabang.  There are boats that can also be rented in case you fancy going around the area.  There are also boats here that goes all the way to El Nido, although the trip could be very long, about 8 hours – that long.  Port Barton is more reasonable at 4 hours or so from here.

If you fancy culture, then take a nice walk around the town and the beach area, the whole town is navigable on foot, if you’re used to long walks.  Or better yet, take a carabao cart ride along the beach.  The beach is not really touristic, so for those who loved to be left alone, this may be appealing.
