Nacpan beach is one of the hidden gems of El Nido, Palawan.

Its powdery white sand beach and crystal clear waters will really make you fall in love with the beach more.

Of all the beaches that I've been to, this one really stands out. The beach's sand is super powdery white and soft, the water is warm and not to mention it's super duper clean and clear! Not once did I see a piece of trash along the Nacpan beach! I also love the fact that the place is not crowded at all, there are only a few tourists who goes here. The place is not yet developed and I loved that. Its tranquility and beauty is astounding. It's the perfect place to relax if you want to just be at peace while enjoying the beach.

There are, I think five (5) food stalls at Nacpan Beach, like this one.

They offer fresh fruit shakes and other refreshments as well as fresh and delicious seafood dishes.

If you want to spend the night there, cottages are also available there for rent. The photo below shows one of the cottages which you could rent in Nacpan. It's just a few meters away from the beach.

No questions asked, Nacpan is really a very beautiful beach, but as the saying goes, "You can't really have it all", Nacpan is not blessed with a nice underwater view. It's all sand and sand, and sand. hehe. But I think, the fine sand and clear waters is enough to make the beach stand out.

Who says only San Vicente has a long stretch of a white sand beach, El Nido also has its own version! Nacpan has a four (4) kilometer-long stretch of white powdery sand beach.

There's also no entrance fee being collected in here. You can enjoy the beach any time you want.

You will get the best view of the two beaches on top of the cliff where both of the beaches end.
Two narrow trails are available to reach the top of the hill, I recommend that you take the less steep ones located at the right side of the hill. The climb to the cliff was short but it was a little bit steep.

The first time I saw a photo of the Nacpan-Calitang twin beach on facebook, my beach-loving heart was immediately captivated by it. I promised myself that I will visit the place someday and that day finally came last June 17 of 2015.

It's beauty on the photographs really made justice to how it looked like in person.

| (Finally got to chance to take a picture with the famous twin beach) |
After taking photos of the twin beach, we decided to go down the mountain and make our way back to the resto as the rain was about to fall.
 |

There are actually two trails to go up the hill, the one we took to get to the top is the steep ones and I recommend that you take the easier trail on the right side 'cause it's less steep and more accessible.
 |
| (The rain is about to fall) |
The best side of the twin beach is Nacpan's. The Calitang beach is a more populated area. It's actually a fishermen village where there are a lot more houses along the beach as compared to Nacpan.

HOW TO GET HERE:
Private transport
You will have to navigate your way approximately 15 kilometers away from the town proper of El Nido and from the highway you will see signs saying "this way to Nacpan-Calitang beach". You will see the signs on the left side of the road and you will enter a small unpaved road and from there, you will travel about 5 kms more to be able to reach the beach.
Inland Tour
Nacpan-Calitag is part of the El Nido group tour E.You can book your tour with the travel agencies in town.
Hire a Motorbike or Tricycle from the town proper
There are tricycles for hire in the town proper of El Nido. I wasn't able to get a price quotation but from what I had searched on line they say that you can hire tricycle for P800-P1,000 (two way--back and forth).
Here are some of the videos we've taken at Nacpan :)
If you visit El Nido, make sure to include Nacpan-Calitang's Twin beach on your itinerary. Promise, it'll be worth your trip.
As I have mentioned, not once did I see a piece of trash along the beach of Nacpan. So please, please, please if you will visit the place, please make the effort not trash the place out. Help the people there to keep it clean. However, on the side of the Calitang beach I noticed that the beach is not that clean as compared to Nacpan. Maybe it's because of the fact that Calitang is a more populated and residential area. I hope the local government would take an action regarding that problem.
I hope you enjoy the place as much as we did.
Enjoy God's wonderful creations!! :)
ADIOS!!
