The news of having the world's first undersea tourist destination, Nickelodeon Resort and Attraction, in the Philippines, draws criticisms from environmental groups. Attractions of the park include animal reserves, shipwreck diving, hot springs, hidden lagoons and more. If the project pushes through, it will be the largest coral reef conservation program in Asia.
Miniloc Island Resort is set in a peaceful cove in El Nido, Palawan. Designed like a coastal village, the resort offers a wide range of tours and beach or water.
El Nido has become a favorite among tourists due to its sandy-white beaches and corals. Palawan has received multiple awards from travel sites due its beauty.
