Balabac, Palawan

If Palawan is the Philippines' final frontier, then Balabac is the final frontier of the final frontier. It is located at the southern tip of the province - so remote that it is already near Sabah, Malaysia. Balabac is composed of a group of islands, each of which will definitely be a great feast for the eyes. Anyway, here are three of my favorite shots on our sojourn in this part of paradise.

#1. Polvoron-esque white sand

This part of Palawan is so devoid of tourists that there are no hotels or resorts here. Be prepared to get back to the basics. In fact, on our almost one week stay here, we spent the night at our hammock. There are already plenty of write-ups written about this piece of paradise that this area in Punta Sebaring was even compared to Boracay in the 70's. I do hope that this area stays the same, and if progress reach this area, development should be sustainable. 

Thank god for tripods and timed shutter release
