Situated on the coast of Palaway, about 364 miles (585 kilometers) off
the coast of Manila, Puerto Princesa Underground River has recently been
designated as one of the Seven New Wonders of Nature. With five miles
(8.2 kilometers) of navigable waters, it is considered the longest
navigable underground river in the world. Visitors taking a paddle boat
tour of the cave will see massive caverns, a huge cave dome, unusual
rock formations and the legions of swiftlets and bats that inhabit the
caves. Lion’s Cave, Daylight Hole and Kawili Cave are popular with
