🌊 SURF 'N TURF 🏝️

-THE ISLAND LIFE-

Shimizu is calling...

Shimizu Island, El Nido

Palawan, Philippines

Shimizu Island is one of the numerous islands dotting El Nido’s Bacuit Bay. This small island has become a popular spot for snorkeling because of its colorful marine life. It’s usually part of the El Nido island-hopping Tour A package and an alternative stopover spot for lunch, so it can get a bit crowded here during midday.

The Japanese-sounding name makes one wonder about the island’s origin. According to guides and boatmen, a group of scuba divers explored the waters of El Nido decades ago, and one of them didn’t make it back from a deep underwater tunnel. Days were spent searching for the diver’s body until it was found on an island with imposing rock formations and fine white sand. The deceased diver’s last name was Shimizu, and the island was later named after him.
