I just had to see it for myself...

For the next 3 days, we traveled by boat to lagoons and beaches all around sea. We snorkled and kayaked around everywhere we stopped to get a good look at all the islands' and waters' secrets. Thank God we're all good swimmers.

This is a typical view of the fish we saw as we snorkeled around the reef...
...and the chance find! We found Nemo and his family :)

Secret Beach (original name, nah?) wasn't the coolest beach we saw in El Nido, but it was by far the scarriest to get to. Its entrance is visible only during low tide and is no bigger than a meter in circumference. The reef is so thick in front of it that our boat had to set anchor in the middle of the water to steer clear of it. We had to swim the rest of the way to the narrow opening in the rock. The secret beach was so secret, that even our boat driver missed it the first time!

My favourite beaches were on Snake Island. During low tide, the sand peaks through the water just enough to create 2 beaches on either side of it...one beach for me and the other one for whomever else ;)
