Tucked beneath a limestone mountain in Sabang, the Puerto Princesa Underground River is one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature โ and for good reason. Itโs a surreal experience: cruising through a pitch-black cave system where bats flutter overhead and rock formations look like melting candles and cathedral spires.
But is it worth the trip? Here's everything you need to know before you go.

What Makes It Special?
The Underground River is over 8 kilometers long, but only about 1.5 km is open to tourists โ still enough to blow your mind. Youโll ride a paddle boat into a cave with towering chambers, stalactites, and underground creatures. The river flows directly into the sea, making it one of the longest navigable underground rivers in the world.
> Fun Fact: It's both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature.

How Do You Get There?
If you're staying in Puerto Princesa, itโs just a 2-hour van ride to Sabang.
Weโll take care of the permits, transfers, boat rides, and even lunch โ all you have to do is show up and bring a sense of adventure.
> Coming from El Nido or Port Barton? It's a bit of a ride, but we can arrange a smooth trip for you.
