El Nido Resorts Palawan in the Philippines is for me the best beach. I have been there and it really is a tropical paradise (as seen in the picture) which is less commercial compared to beaches found in Thailand and even the Boracay in the Philippines.
Palawan beach was voted by Conde Nast Traveler as the best Asian Beach in 2007. Palawan's 1,200 miles of sugary beaches wrapped around 1,780 pristine islands have attracted travelers all over the world.
Plus, Palawan is the place where we can find the famous Tubbataha Reef Marine Park and St. Paul Subterranean River National Park, both listed under the UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites.
Also, El Nido Resorts in Lagen Island is featured in travel-reality show Amazing Race.
Nori's Reply: Jordan, thank you so much for sharing your "#1 of top 10 beaches."
The pictures you uploaded are breathtaking, enchanting.
This is an exotic part of the world we have yet to explore. The sleepy beaches of Southeast Asia remain a mystery to our family.
I checked out photos of Tubbataha Reef Marine Park and St. Paul Subterranean River National Park on Google Images - a dream. Have you snorkeled with the Whale Sharks? :-)
