Glide by the Beach and Waters of Port Barton in Palawan!

Port Barton is a tourism hotspot located in San Vicente, Palawan. It might belong to a quiet village, but it exceeds whatever expectations you have for it! If you want to know more, continue reading our blog.

This beach used to be called ‘Itaytay’ when the local tribe of Tagbanua people lived by the shore. People coined it ‘Port Barton’ in 1940 after the Englishman who surveyed the land at that time. Port Barton or Itaytay Beach is still an unspoiled piece of heaven in Palawan – starkly different from all of the other tourist hotspots in the province.
