Visit Cadlao Lagoon
Cadlao Island, Philippines

Cadlao’s steep green slopes are a familiar sight from El Nido town, but approaching the island by boat reveals a different side of the landscape. Its lagoon, also called Ubugun Cove, combines sheltered water with a small beach and nearby coral gardens. Include it in an island excursion that allows time to paddle or snorkel without rushing between stops. Let your guide choose an appropriate swimming area and keep clear of the coral.
