How we designed this journey?
Palawan’s multi-day boat expeditions have gone viral across social media, but they come with a catch: sharing a crowded outrigger with 20+ young backpackers, sleeping in basic beach shacks, and jumping into open water to swim your luggage to shore every evening.
We love the raw beauty of Palawan, but we believe you shouldn't have to rough it to see it. This signature itinerary was explicitly engineered to provide the perfect alternative for families, couples, and discerning travelers who demand calm, comfort, and distinction.
Five-Star Luxury, Every Single Night
While standard expeditions end the day at rustic campsites, your day ends at the most prestigious, award-winning properties in North Palawan. From the exclusive peninsula of Two Seasons Island Resort to the elite, ultra-private sands of the Ariara Island Estate, you will experience world-class hospitality, premium amenities, and a plush bed every night of your journey.
Elite Transit on the "Little Harana"
Your sanctuary between the islands is a privately chartered luxury bangka designed for absolute peace of mind. Instead of a cramped public boat, you enjoy a spacious deck, high-speed Starlink Wi-Fi, a private marine restroom, and a dedicated, highly trained hospitality crew catering exclusively to your group.
Restricted Access & Hidden Lagoons
Because of LXV’s exclusive local partnerships, this itinerary grants you access to hidden sanctuaries—like the private Pusod Lagoon—where standard commercial tours and public expeditions are strictly forbidden to enter. You get to witness Palawan’s wildest, most majestic landscapes in complete privacy.
Seamless, Hands-Free Logistics
From the moment you step onto the pier in Busuanga until your private van drops you off at your destination in El Nido, every detail is flawlessly orchestrated. Luggage handling, private air-conditioned van transfers, island entrance permits, and curated dining experiences (including a traditional cultural gala at Mesa De Harana) are fully managed for you. You don't map out a single route; you simply enjoy the paradise.

The Hotel Selection
Our handpicked partner resorts are long-time extensions of the LXV and Harana family, selected because they mirror our precise standards for unrivaled space, intuitive service, and panoramic views.
Through these deep-rooted relationships, our guests enjoy elevated, VIP care at every single check-in. If you prefer a slower pace to fully immerse yourself in the world-class amenities of these properties, your dedicated travel designer can easily add extra nights and seamlessly redesign the entire voyage around your preferences.
The Culinary Experience
To ensure absolute culinary liberty, we purposefully avoid rigid, mandatory full-board meal packages. This design grants you the freedom to explore the distinct, world-class menus of our partner resorts at your own pace. The sole exception is your stay at Ariara Private Island, where an all-inclusive, estate-level private chef experience awaits you.
When you are out on the water, the dining is completely private and pristine:
Sea-to-Table Freshness: Your private chef aboard the Little Harana prepares fresh, natural, and healthy menus featuring the daily catch, local seafood, and vibrant tropical fruits.
Bespoke Provisioning: True luxury means never compromising on your personal tastes. Prior to setting sail, you can work with our team to pre-order your favorite premium imported wines, international beers, and specialty goods so the vessel is fully stocked with the brands you love most.
The Little Harana Crew
To ensure your journey is entirely effortless, the Little Harana is staffed by a dedicated, professional four-man crew who accompany your group for the full duration of the voyage.
The Master Captain: A highly skilled, experienced mariner with an intimate, lifelong knowledge of the North Palawan seas, ensuring absolute safety and smooth navigation through hidden channels.

Premium Upgrades (Optional Rent): Take it to the next level by adding a cutting-edge E-Foil (electric hydrofoil) or high-speed underwater sea scooters to your trip.
Dry Shore Access: A nimble 5-passenger support dinghy piloted by your first mate ensures you are ferried safely, comfortably, and completely dry directly onto any hidden beach.
AUTHENTIC CULTURAL ENCOUNTERS & LOCAL LIFE
While our expeditions primarily focus on exploring remote islands and untouched natural landscapes far from mass tourism, we also believe meaningful travel includes authentic cultural encounters.
Throughout the journey, we may visit remote Tagbanua indigenous communities, isolated fishing villages, and small local schools located far from the traditional tourist routes of Coron and El Nido. These encounters are approached with humility, discretion, and deep respect for local communities and traditions.
As a luxury travel company deeply rooted in the Philippines, our goal is not simply to showcase destinations, but to create genuine connections with the culture and people of Palawan.
For guests wishing to further immerse themselves in Filipino traditions, Mesa de Harana, our restaurant and cultural hub in Coron, can also organize private traditional dance performances and cultural evenings, available within our optional add-on experiences.
In addition, LXV can seamlessly combine your yacht expedition with carefully selected luxury resorts before or after your cruise to create a complete tailor-made Philippine journey.
SEAMLESS ARRIVALS, DEPARTURES & PRIVATE TRANSFERS
This expedition typically begins in Coron, Palawan, with arrivals via Busuanga Airport (USU). For international travelers, we generally recommend flying through Clark International Airport (CRK) or Cebu (CEB) for smoother and faster connections to Palawan.
Flights from Manila remain possible, although travelers should note that direct flights between Manila and Busuanga or El Nido may sometimes be limited depending on the season, often requiring additional domestic transfers.
The journey usually concludes at Dipnay Port, located approximately 40 minutes from El Nido Airport (ENI) in Northern Palawan.
This routing — Coron to El Nido — is especially recommended during the Amihan season (November to June), when the winds are generally more favorable and create smoother cruising conditions with the wind at your back. During the Habagat season, the reverse itinerary from El Nido to Coron may be preferred depending on sea conditions.
From the moment you arrive until your final departure, your dedicated LXV guide and land team will personally assist you with all transfers, airport pickups, resort connections, and logistics to ensure a completely seamless experience.
SEA-TO-TABLE FISHING EXPERIENCES
Few experiences compare to enjoying fish freshly caught directly from the waters surrounding your yacht.
All our vessels are equipped with fishing gear, and both guests and crew regularly fish during the crossings between islands. Depending on the season and conditions, common catches may include tuna, barracuda, tanigue (Spanish mackerel), trevallies, and various reef fish.
The catch of the day is often prepared immediately onboard by the chef — grilled over charcoal BBQ and served moments later at your table. This is sea-to-table dining at its purest form.
Most crew members are experienced local fishermen and are always happy to share techniques, advice, and local knowledge about the best fishing spots and methods.
For experienced guests, spearfishing activities may also be organized in permitted areas and according to local environmental regulations.
SNORKELING, WRECK DIVING & MARINE DISCOVERIES
The Philippines is recognized as one of the richest marine ecosystems in the world, and water activities naturally become one of the highlights of every Palawan expedition.
While Palawan is less known for massive pelagic encounters or intensely colorful coral gardens compared to certain other dive destinations, it offers extraordinary underwater diversity, crystal-clear lagoons, dramatic limestone formations, and exceptional snorkeling opportunities.
Throughout the itinerary, guests may encounter sea turtles, blacktip reef sharks, large schools of tropical fish, rays, and countless reef species, with occasional whale sightings depending on the season.
Some of the region’s most beautiful snorkeling areas include Lusong Coral Reef, the reefs surrounding Pusod Lagoon, Smith Beach Reef, and hidden coral gardens throughout Linapacan and Culion.
For scuba diving enthusiasts, Palawan is globally renowned for its extraordinary World War II wreck diving, particularly around Coron Bay, considered among the finest wreck diving destinations in the world.
Additional diving extensions can also be arranged to legendary sites such as Apo Reef, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, Barracuda Lake, and Coron’s volcanic lakes.
WILDLIFE, TROPICAL NATURE & RARE ENCOUNTERS
One of the great comforts of traveling in the Philippines is that nature here remains remarkably safe for visitors. There are no large dangerous predators, virtually no harmful spiders, extremely few snakes, and dangerous marine encounters remain exceptionally rare.
During your expedition, you may encounter sea turtles and seasonal nesting sites, giant monitor lizards reaching up to 2 meters in length, monkeys, hornbills, kingfishers, eagles, and the rare endemic Tabon bird. You may also see the iconic Filipino carabaos peacefully wandering near remote villages and rice fields.
For guests seeking even more exceptional wildlife experiences, we can also arrange pre- or post-cruise excursions to swim with the highly protected dugongs of Northern Coron.
Palawan remains one of the last truly preserved natural frontiers in Southeast Asia, where wildlife encounters still feel authentic and untouched.
YOUR PRIVATE TRAVEL DESIGNER
From your very first inquiry until the end of your expedition, a dedicated LXV travel designer will personally assist you in crafting a fully bespoke journey through Palawan.
For this journey, since you are staying in some great resorts, you can easilly request to your dedicated travel deisgner to add some more days in each resort that you like to extend. The itinerary will remain the same.
Our mission goes far beyond organizing a yacht cruise — we curate seamless luxury experiences entirely tailored to your lifestyle, preferences, and pace of travel. From vessel selection and route planning to private experiences, diving activities, celebrations, gourmet requests, and logistics, every detail is carefully designed to create an unforgettable journey across the most spectacular islands of the Philippines
