Where to buy island tours in El Nido and how to get to the departure point?

Buying island tours in El Nido is as easy as pie — they are sold in every travel agency and almost any hotel. Booking in advance is not necessary; you can come and buy a tour the day before or even in the morning on the day of departure.

There are three main ways to purchase:

1. At local agencies or hotels. Prices are fixed everywhere, but you can bargain and knock off 100-200 pesos, especially if you buy several tours.
2. On the Klook website. This often turns out cheaper than on-site. By booking online, you receive a voucher and instructions by email.
3. Right on the beach at the pier. This is the departure point for all boats (view on map). You can try to buy a tour at the last minute; sometimes they even give a discount this way.

How to get to the starting point: The departure pier is located right in the center of El Nido. If your hotel is in the center, it's easy to walk there in 5-15 minutes. If you live far away, when purchasing a tour, you can request a transfer for 100-200 pesos or try to negotiate it for free instead of a discount.
