Sabang (Palawan Island), Philippines - Rock formations at a beach on the way to the underground river

Sabang is a small village in Palawan, Philippines. It is used as an entry point to the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River.

This park features a large limestone karst landscape with an underground river. One of the river's distinguishing features is that it emerges directly into the sea, and its lower portion is subject to tidal influences. The area also represents a significant habitat for biodiversity conservation. The site contains a full 'mountain-to-sea' ecosystem and has some of the most important forests in Asia.
