What makes a good sunset in El Nido?

El Nido sits on the northern tip of Palawan with dramatic limestone karst towers rising from the Bacuit Archipelago. Sunset from the town beach gives silhouettes of the karst cliffs against the western sky, and from a boat in the archipelago you can position the towers anywhere in the frame. Nacpan Beach on the northwest coast is the cleanest ocean horizon shot: open South China Sea to the west with no islands blocking the view. The dry season from November to May brings the best conditions: clear skies and calm water.
