The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is located about
50 km north of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. It
features a limestone karst mountain landscape with an 8.2 km. navigable
underground river. A distinguishing feature of the river is that it winds
through a cave before flowing directly into the South China Sea. It
includes major formations of stalactites and stalagmites, and several large
chambers. The lower portion of the river is subject to tidal influences. The underground river is reputed to be the world's longest. At the mouth
of the cave, a clear lagoon is framed by ancient trees growing right up to
the water's edge. Monkeys, large monitor lizards, and squirrels find their
niche near the cave.
