El Nido, Palawan

Duli Beach

North-coast beach, quieter than Nacpan, and the one place near El Nido with surf.

Duli is further north and considerably less visited than Nacpan. It is the surf beach: it picks up swell on the west-facing coast during the habagat months, roughly June to October, which is the opposite half of the year from the kitesurfing season on the east coast at Sibaltan.

That seasonality is worth planning around. Outside the swell months it is simply a very quiet beach with few people on it.

Getting there

Roughly an hour north of town, past Nacpan.
