Locally owned. Stronger together.
Sea Tours Palawan is the primary brand on this site — you book directly with us. We work alongside a small circle of fellow Filipino-owned operators and recognised authorities. Here is the full disclosure.
Tourism in Palawan works best when local operators cooperate rather than compete on the margins. Boats, crews, and seasonal capacity are pooled with trusted partners during peak months. This is how we keep tours small, crews local, and standards consistent year-round.
Operational partners
Seatours Palawan
Seatours Palawan is a 100% Filipino-owned operator based in El Nido. We sell and operate the 3D2N El Nido ↔ Coron expedition on our licensed expedition vessel, and we sell and operate El Nido speedboat day tours (semi-private and premium private charter) on our MARINA-licensed fleet.
When you book on seatourspalawan.com, you book directly with Seatours Palawan — instant online booking, 2,000+ verified reviews, and support via WhatsApp and [email protected].
Government accreditations
DOT Accredited
Sea Tours Palawan is accredited by the Philippine Department of Tourism (DOT). DOT accreditation requires compliance with safety, insurance, training, and customer-service standards, and is renewed annually.
MARINA Registered
Our vessels are registered with the Philippine Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA). Every speedboat undergoes annual safety inspection, carries the required life-saving equipment, and is captained by a MARINA-licensed master.
DTI Certified
Sea Tours Palawan is registered with the Philippine Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) as a legitimate Filipino business entity. Our DTI registration covers our trade name and operating jurisdictions.
Local community partners
We work with the Tagbanua community of Coron Island for lake access permissions, with Linapacan barangays for our overnight stops on the 3D2N route, and with the El Nido and Coron LGUs (Local Government Units) on environmental fees and protected-area access. All mandatory community and environmental fees go directly to the host communities and are not retained as operator markup.
What this is not
Seatours Palawan is not an OTA, white-label, or aggregator. We sell three core products: the 3D2N El Nido ↔ Coron Expedition, the Semi-Private Speedboat Day Tour, and the Premium Private Boat Charter — all operated under Seatours Palawan (MARINA-licensed).
Accreditation badges on this site (DOT, MARINA, DTI) refer to Seatours Palawan's registered business and licensed vessels.
