In Photos: Local Celebrities Who Recently Traveled To Palawan For Quick Getaways

Tim Yap

Tim Yap has been organizing "travel bubbles" for people who want to travel locally, and safely. The jetsetting TV host has actually been to a number of provinces since last year, and so he offers to take friends with him during his travels. Recently, he brought a small group to Palawan to enjoy the province when it's a lot less crowded and much more private. Paradise!

Yassi Pressman

"Ang Probinsyano" star Yassi Pressman took a much-deserved break by heading to Palawan for some quiet time. She hit the location's boutique resorts and less traveled paths (some, by motorbike!) and also took the time to hang out with her sister, Issa, plus other members of their super tight-knit family.

Mond Gutierrez

Mond Gutierrez has been out and about a lot in the last few months, mastering the art and science of safe traveling during this time. He spent time in El Nido—specifically at a little resort called Angkla—and guess what? He did spend a bit of time with the Pressmans when they were all there together! Mond chilled out on beachfronts, drove boats, went for open ocean swims, and sipped on his drinks of choice while he was at it. The dream, really.

Bubbles Paraiso

El Nido, Palawan was Bubbles' choice of beach vacay spot. She traveled with friends and made sure she got some sun after months of being cooped up at home!

Mica Javier and Jay-R

Mica and Jay-R have just celebrated their first anniversary as a married couple! They got married in Boracay in March last year in the nick of the time when a nationwide lockdown was just about to be announced. And a year after that, they traveled to Palawan for some sea and sun. They spent lots of their time outdoors, with Mica diving and snorkeling for the most part.

Kylie Verzosa and Jake Cuenca

This couple that loves the outdoors was lucky enough to spend a few days out in El Nido earlier this year. They went kayaking and they experienced some of the island's most unique attractions, giving us serious, serious beach vacay envy.
