Exploring the dazzlingly bright blue water of the Big Lagoon Out of all the places we visited while island hopping in El Nido, the Big Lagoon was the most stunning of them all. This beautiful lagoon is just 45 minutes away from the port at El Nido and when you get there you’ll see why it is such a popular spot. There are three sections to the Big Lagoon - the narrow inlet where you hire the kayaks, the main lagoon and a dazzling section to the left of the main lagoon. It goes a lot further back that it seems at first and is very deep (apart from the inlet at low tide) From @mark_sandoval 2.
