6 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Entalula Beach, which has a rating of 8.8.

Shimizu Island Beach (Mimaropa) is located outside the El Nido settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Shimizu island and the correct question is not how to get to Shimizu Island Beach, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

Although the beach appears beautiful, it's quite small and tends to get extremely crowded around noon due to the influx of boats from tour A serving lunch. There isn't much to do on the beach, as even swimming is not recommended due to the abundance of boats. The beach only offers basic facilities such as a restroom and a small kiosk selling buko juice and soft drinks. However, there are some fascinating rock formations at the right end of the beach that make for a great photo opportunity. During our visit, we were lucky enough to spot a water monitor lizard 🦎 who kept his distance but seemed comfortable with the presence of people.

The island was decent compared to the others nearby, but it didn't stand out as the highlight of the tour. Without a doubt, Jiji's beach near the secret lagoon was the best.

This is the perfect spot to grab a bite and go snorkeling, with its pristine white sand.

Our fourth destination is Shimizu Island, which we only stopped at for lunch. While there, you can purchase coconuts and take a swim. It's important to note that you should wear shoes from the port to the rental area since there are many rocks and coral along the way.

The tall lime rock formation is truly breathtaking and gives off a Pirates of the Caribbean vibe when sailing or exploring the area. Thumbs up and love it!
