Palawan used to be a hidden gem however more and more tourists from the west and Europe are coming in.
If you go to El Nido - which I'm sure you're already planning to, do the island hopping. Beautiful sights and picturesque views that you'll remember forever. The locals put an emphasis on restoring the natural habitat so you'll have to pay a fee for every activity you do, but it's just minimal. and to be honest - I didn't mind paying for it anyways because restoring that natural beauty is imperative.
Also if you can scuba dive - do it in El Nido. It's like jumping in a real life aquarium. it's amazing.
Boracay got too commercial and although it's fun, and more lively than El Nido - you can tell they've been disregarding the beaches a lil. Hopefully that doesn't happen at El Nido.
Here are some pictures:

Some pics I took. Small sample size. I can post more later on.
