About
Quick facts: Home to over 100 crocodiles, including giant saltwater crocodiles that can grow up to 5 meters long. The site also breeds many local species such as the Palawan Tuke, a bird species found nowhere else in the world.
Highlights: Especially fascinating is watching the feeding of the saltwater crocodiles, which takes place from a special platform underneath. It is a true adventure for both children and adults. The center also offers close-up views and education on the protection of endangered species, which is a practical and important step in preserving biological diversity.

- Instead of more expensive souvenirs from shops, look for local handicrafts and information brochures that support awareness and conservation.
