Badjao Seafront Restaurant

Puerto Princesa


Perched over the water at the end of a raised boardwalk over mangroves, Badjao has nice views over Puerto Princesa Bay and the mountains beyond. A long lunch gnawing on whole grilled fish and other seafood (crabs, shrimp, squid etc) is a great way to spend an afternoon. Service is slow when busy.
