About midway to the other end of Nacpan Beach, we ended up resting at what appears to be the only artificial shelter in the entire strip. Three kilometers of white sand this was all they had. It was a very simple hut with a table where you can spend the rest of the hot afternoon watching the crystal clear sea. There are not a lot of resorts here in Nacpan where you can stay. The place is very underdeveloped – there wasn’t even electricity there, then again, El Nido town itself doesn’t have 24 hour electricity either. The place we were at was Jack’s Place, you can see the sign right on a coconut tree trunk. I’m sure that the place is very simple considering the location. But at least Jack is trying to be one of the first movers.
I don’t see a lot of visitors spending the night here in Nacpan, yet, as there wasn’t much to do here. There were no restaurants here and all food at that “resort” will have to be cooked by the staff. As a matter of fact, he was currently preparing grilled fish for some foreigners staying at the hut. No doubt that it was freshly caught fish as there is no electricity for refrigeration. It would probably be interesting to spend the night here as well, with no lights and just you and the beach, and maybe a few cows.
