Crocodile Farm
Located just outside Puerto Princesa City in Palawan Island, the Ugong Rock Crocodile Farm & Wildlife Rescue Center is home to rescued saltwater crocodiles and local wildlife such as monitor lizards, turtles, and endemic birds. The facility is dedicated to conservation, rescue, and educational tourism, offering a unique counterpoint to Puerto Princesa City’s natural attractions like the Underground River and Honda Bay.
What to Expect
Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed by friendly staff guiding you through enclosures and displays that highlight rescued crocodiles and other native species. If you're feeling adventurous, consider exploring the nearby Ugong Rock Cave and Zipline Adventure for stunning views over Palawan’s rolling hills—a popular extension to a visit here.
How to Visit
The most efficient way to include this wildlife experience in your itinerary is through a Puerto Princesa City tour. A typical city tour may include shorter stops in key Puerto Princesa attractions like Plaza Cuartel, Baker’s Hill, and of course Ugong Rock Crocodile Farm, with snacks and roundtrip transfers provided.
Alternatively, cruise‑friendly land‑based tours in Puerto Princesa also offer wildlife, cultural, and scenic stops all in one. These Puerto Princesa shore excursions are ideal for cruise passengers looking to experience both the city and the countryside within a few hours of docking.
Why You’ll Love It
Whether you're traveling solo, with family, or arriving via cruise, the crocodile farm offers an engaging and educational stop that complements more busy attractions like the Underground River or island hopping. It’s one of those top attractions in Puerto Princesa that mixes wildlife awareness with local hospitality in a controlled, respectful environment.
