Malampaya Ecotours, Inc. is an ecotourism company based in the island of Palawan, the Philippines. Its headquarters are conveniently located in the village of Taytay, some 35 miles away from the country's best known tourist spot, El Nido. Taytay, the former capital under the Spanish rule, is today a well-stocked, moderately developed settlement, which is still surrounded by a pristine environment and has enormous potential for ecotourism.
Since 2016 Malampaya has been engaged in developing sustainable, fair-trade activities in northern Palawan, aiming to create an alternative model to mass tourism. The company operates both at sea and on land. A 12 pax vessel enables to organize multi-day island hoping expeditions across Taytay Bay and the neighboring Linapacan archipelago, as well as other marine activities such as snorkeling, mangrove kayaking, trolling fishing, and whale watching. Land-based activities, some including jungle hiking and bird watching, mainly take place in and around the Lake Manguao, the largest and best-preserved freshwater body in the island.
