Is San Vicente reached by road from Puerto Princesa?
Yes. Both ends are on mainland Palawan, on the same corridor that runs north towards Port Barton and El Nido, so this is an overland transfer rather than a ferry or flight connection.
Palawan private transfer
Puerto Princesa to San Vicente
Puerto Princesa San Vicente
San Vicente sits on Palawan’s north-west coast, on the same mainland road corridor that runs north from Puerto Princesa towards Port Barton and El Nido. A private car or van collects you at the airport or your city hotel and takes you through to your Long Beach or Poblacion accommodation, so a quieter west-coast base does not have to mean a shared-van transfer.
Plan the route correctly
- Both ends are on mainland Palawan, so this is an overland transfer rather than a ferry or flight connection.
- San Vicente is a municipality, not a single resort strip: Port Barton is one of its barangays, while the Poblacion and Long Beach area sits farther north along the coast.
- Long Beach runs through several coastal barangays — Poblacion, New Agutaya, San Isidro and Alimanguan — so naming the barangay or the property makes the drop-off point unambiguous.
- San Vicente has its own airport as well as the road link, so say whether you are arriving overland from Puerto Princesa or connecting by air.
- The same northbound corridor serves Port Barton and continues to El Nido, so this leg can be built into a multi-stop mainland itinerary.
What your quote can cover
- Private vehicle sized for your group and luggage
- Puerto Princesa airport (PPS) or city hotel pickup at the time confirmed in writing
- Drop-off at your San Vicente or Long Beach accommodation where road access allows
- Optional Port Barton stop or an onward leg towards El Nido
We publish route guidance, not generic fares or timings. Your quote is based on the actual date, pickup, accommodation, passenger count, luggage and vehicle needed.
Going the other way: San Vicente to Puerto Princesa
Same corridor, travelled the other way. The planning notes above apply in either direction — the pickup and drop-off points simply swap over, so San Vicente to Puerto Princesa is quoted on exactly the same basis as Puerto Princesa to San Vicente.
Travelling both ways? Ask for the return at the same time and both legs are planned as one itinerary rather than two unrelated bookings.
Puerto Princesa to San Vicente: common questions
Should I write “San Vicente” or “Long Beach” on the form?
Either, as long as you add the barangay or the property name. San Vicente is a municipality rather than a single resort strip: Long Beach runs through Poblacion, New Agutaya, San Isidro and Alimanguan, and Port Barton is a different barangay again.
San Vicente has its own airport — do I still need this transfer?
Only if you are arriving overland. The coast is served both by road from Puerto Princesa and by San Vicente Airport, so tell us which way you are coming in; some travellers fly one direction and drive the other.
Can I add a Port Barton stop or continue to El Nido?
Yes. The same northbound corridor serves Port Barton and continues to El Nido, so a stop or an onward leg is quoted as one multi-stop run rather than as separate bookings.
Do you also cover San Vicente to Puerto Princesa?
Yes. It is the same corridor travelled the other way, and we quote it the same way. Tell us your pickup in San Vicente and where you need to be in Puerto Princesa, and it is priced on the same fixed, all-in basis. If you need both directions, ask for them together and they are planned as one itinerary rather than two unrelated bookings.
Anything specific to your dates, group or pickup point is answered on the quote — that is where the actual vehicle, timing and fixed all-in price come from.
