    Brooke’s Point, a 192 kilometers south of Palawan Capital - Puerto Princesa City, is known as the origin of the biggest pearl in the world found in 1934. The pearl weighs in at about 14.1 pounds and is about 9.5 inches long and 5.5 inches in diameter and is now kept in a Museum in the United States. Brooke’s Point was named after the British army explorer and explorer Sir James Brooke, who served as the governor of Sarawak, Borneo in the 1830s. In one of his voyages, he landed on the tip of what is now Brooke’s Point, then inhabited by native Palaweños who were once ruled by the Sultan of Sulu. Brooke’s Point has grown into what is now considered to be one of the municipalities in Palawan with great economic potential. Its strategic location can make it a major growth center, a crossroads for international commerce. Because of its proximity to the other countries south of the Philippines, barter trade with Malaysia has become one of the primary sources of income in Brooke’s Point. In fact, this proximity with Malaysia—which residents refer to as “kabila” (the other side)—has allowed Brooke’s Point to be one of the best places to witness the peaceful coexistence of cultures. Indigenous Palaw’ans, Muslim and Christian residents, and immigrants from other parts of the Philippines all live together in harmony. brooke's point is a small, peaceful, clean municipality and i would say a 1st class municipality in Palawan - one of the best in Palawan. Must visit places: maruyog farms, sabsaban & mainit falls, though havent been to any beach resort there (i heard none though), and if you're into hiking try mt. mantalingahan - the tallest mountain in palawan wherein the infamous tao't bato is also located.
