Resorts Abandoned by a Virus
**Hello Drone Community,** 

Today I'm sharing all the effects **COVID** has had on the resorts in the Philippines and trying to compete in this week's drone competition.

![dji_fly_20240120_111512_237_1705720548412_photo_optimized.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/glideglobe/23zRpDGfqxc5Mj4wfdPBNhRcnDHyjRw4iSfhmJqBihMFfMbuZJVonVgAyDTSBkiu93Xue.jpg) 

This whole area just north of Palawan relies heavily on tourists. It was slowly reviving when we were there, but I won't go into detail since I already had it in my previous post.

All these jetties led to a resort, and we did not have Starlink at the time. If we had a weak signal to a tower, we would hoist a phone with a hotspot in a dry bag up the mast. This would work in some areas, but in this area, it did not. So, we went ashore to explore, and everybody told us all these resorts were dead and everything was private property now. Only one person was kind enough to let us stay at his house and use his internet since they had a strong router.

We spent two days searching for a spot to change our transmission oil since it was milky, which is not good, but we got it fixed in the end. We just scored the prop shaft, which will be welded during the haulout, probably in Mexico.

Another angle of all the abandoned resorts. This was a hard spot to anchor since the ground seemed to have lots of rubbish and was very steep. It doesn't look like it in the drone picture, but we are very close to the coral reef.

Palawan is really a beautiful tourist destination, but it's kinda expensive to book a travel 😬
