ISLAND HOPPING CORON PHILIPPINES Coron in the Philippines is a part of Palawan Island. And similar to El Nido, the main reason for visiting is island hopping tours. Explore endless amount of jaw-dropping views, limestone formations, hidden lagoons and lakes with a mixture of salt and freshwater with our Coron Travel Guide. The price in Coron for island hopping tour is a little bit higher. For a shared boat (10-14 people) the price is 1600 PHP per person. And it usually does not include lunch and entrance fee for each location. In every place, you stop you pay additional 150-400 PHP per person. The private boat is between 5000-6000 PHP for 4 people and doesn't include lunch or entrance fees. Because these tours are quite popular we recommend you to book the private boat and leave the harbor at 6 am in the morning. Another advantage of having your private boat is that you can create your own personalized order and itinerary of the tour. We started at 6 am and headed to the most popular place first - Barracuda Lake. Barracuda lake is actually a freshwater lake inside of a crater in the middle of the ocean. The water has an emerald blue color and its incredibly clear! The first 4m layer of the water is purely freshwater with the temperature around 28°C. As you are going down the water changes to saltwater and at 14m deep the water temperature is rising to 38°C. Banol Beach, Coron Philippines A stunning white sandy pristine beach with wooden shacks on the water. This incredible place is in the middle of the ocean surrounded by impressive limestone formations. Twin Lagoon Twin Lagoon is another jaw-dropping place. Two lagoons with incredible snorkelling conditions connected together by a narrow gap in the middle of a rock. On low tide, you can swim through an underwater bridge to get from one lagoon to another. #awesomepic #couplestrip #unforgettableexperiences #travelinspiration #beach #instagramworthydestinations #islandhopping #philippines #awesomepic

Looking for a getaway filled with ocean and sunshine for days, brimming with natural beauty? Coron is definitely on your bucket list! This four-day diving trip will allow you to witness the vibrant coral reefs and explore the mysterious underwater world for the first time. Every dive is a delightful experience. No diving experience is necessary, making this trip easy for beginners and suitable for anyone who wants to experience the magic of the ocean. 🌊Highlights at a Glance: Coron is renowned for its clear waters and rich underwater life. This trip focuses on diving: not only will you see vibrant coral formations and a diverse array of tropical fish, but you'll also experience shipwreck diving – akin to an underwater explorer! If you're planning your first dive, the instructors are professional and patient, and the facilities are exceptionally well-equipped. 🗓️Recommended Itinerary Day 1 Upon arrival in Coron, it's recommended to stay at a resort near the pier to easily join a diving tour (typically, every dive shop will meet in the morning for departures). Spend the afternoon exploring Coron town and experiencing the unique charm of the Philippine islands. Day 2 Take a PADI diving course or Discovery Scuba Diving. Your instructor will provide a brief theoretical and equipment tutorial, then you'll dive in and explore the shallow coral reefs. The best part for beginners is relaxing your breathing and gradually adjusting to the feeling of floating underwater. There's no need to be afraid, as your instructor will be there for you every step of the way. Day 3 Explore Coron's most famous shipwreck dive sites, such as Kayangan Lake and Barracuda Lake, as well as the Japanese shipwrecks in the waters. Diving underwater and witnessing history is a unique thrill. Lunch will usually be served at a snorkeling spot. We recommend ordering a seafood meal from a dive shop, as the local ingredients are fresh and delicious. (For example, Coron Divers: Open 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM, located at Don Pedro Street, Barangay 4, Coron Town Proper.) Day 4 You can choose to dive again or opt for snorkeling or island hopping. Coron's many small islands offer pristine white beaches, coconut palms, and creamy blue waters—a must-see! If you have time, you can also book a massage at a local spa to truly chill you out. 🔍Practical Tips: - Don't be nervous on your first dive. Follow the instructor's instructions and slowly learn the basic breathing techniques. It won't take long to adjust and you'll be enjoying the feeling of drifting freely in the ocean. - It's recommended to bring sun protection clothing, a swimsuit, and a waterproof bag. Choose environmentally friendly, reef-safe sunscreen to protect the coral reef ecosystem. - Don't eat too much before your diving course. You can also take seasickness medication beforehand to prevent discomfort. - Check your diving insurance before departure and choose a licensed, reputable dive shop (such as Coron Divers or Reggae Dive Center). 🏖️Transportation Tips - There are direct flights from Manila to Coron Airport. Upon arrival, you can take a shared bus or arrange a transfer from your resort. - Transportation in town is mostly by tuk-tuk, which is convenient and inexpensive for short commutes, costing around 20-30 pesos per trip. 🍽️ Food Recommendations Coron Town has many restaurants specializing in seafood and Filipino barbecue, and the overwater La Sirenetta Restaurant & Bar is particularly popular. Address: Real St, Coron Town Proper, Coron, Palawan Hours: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM A Coron diving trip is all about dancing with the sea and experiencing the tranquility and majesty of the underwater world. I was a bit nervous about my first dive, but with the instructor, it's truly stress-free to enjoy the wonders of nature. #CoronDiving #IslandTravel #BeginnerDiving #UnderwaterAdventure #VacationRecommendations
