Hidden gem of Coron - Black Island

#2023travelwish It would be an understatement to say this place is absolutely stunning. Anyone staying in Busuanga should take a trip here. Black Island is a little out of the ways, farther out west from Coron Town Proper. It’s on the west side of Busuanga Island. There are some tours that will group the Safari and Black Island together, but we didn’t want to look around elsewhere. We wanted to spend majority of our time on Black Island so we got there ourselves. We rented a bike in town and drove about 2 hours west to Ocam Ocam beach, where we parked our bike and found a family that owned a bangka or a boat. We hired their boat to take us to the island which took another 30 minutes. However, be mindful that depending on the tide, you may not be able to leave to the island right away. On Black Island, you can visit a few caves, one of which has a crystal clear pool of water inside. While it is very refreshing to jump in, there are lots of mosquitoes so you may want to be quick. The next best thing is the beach. The landscape of black rocks is stunning but the water and the reef underwater is beyond beautiful. The captain will wait for you on the boat until you are done with your time there. Then you can take the boat back to Ocam Ocam. #tripblazers #beachlife #coron #philippines #island
