About this tour

Coron in northern Palawan is consistently rated as having the best island hopping scenery in the Philippines — and possibly all of Southeast Asia. The standard tour hits the greatest hits: Kayangan Lake (the cleanest lake in Asia according to a 1998 study), Twin Lagoon (swim under a low cliff to find a hidden second lagoon), Barracuda Lake (unusual thermoclines make the water feel like stepping between warm and cold pools), and the skeleton-covered World War II Japanese shipwrecks just below the surface at Skeleton Wreck.

The landscape around Coron is otherworldly — jagged limestone karsts rising vertically from glassy flat water, with jungle clinging to every surface. Coron is also world-famous for wreck diving — the bay holds 12 Japanese WWII shipwrecks sunk in 1944 — but the island hopping tours are accessible to non-divers.

Frequently asked questions

Is Coron better than El Nido?
Different. El Nido has more famous lagoons and beaches. Coron has better wreck diving, Kayangan Lake, and feels less crowded. Many visitors do both.
Do I need diving experience for Coron?
No — the island hopping tour is 100% snorkeling. The WWII wrecks are in shallow water (3–5 meters) and visible while snorkeling. For deeper wreck diving, separate scuba tours are available.
