Coron Travel Blogs

Aaaah… where do I begin? Should I describe Coron as an Island Paradise waiting to be discovered [more], or do I say it's one of the finest beach islands there are in the region, or better yet the best beach weekend for me this year perhaps? I guess I already started and I would definitely …

There is some great news this morning. There will be a boat going to San Jose at noon. And I got a ticket on the boat. The not so great news is my German dive buddy has let me down he will not go with me. Bastard now I just may get to this amazing place where you got a boat going out to the bes…

In March 2008 I traveled for 18 days in the Philippines. I visited Makati, Manila, Coron (Palawan), Lemmery (Batangas) and Las Pinas City.

As early as Jan, my cousins and i booked our flights to & from Busuanga via Cebu Pacific, 9am ETD. Other airlines with cheaper flight rates were already fully booked on the dates we scheduled for this trip. Really need to plan way way ahead if one is on a budget trip. Being a "lakwachera" mysel…

I started my summer early last February 13 -15, 2009. First leg of my summer was Coron, Palawan. My friend Pia who has been enduring the cold weather of Okinawa for the past year, came home and dragged me off to Palawan. We chose Coron because I have been hearing about the fantastic rock forma…

A memorable trip to Coron, Palawan. Great way to celebrate my birthday :)

It was indeed a memorable trip. Good thing I was able to use up all my 2GB of storage in my digicam to store photos and videos of this trip. I can't wait for our next destination!

10.18.08 | This year, I decided to spend my bday outside Metro Manila with my family. I was itching to travel somewhere this year since I spent my last birthday in Bohol with my College barkada and it so rocked! This year though I want to do something different.. go somewhere I've ne…

CORON is a small town located at the northern tip of PALAWAN. It serves as a gateway to the Calamianes Group of Islands where one could find well-preserved islands and islets with white sand beaches, crystal clear waters, rich marine life, and limestone cliffs.

We finally got on the boat the next day and it turned out to be an interesting experience. Instead of 3 hours (like the ticket guy told us), it was 7 hours in a 13-person banka. The banka was quite ok, but when it started raining the trip became a really wet experience. But the only option of getti…

My initial plans were to backpack in Philippines for some 3-4 weeks before going to Indonesia. Well the trip did not start very well, i dropped my camera in Singapore while in transit on the way to Manila and it never started. Then after 10 days in Philippines needed to get back to office. But still for the 10 days I was there, made the most of it, enjoyed in Coron, El Nido, Sabang, Puerto Princesca.

It had been over 4 years since I last stepped foot in the motherland. I still have a love/hate relationship with Manila, but this time around it was more love than hate.

It was an interesting boattrip from El Nido to Coron. 2 hours out of the harbour the engine broke down and we drifted for 4 hours 2 kms off shore of an island where only some fishermen lived, waiting for help. The boat we had wasn't already too big and the substitute was even smaller (and without t…
