Coron Vacation Guide

Coron is part of the Calamines group of islands in the northern tip of Palawan, in the Luzon region of the Philippines. A fishing village off Busuanga, it is the home of the Tagbanua tribe. And though it may be a small coastal town, Coron has much to offer - from white sandy beaches to limestone formations, coral gardens, sheltered lakes, coves and hot springs (Maquinit). The numerous Japanese naval wrecks from WW2 also contribute as a major attraction, making Coron an underwater haven for divers and snorkelers.
