Coron

Why go

Coron is worth considering if your idea of a good trip involves boat days, dramatic limestone scenery and spending more time on the water than on the road.

The famous views are real, but the practical side matters too. The airport is on Busuanga Island, not in Coron town, so your first transfer is part of the trip.

Best for

• Island-hopping days with lakes, lagoons and limestone cliffs.
• Divers who want wrecks and clear water.
• Couples or small groups who want a trip that feels special without needing a long itinerary.

Good to know

Most boat tours start early. Cash is useful. If you arrive late, stay simple on the first night and save the water days for when you are rested.

Coron pairs naturally with El Nido if you have about a week and do not mind one bigger transfer day.
