“Always put in mind, in your trip to Coron, Palawan, that this will be the last time to see its majestic view, so enjoy it, cherish it and experience it to the fullest!”
1. VISIT CALAUIT, OUR VERY OWN SAFARI
Top 5 things to do in Coron, Palawan
You don’t have to dream of an
African tour to witness the wildlife it offers.
Just book a flight to Coron, Palawan and
presto! You have your piece of African
safari, ready and within your reach.

were all imported from Kenya.
2. SNORKELING ACTIVITIES, UNDERWATER DELIGHT
Top 5 things to do in Coron, Palawan
Just like the rest of Palawan island,
Coron, has its own share of underwater
treasure- magnificent coral formation
and marine life forms.
Diving tips: Perfect coral gardens can be
found in Lusong, Atuayan, and Decalve
Marine Park. The most famous is the Siete
Pecados Reef, covered by a variety of
corals from staghorn to gorgonia fans.
3. WRECK-DIVING, WORLD RENOWNED
Top 5 things to do in Coron, Palawan
In 2007, Forbes Traveler Magazine named
Coron’s shipwrecks as one of the 10 Best
Scuba Diving sites in the World. Magnificent
coral formations, abundant marine life forms,
and fascinating ship wrecks – these are the
wonderful scenery awaiting travelers under
the waters of Coron.
History: During the World War II, several
Japanese vessels were doomed to sink
under Coron waters by the US Navy Force.
4. LAKE AND LAGOON HOPPING
Top 5 things to do in Coron, Palawan
There are eight lakes but only two of
them are open to the public for trekking.
Barracuda Lake sounds intimidating, or even
frightening to some, but it reveals a
fascinating surprise when you put your mask
on. The cliffs that dive into its depth appear
oddly intriguing, as if it hides a secret world.
Trivia: Kayangan Lake is said to be one of the
cleanest in the country. It has become the
flagship destination of Coron, thanks to its
crystal clear water, cradled in between karst
cliffs.
5. TREKKING TO MT. TAPYAS
Top 5 things to do in Coron, Palawan
It is the second tallest peak in Coron and
is a popular first stop because of its
accessibility. Mt. Tapyas may be reached on
foot from the city center. At 210 meters, it is
a dominant natural structure, towering over
the town. It’s an easy climb; a concrete
staircase leads to the summit. There are
plenty of covered “rest stops” along the way
so if you have the time, it doesn’t have to be
that difficult. If you could, go in the late
afternoon and catch the most breathtaking
view of the islands during sunset.
