An enjoyable Island hopping in Coron

We scheduled our island hopping in Coron during our 3rd day availing the package tour from Coron Galeri for 650 per pax including boat rental, needed permits, guided tour, and lunch. We also rented snorkelibg gear for 100 each. What's nice with Coron Galeri is they allow joined tour with walk-ins and other travelers to save so if you are couple or group of 4 they will join you in other groups. Luckily we are group of 6 so our tour was. most likely a private one. Coron Galeri also offers private tour and other tours. 

Our call time was 8 in the morning so we took breakfast first in an eatery near Coron Galeri. After some registration and boat assignement, the exciting adventure started. What we visited were the following:

1. CYC Island (Coron Youth Club Island) - according to our boatman this island was once a paradise until other private resort took advantage and stole its white sand.

2. Twin Peak We really enjoyed swimming, snorkeling and fish feeding here. We really enjoyed the view and the activities. Photos will not lie how we super relished our island hopping activity in Coron! It was Super FUN! It is called Twin Peak reefs because of the presence of two giant limestone rock formation like a twin tower. This place is best for snorkeling to see corals and fishes. The water here is super clear.

3. Isla Bulunganis a small island near Twin Peak (fish feeding area) where we took our lunch. It is called as such because 'bulungan" means to heal and it's a place for Pinoy Healers a long time ago.

4. Hidden Lagoon Hidden lagoon is a place where fresh water and salt water meet - hot and cold. The view here is astounding because it is completely walled in by mountains. we really enjoyed relaxing here and water is just 5 feet.

5. Kayangan Lake You can reach the viewing deck and the lake for about 10 to 15 minutes hike. One of the most outstanding places in Coron is Kayangan Lake with scenic view of gigantic limestone formation, beautiful lake with turquoise blue water and the clearest fresh water lake i have seen. Swimming is very refreshing and the view of rock formation underneath is just amazing. This place is the most awesome scenery i have only seen in postcards. Most especially the stunning view at the viewing deck is so breathtaking. Truly a hidden PARADISE! Beautiful Coron!
