[Philippines] "Coron Island" - a spectacular sight worthy of being called the last uncharted territory

Palawan Island, located in the southwest of the Philippines

Palawan Island is famous for El Nido, which is said to be the last unexplored place created by God.

Coron Island, located about 115km away from El Nido, boasts a beauty that surpasses that of the original El Nido.

The unexplored-like image that is sometimes used as a promotional photo for "The Last Unexplored Place El Nido" is actually located on Coron Island.

Strictly speaking, Coron Island is an archipelago of several small islands, and the center of Coron Town is Busuanga Island.

Island hopping is a standard activity with Busuanga as the base, and the most popular spot is the view from the observation deck on an island that is home to Kayangan Lake, a brackish lake that is said to have the highest transparency in Asia, located on a small remote island.

There are many travel agencies in town that handle local tours, so it is recommended to make reservations in advance. No need to make a reservation

Tours in the Philippines basically include an English guide and a lunch buffet, and even half-day tours are very reasonable at just a few thousand yen

(Whether snorkel masks and other items are free to rent depends on the agency)

Transportation from Manila and Cebu in the Philippines is poor, and there are only a few flights. Boat trips take about 8 to 14 hours (depending on the destination and shipping company)

In recent years, resort hotels and other things have finally started to increase, but Coron Island is still a traditional Philippine countryside island, with a rustic, untouched nature and wonderful sea
