..Coron Town Tour..

Coron Island Palawan is a limestone island and known for its cleanest lake in the Philippines, the Kayangan Lake. Its crystal clear water is ideal for swimming, snorkeling and diving. Those are some of the reason why we decided for our next trip is Coron ^_^. This time we get a tour package from Coron Wonders since most of our activities are island hoping. Upon arriving at Coron we headed straight to our hotel, Island View Inn located at middle of the town and just a walk away from the church, plaza, market, banks and other establishments. Also they have a roof deck restaurant overlooking the Coron Bay.

Our tour started with Town Proper Familiarization with Kuya Edward our tricycle driver and tour guide, he showed us the the municipal hall, the church, plaza, market and Coron bay. We had our snack at the Coron Bay and ate some dirty ice cream ^^. There we took a some picture of the place.

Next stop is Mt. Tapyas, Kuya Edward dropped us there to conquer the popular and the second highest place in Coron. We have to climb 720++ steps to reach the top and don't forget to bring water, lots of water. Way to Mt. Tapyas is well developed its has a concrete steps and rails, it also have several benches to take some rest when going up or down. At the top you will see a huge steel white cross and a panoramic view of whole Coron town. We started our trekking before 5PM and I can say its the best time to go there because we were able to see the breathtaking and stunning view of the sunset at Coron. Its really worth it going up so I suggest to include it to your Coron visit.

After the trekking at Mt. Tapyas, it best to close and pamper the day at Maquinit Hot Spring. It is about 30 minutes away from the town proper, the pool is very hot at the first dip and the water is salty. But its very relaxing when you have dip your whole body. The sun is already set when we arrive at the hot spring so we are not able to see the view of Mangroves surrounding the place. We took our dinner prepared by the Coron Wonders and spend an hour of the night dipping our body at the hot spring. Its so very relaxing ^_^ after that we went to our hotel to take some rest and prepare for our Island Hopping tomorrow.
