Day 5
Coron | Town Fish Market
CORON,
On November 15 we spent the last day of our
trip at the Coron town fish market. We arrived
at the market at early 08:20 am. It takes 2
PALAWAN
minutes to ride a car, or motorcycle from PHILIPPINES
Coron Town Plaza to Coron Town Fish Market,
while it takes 5 minutes to walk. At this hour
you can see a variety of fresh fish in the
market that is perfect for breakfast and
launch.
Coron public market was not that big, it is
around a tenth of the usual size of
marketplaces found in manila. The market is
located on the right beside the breakwater. As
a newcomer in the place, we settled for the
fish that looked familiar. One vendor offered
us a good-sized tuna for only Php55.00, really
cheap, and we ended up buying 3. We search
for some red meat to pair up with the tuna
fish so we bought a quarter kilo of pork
liempo. Also, some tomatoes, bananas, rice,
a jar of water, and some coals for cooking and
were good to go. The whole lot cost us
Php530.00. And we can say for the 5 days trip
we have here in Coron, Palawan, we enjoyed Angelica Catapang
Tania Sayson
it, and will never regret of traveling here.

Day 1
Coron | Kayangan Lake
We arrived at Kayangan Lake in Coron,
Palawan, on November 11 at 7:00 a.m. as our
first stop. Kayangan Lake location is in Coron,
Palawan. To get there, take a flight to
Busuanga. From the airport, ride a shuttle to
Coron town. Take the Coron Island loop boat
tour, which includes Kayangan Lake.
Kayangan Lake is a crystal-clear freshwater
lake in Coron, featuring underwater rock
formations, caves, and islets. It is surrounded
by towering limestone cliffs dotted with
greenery. The water is so clear that you can
see through to the rock formations beneath the
surface. It's a popular spot for photographers,
for fairly obvious reasons, and is said to be the
cleanest lake in all of the Philippines.
Before reaching the famous tourist spot, you
need to take a steep 10-15 minutes uphill
climb of approximately 300 steps towards the
inland lake. The Kayangan Lake entrance fee is
P300 ($6) per person as of writing.
Day 2
Coron | Mount Tapyas
On November 12, 09:00 am we arrived at
Mt. Tapyas. We travel by riding car. The
distance between Kayanga Lake to Mt,
Kapayas is 17 miles, so we arrived in almost
27 minutes, but if you travel by bus, it cost
31 pesos.
Mt. Tapyas is the most popular viewpoint in
Coron town, Busuanga. It is the second
tallest mountain and one of the most
dominant land features around the town. It
is 210 meters, so it takes about 724 steps to
get to the peak of the mountain. It’s
definitely a sweat fest, though every step is
worth it when you reach the summit. About
three-quarters of the way, you’ll catch the
first glimpse of Coron Bay which has an
extraordinary view. It’s best to take a couple
of photos. Better photo spots can be found
around the backside of the mountain,
boasting views of rolling hills, grassy trails,
and a front-on view facing west where the
sunsets. Continue around to where you’ll see
the sun setting over the bay and find a nice
spot to perch up on the side of the hill. There
is no entrance fee in Mt. Tapyas you can visit
it whenever you want.
Day 3
Coron | Twin Lagoon
There are plenty of must-see attractions in
Coron, and Twin Lagoon is one of the most
popular. This great location is a lagoon made
up of two bodies of water separated by
stunning limestone cliffs on one of the several
islets that make up the Calamian Archipelago
in Palawan. You'll feel the warm seawater on
your skin as you step off the boat, and as you
travel further into the lagoon when clean
water runs, you'll feel it becoming cooler.
✓ How do you get to Twin Lagoon Palawan
The only way to get to Twin Lagoons is by
boat, either as part of a group tour or by
hiring your own private boat. We
recommend hiring your own boat as you
can pick the time you go and you have
complete control.
✓ Entrance fee
Twin Lagoon has one of the more
expensive entrance fees in Coron at 200
pesos per person ($4 USD). You will pay
the entrance fee to your boat crew if you
are on a private trip and it will be included
already if you are on a group tour.
