Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Your accredited tour guide will lead you on a short scenic trek uphill, about 10–15 minutes, where you’ll be treated to the iconic postcard view of Coron. After a quick photo stop, descend to the enchanting Kayangan Lake—known for its crystal-clear freshwater surrounded by limestone cliffs. Here, you can swim, float, and take in the surreal tranquility of the lake.

Stop 2

Your guide will assist as you disembark and take a few steps to reach Barracuda Lake. Known for its unique underwater rock formations and thermocline layers, it's perfect for a refreshing swim or a quick free dive. Life vests and guides are always nearby for safety.

Stop 3

As the boat approaches, your guide will explain how the warm and cold waters mix in this magical spot. Depending on the tide, you’ll either swim through a narrow crevice or climb a wooden ladder to reach the hidden second lagoon. Enjoy the serenity and take your time exploring or floating in this peaceful haven.

Relax, take a dip, or sunbathe on this white-sand public beach surrounded by shallow turquoise waters. The beach is perfect for casual swimming, wading, and snapping carefree island photos.

Stop 5

Grab your snorkels again! This vibrant reef is bursting with marine life. Your guide may even help you spot clownfish, sea urchins, and soft corals as you float over the garden of colors. It’s a must-see for nature lovers and underwater photographers.

Time to snorkel! Your guide will give safety instructions and point out the sunken WWII shipwreck, which is shallow enough to see clearly from the surface. Marvel at the colorful fish and coral that now call this wreck home.

Stop 7

Sometime midday, your boat will dock at a designated beach for lunch, which may vary depending on availability. There, your crew will serve a Filipino-style buffet with grilled seafood, meats, rice, tropical fruits, and drinks—all enjoyed by the shore under shaded huts or trees. It's a laid-back, refreshing break with beautiful island views.

What's not included

Mask & Snorkel Set Available for rent—ideal for a clear and comfortable snorkeling experience at Coral Garden, Skeleton Wreck, and other vibrant underwater spots.
