Busuanga Island and Coron Town - Palawan Philippines | JOEJOURNEYS
Coron also refers to Coron town on neighbouring Busuanga Island where the airport and most accommodation is located, as well as daytime boat trips that are the only way to visit the tribe-protected Coron island itself.
Coron is best known for world-class WWII-era wreck diving, though the area also offers limestone karst landscapes, crystal-clear freshwater lakes and shallow-water coral reefs, and even hot springs.
A few things to do in Coron Town and around:
-Mt. Tapyas is the second tallest mountain and one of the most dominant land features around the town of Coron in Busuanga Island, Palawan. Towering over the town at 210 meters clearly marked by the white cross and the Coron Hollywood style signage, its trail is easily accessible on foot.
-Maquinit Hot Spring is perfect of an end of day activities where you just want to soak in the thermal spring.
-Coron Public Market located on the harbour facing the island of Coron, a market of local items from fish, poultry, meat, fruit and vegetable.
Almost all beaches and attractions are located on nearby small islands, which are only accessible via boat tour, daily boat charter or by staying in one of the higher-end resorts that are the only accommodation option on most populated islands.
Many visitors travel to/from El Nido region by boat and options of more island hopping with overnight stays on islands along the way.

SCUBA DIVING Coron Palawan Philippines | WRECK diving w/ Exploring with Cody
Coron Palawan Philippines is becoming legendary. World class island hopping and beautiful blue water is reason enough to visit. It's already paradise for adventure travel, but the Scuba diving in Coron is a hidden secret. Not many know that it is home to some of the best wreck diving in the world.
Just north of Palawan Island, and about 30 meters below the surface in Coron Bay is a fleet of Japanese warships, sunk by American bombers in 1944 as they were fleeing the Philippines. These ships are massive. Some are over 150 meters long, and almost completely intact.
In this Philippines travel vlog, I team up with Exploring with Cody, and we tag team this incredible location. This was one of my favourite adventures in the Philippines. Let's go back!

CORON PALAWAN ( Free diving & Island hopping) Philippines travel vlog
Island hopping in Coron Palawan Philippines!
In this travel vlog I join Exploring with Cody in a Filipino adventure to visit Kayangan Lake, Twin Lagoon, Barracuda lake, and Skeleton Wreck. These incredible islands have been called the most beautiful in the world. If you plan to travel South East Asia, this has to be on your bucket list. It is definitely one of the best places to travel in the Philippines
We had a couple days between scuba diving the shipwrecks of Coron Bay, and exploring El Nido, Palawan. We decided to spend it Island hopping in Coron with our friend Jette. We wanted to do the tour a little bit differently, so we organized a private boat for us three, and left an hour earlier than other boats. This paid off in the end, because these islands are getting very very busy, and we were able to miss most of the crowds.

Diving the WW2 Shipwrecks of Busuanga Bay, Coron (Philippines)
Full blog on
In the last few years, Coron has been become famous over instagram— clear waters entice visitors form all over the world to investigate the abundant and unpralleled marine environment. Coron ranks as my most memorable dive location; the World War 2 wrecks were a bucket list item for me. As a graduate with a degree in history, Coron was not on my radar because of instagram, I knew about it due to my studies on the war in the Pacific.
.
.
While the Philippines has become a tourist hotspot, the history of Japanese occupation during WW2 lies relatively invisible to the average visitor, unless you go underwater.
.
.
Following the Battle of Manila in 1945, the Japanese navy fled to the protected area of Busuanga Bay, Coron. The American forces bombarded the limping Japanese navy and for several weeks the waters of Coron were filled with oil, sunken vessels, and blood.
.
.
While the seven ships in Busuanga Bay are a popular dives, it is important that we educate ourselves on the manner in which the wrecks came into existence. While the war in Europe has consumed much of global studies on World War 2, it is imperative to recognize the suffering and events which simultaniously occurred in South East Asia, specifically the Philippines. While I enjoyed the aesthetics of the dive, what makes Coron so notable is the ability to visit the physical wrecks and pay my respects to an important moment in history as well as the people, on all sides, who perished.
BBL Divers, Busuanga, Palawan, Philippines - Irako Engineroom on Rebreather
Diving Coron Bay with BBL Divers!
Technical Rebreather dive on Irako, the deepest and arguably the most interesting wreck in the bay. Perfect for technical dives OC or CCR, or experienced recreational divers interested to venture a little deeper and improve their knowledge. This video features the engine room of this famous Japanese WWII refrigeration vessel. After significant damage due to bombing there is little still in tact except a few turbine pieces, some epicly eery hanging galleyways, but the main feature is in the machine room in the corner of the large space, after a tight squeeze we're exposed to a lathe with a piece of metal still in it, and a drill press along with a very silty room, special precaution is very necessary on this dive. But it is extremely fun and exciting. Find us online at:

El Nido to Coron Ferry (Staying in a Local Filipino Village in Busuanga) | Philippines Travel
Today we set off from El Nido to Coron on the ferry. It was a pretty straightforward journey to Coron, but once we got there we had to find our way to a local Filipino village called Concepcion. We were also confused that the island is actually called Busuanga, but everyone seems to refer to it as Coron!
We took the Q bus from Coron Town to Concepcion and immediately fell in love with the peaceful, local feel of the village.
