Coron Vacation: Things to Do and Places to Go in One of Philippine’s Most Beautiful Destinations

 Bulungan Island

Another good thing about getting a package deal from tour companies is that the package includes lunch. We had our lunch at Bulungan Island. There wasn’t much to do here but it was still a scenery worth capturing.

Hidden Lagoon

After a hearty meal, we then transferred to the Hidden Lagoon. This was one of my favorite stops for the day because of the warm/cold water in the lagoon. According to our tour guide Ranielle, fresh water and salt water mix at the lagoon, this mixture is what was causing the varying temperatures in the water. The fresh water above felt really cool, while the warm water below was kind of warm. I always joked around thinking someone was peeing beside me when this happens (haha), at least now I know!

Kayangan Lake

Next up was Kayangan Lake. Before getting to the lake, we had to climb this small hill that was around a hundred steps to the top. The view on top is well worth the climb so don’t worry!

After a bunch of pictures, we climbed down the other side to get to the lake itself. I was told this lake used to be clear as the crystal but got a tad bit dirty after it became too commercialized. It’s wonderful that people come and visit beautiful places likes these, but please remember to keep it as it is when you go to help preserve its beauty.

Kayangan Lake was our last stop for the day. We left the hotel at around 8am and got back at 4pm! It was amazing how many islands we got to visit in just one day. Keep reading to see Malcapuya Island – a real treasure in Coron!
