Kayangan Lake - Coron

Picturesque Coron Island Cove

From all the places included in the Coron Island Hopping Tour my personal favorite would be Kayangan Lake. The lake, with its limestone cliff formations and clear water is often referred to by local and foreign tourists as Blue Lagoon. It is also dubbed as the cleanest lake in Asia. Swimming in it's brackish water (freshwater with a bit of salty water) is the most refreshing thing to do. In fact, tourists seemed to not get enough of it. These local tourists boys wouldn't want to vacate the edge of the lake where they sit and wade thru the waters. We were waiting for them to leave :) so we can take their cozy little nook. :) The weather was perfect, with a little bit of rain and the water temperature just right too. With the limestone cliffs on the background it's really picture perfect.

Entrance to the lake after a 10 to 20 min trek

Kayangan Lake is part of the Coron Isand Hopping Tour.
Other places we visited during the said tour are:
1. Siete Pecados - is named after seven islets near the entrance of Coron Bay called Siete Pecados
2. Banol Beach
3. CYC Beach - this is where tour operators spread their lunch for the guests.
4. Twin Peak Reef
5. Balinsasayaw Floating House

Tour Cost : P 850/person (if you go with a group) It includes boat transfer, use of life vest , all entrance fees, drinks and snacks, tour guide services , buffet lunch .

Tour cost is pretty much the same price with tour operators in Coron but you may probably snag a discount if you're a big group. I recommend Nice in Paradise tour for they really took good care of us during our trip. Special kudos to them.
