Another bucketlist checked for me as I explore the most beautiful island of the world. Coron Palawan has been crowned and claimed to be the best. Truly its amazing adventure that you must try here in the Philippines.
I'd been always trying my luck to get the cheapest flight from Cebu to Palawan. Luckily, Cebupacificair has new direct flight from Cebu to Coron and it is somehow in a seat sale. I got my round-trip ticket for only PHP1,298 all in with 7kilograms hand-carry luggage. The best deal ever!
Since I will be new to the place, I booked a room for my accommodation through travelbook.ph. There are many hotels that are affordable that you can Pay at the Hotel as your payment method. I booked Luis Bay Travellodger Inn as it offers single fan room with private CR. It only costs 400 pesos per night.
I arrived at 1:30 PM in Busuanga Airport. I can only say that the airport is really small and silent. If you are travelling in Coron without any confirmed tour, you don't need to worry because there are lots of agencies that accepts walk-in. Many flyers that you can get as your reference when you get inside the airport. There are also vans that will take you to your hotel. Just let them know which hotel will you stay and its 150 pesos going to Town proper or to your hotel.
During my first Day in Coron Palawan.

As soon as I arrived to the hotel, I contacted the #BeCoolTravelandTours to have the #TownTour. The town tour mostly starts at 4:00 PM and ends at 7 or 8PM.. I paid 500 includes the Van transfer, tour guide and all the entrance fees.

Coron has more to offer and you can find tour packages anywhere at the town. Better to get flyers from the airport and try to compare the prices.
*Traveltips
You will really need to get wet of your island tour so be prepared of having the waterproof case for your fon or dry bag if you have.
*Where to Stay?
If you are not really clingy, there are affordable fan rooms that has private CR already. You will be out for tour for whole day so I suggest you may avail the least accomodation and spend more for tours.
*Where to eat?
Foods here are quite higher than Cebu or Manila. They have different specialty each of the restaurants so you may just need to try whatever reataurants that is near from your hotel.

The Forest Camp is located 11.5 Kilometers (6 Miles) of paved road west of Dumaguete City. 20 minutes is all it takes to reach paradise; away from the noise and pollution of city life. The resort is 2.5 Hectares of nature at its best, a valley under a canopy of tropical, indigenous forest trees. It has a river passing through its landscape with cascading sound blending perfectly with the welcoming songs of birds and applause of leaves. Enhancing the scenery is its constantly cool ambiance being 800 feet above sea level. Indeed it is one of the main attractions of Valencia, Negros Oriental. Sticking to its natural beauty concept, it has 9 cold spring swimming pools designed to appear like natural lagoons formed by the river. Inside is a 90 meter zip line that crosses the river and over the swimming pools, parallel to a hanging bridge. It is the safest and shortest zip line in the world! It also has a 30 foot climbing wall and a 25 by 25 meter skate bowl for modern exe
Discovering another famous island in the Philippines. Isla Gigantes is one of the tourist destinations that really captures the eyes of not just foreigners but also locals. It's just like paradise that you wanted to stay even if there is no internet connection or even electricity. Well, it's not just one island that you will discover when you visit the region/province, see it below. This is not my first time in Iloilo City but its my first time to explore the famous island. People that you travel with, also added the wonderful experience during this trip.

It is also my first time to meet and greet for those traveler came from different places in the Philippines.
