Coron Revisited

Coron is a town located in the northern part of Palawan in Busuanga Island. It is popularly known as a haven for divers.  Sunken Japanese warships off Coron Island are listed in Forbes Traveler Magazine’s top 10 best scuba diving sites in the world. 


It is my 2nd time in Coron. The last time I came here was over 7 years ago (can't remember the date exactly). At that time, I wasnt able to explore Coron. We stayed at Sea Dive Resort & visited Calauit Island. Now at my 2nd visit, not much have changed in Coron. Rough roads still exist & there are a lot of newly built commercial establishments due to the influx of tourists visiting the town. It was still the same Coron I knew back then, rustic & outback in nature.


Let me share the enchanting beauty of Coron through my lens...Enjoy!
