Sailing Snorkeling and Swimming in Coron Palawan

It's been over 2 weeks since we came back from our Palawan trip. I must say it was really enjoyable and unforgettable experience that I'm still hungover from it. I was so happy to be back at one of my most favorite place in the Philippines and this time Khenzie was with us so it made the trip even more unforgettable. 

I wanted this trip to be stress free so i just availed of the services of our hotel Sunrise Pension House.

Touchdown Busuanga

We landed in Busuanga Airport around 10:30 am via Cebu Pacific Air. From the waiting area our driver approached us then we boarded into the air- conditioned van and headed off Coron town.

The travel time took about 30 minutes. Driving through this Jurassic Park -esque was very nice. Mountains after mountains with thousands of birds and cattle roaming freely.  :D

Shortly after we arrive at the hotel it started raining really hard that all we could do was to stay in our room and watch tv. For our dinner, Mommy Glo (the owner) cooked a very delicious dinner for us, spicy crab cooked with coconut milk, squid and pork adobo.

 

Day 2 .....

While Ryan decided to do some wreck diving Clinton and I decided to do the Coron Island Tour. The tour includes 5 sites.

1. Kayangan Lake my most favorite spot in Coron. Please click the link for more pictures of Kayangan Lake.

I feel so blessed having been able to see places like this with the loves of my life.

This is Paradise - Kayangan Lake

Undoubtedly the best part of our Coron Island Tour. Though i love every corner of Coron Palawan, Kayangan Lake has my heart. Kayangan Lake and its surrounding waters is home to indigenous Tagbanua tribe. There is about seven lake here but only 2 is open to public. The place hasn't change much from 3 years ago. It is still very enchanting.  The views at every corner is just breathtaking. The stillness of water, huge limestone formation and lush vegetation gives me a very peaceful sensation.Thank you Tagbanua tribe for sharing this magical place with us.

Welcome to Manila Clinton

My good friend Clinton just arrived from Hongkong today. 

He is here to attend  his brother's wedding and some good beach bumming. Our first beach getaway is Coron, Palawan. Aaaagh I can't wait. Coron and Boracay are my most favorite place here in the Philippines. Khenzie is coming with us also so it would be even more fun. I really hope the sun would show us some love this weekend though.  

 

Bohol Island Escapade

Bohol is one of the best places we have visited. This island has lots of things to offer that you will surely enjoy. Since Bohol is big looking for  affordable package tour is important. I spent days searching on internet of who can provide me a cheaper tour. PackageTour is paid per peson most of the price that i found was ranging from 3,500 to 5000. But since there was only 3 of us, 2 adult and one kid it's not really practical to pay per pax so i opted to just rent a car for 2000 pesos.  A car can fit 4 person. They have their own list of places to go but you can ditch some of it and replace it with the other things/places you like

Beautiful Blue

The clearest water we've ever seen!

Beautiful Blue

 

Kayangan lake in Palawan is so magical, definitely one of the most beautiful place on earth. Sooo inlove with this place that my boyfriend and i made a promise to come back. The uphill climb is very challenging as the mountain stairs are very steep and slippery sometimes. I swear, I was literally out of breath when we got on top. The place is just simply mesmerizing. Turquoise ocean waters and massive limestones even under water. We were so lucky to have the whole place for ourselves for most of the afternoon.
