Pick up by our guide for a start to your safari. First on the tour is the Coron Souvenir Shop. Buy some souvenirs. The souvenir shop is located along the main road. You can find here any “pasalubong” stuff like keychains, ref magnets, t-shirts, wall display and many more.
After buying some souvenirs, head to Lualhati Park. The park is situated in a reclaimed area together with the public market and tourist dock for the boats that are going to and from the tourist spots. The park has a nice view of Coron Island.
Next on our tour is Mt. Tapyas. It is probably the most popular landmark in the town of Coron. It is called “Tapyas” (which can be translated to chipped off) because the side mountain has been chipped off when it got bombarded during World War 2. Getting to the view deck is a little challenge since you have to climb 700+ steps but, it’s sure worth it to reach the top.
Continue your tour to Maquinit Hotspring with a stop at Coron Cashew Harvest to buy some roasted cashews. Cashew or “Kasuy” is very common in Busuanga and Coron that is why you can always see someone selling cashews.
Last stop is at Maquinit Hotspring in Brgy. Tagumpay, around 10 to 15-minute ride from the town. A natural hot spring set along a beautiful mangrove forest and shore. Take a dip and feel your body relax. The road going here is a little bumpy. The temperature in the pool is around 30 to 40 degree Celsius. From the main pool, you can have a beautiful view of the sea. There are also cottages and tables available. End the tour with a drop to the port.
