The 15 Best Coron Tours: Lakes, Wrecks & Reefs

63 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.6 average  ·  from $18

Coron stacks its best bits close together: Kayangan Lake behind a ridge, Barracuda Lake’s thermocline, the wrecks of a supply fleet sunk in the bay in 1944, and a hot spring for the evening. The 15 below differ on how many of the seven stops they reach before lunch, and on whether the boat is shared.

Coron Ultimate Tour: 7 Destinations with Lunch & Transfers

1.Coron Ultimate Tour: 7 Destinations with Lunch & Transfers

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 754 reviews · 1 day · from $46Our pick

One day of Coron island hopping with hotel transfers, snorkeling, swimming at 7 iconic stops, and a hearty buffet lunch for $46.

“Activity was super nice! Guides were great and food was yummy ^^ However since we have limited time, only 40 mins were assigned to each spot and you could not really have time to soak the beautiful views in. But we understand that with the number of spots that we had to visit there needs to be a time limit!”

Coron: Private Boat Hire with Guided Tour and Lunch on Beach

2.Private Boat Hire with Guided Tour and Lunch on Beach

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 658 reviews · 8 hours · from $142Top rated

Private Coron Island boat day with an English guide, snorkeling stops, and a beach or onboard lunch, plus a route timed to skip crowds.

“We did this tour and our experience was great. Our guide, Hazel, was not only friendly but also an expert at avoiding the crowds. She was very flexible and adjusted the stops to our preferences, and we never felt rushed or pressured regarding the time spent at each spot. In all the places we visited, we saw very few people, making the experience much more enjoyable. The food served onboard was fresh and delicious, so I highly recommend it. Just as a note: they are very transparent about prices, but we spent around 30 euros more per person on kayak and conservation fees.”

Coron: Private Boat Hire with Bespoke Guided Tour

3.Private Boat Hire with Bespoke Guided Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 427 reviews · from $118

Private Coron boat hire for up to 4, with market shopping, a guided island-hopping route, snorkeling, and a cooked-on-board picnic for 8 hours.

“Definitely 10 out of 5 stars! I don’t think I’ve ever experienced such incredible hospitality. The highlight of the trip was the personalized lunch—the team cooks a meal based on whatever you buy from the market that morning, just before the trip begins. You can also spend as much time as you like at each stop, which made the experience feel truly relaxed and personal. The guide and his wife were absolutely amazing. We left a tip of 1000 pesos for them, but they certainly deserved even more. I would highly recommend this experience to everyone!”

Big problem was they forgot to pick me up from my hotel, when I rang was told still picking up but then a tuk tuk arrived and got to pier. Our boat had just left but thankfully cam back to pick us up. 2 different pickups were missed.”

Coron: Town Tour with Maquinit Hot Spring

10.Town Tour with Maquinit Hot Spring

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 57 reviews · 4 hours · from $18Best value

A half-day Coron town tour with a 700-step climb to Mount Tapyas and a soak in the natural Maquinit saltwater hot spring.

“Worth it for the last 2 stops only (mt. Tapyas & hot springs) if you want an air conditioned drive there and back. Although the van was literally falling apart. There is no need for a tour guide on any of the stops - they mostly wait at the van for you. We were picked up at 3:15pm and dropped off at 8:30pm so beware it finishes a bit later than intended. The first few stops were unnecessary in our opinions - took us to the “I am coron” sign for 20 mins and to a souvenir store. We thought maybe it was a cashew factory or something like that,…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 54 reviews · 8.5 hours · from $148

A private 8.5-hour Coron Island tour hitting Kayangan Lake, Twin Lagoons, shipwreck snorkeling, and Barracuda Lake thermoclines for $148.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (4/5) We had an amazing experience on the Palawan: Coron Island Super Ultimate Private Tour! 🌴 Bong, our tour guide, did an excellent job explaining each lake and lagoon. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and an amazing photographer who captured beautiful memories for us. Armand, the captain, and his assistant (they called him Aquaman or Spiderman) were awesome — fun, helpful, and made the trip feel safe and enjoyable with their great teamwork. The only thing missing was bottled water for the guests, which would’ve been nice on such a hot day. Other than that, it was a perfect adventure. Highly recommended to book your trip with Bong —…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 54 reviews · 8 hours · from $53

8-hour Coron island hopping tour with a licensed guide, reef snorkeling, beach swims, and a kubo buffet lunch for about $53.

“Over priced rip off. Get my guide says starts at 8am but it was closer to 10am before we even set sail. Disgusting false advertising. Way more money than tours available in town. Price for the same tour everywhere is about 1000 peso cheaper. I asked many people who paid way less on my actual boat. This is a con. Get your ticket in Coron. Over crowded tour also. Starting at 8am would have beaten the crowds but everywhere was packed before we even set sail. It’s worth getting together some people and paying between you for a private tour. This is an over priced joke. I’ve traveled all over…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 53 reviews · 8 hours · from $35

Coron Island Tour B: 8 hours for $35 with Twin Lagoon swimming, Barracuda Lake water layers, snorkeling reefs, and lunch at Atuayan Beach.

“We were aware of the added costs for hire, but they absolutely take you for ransom. The whole tour felt scammy and it ruined the vibe for everyone on the boat, with the entire boat angry about the experience. 1500 peso for a kayak is crazy, also being told you can’t do any of the activities unless you hire a kayak. By the time you hire kayak, snorkel, fins and water shoes you are paying way more for hire than the actual tour. We were told for safety we can’t swim to the lagoon only kayak. Only to get to the locations to see lots of other tours swimming. Also…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 34 reviews · from $52

Coron boat tour to Kayangan Lake, Twin Lagoons, snorkel stops and beaches, with buffet lunch and hotel pickup for a full 7-stop day.

“The activity was very well organized and we'll paced, there was ample time to swim, relax and really explore the stops as much as we could in a group tour. The crew was extremely helpful, I was nervous about being the open water but they put me at ease and made sure no one was left behind. My accommodation was also deep in the island and transportation was difficult. Jenny from the agency coordinated everything with so much care I didn't have to worry about anything. She even coordinated directly with my hotel and kept checking till I had reached safely back. It was a beautiful experience overall, the spots…”
