Island Hopping (Destination: Coron, Philippines)

After days of boating and snorkeling on my Tao Philippines trip, I still didn’t have enough and opted for another day of snorkeling out of Coron.  Our tour group when over to Coron Island, a mountainous, karst limestone island.  We swam in Kayangan lake & hiked to a stunning viewpoint.

Lunch was fish, crabs, rice, salad, and some strange pickled seaweed.

There was more snorkeling from the lunch beach.

We snorkeled in the Twin lagoons with alternating hot and cold water due to thermal activity and then snorkeled at Twin Peaks reef and CYC beach.

Back in town, I stopped at the local market for some yummy mangos.

After breakfast, I caught a shuttle to the airport.  I met a couple ladies that were on my day tour the previous day and met their friends.  One woman had stepped on something sharp in the ocean and her foot was very infected.  They had seen several doctors in the islands but it was getting worse and she was now in a wheelchair.  They were heading to Manila to get to a better hospital.

The Cebu Pacific flight was great as I had a great view of the islands and ocean.
