Top 15 Island Hopping Tours in Coron

1.Coastal Cliffs, Beach & Malcapuya Island Hopping Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 86 reviews · 6 - 8 hours · from $45Our pick

Spend 6 to 8 hours island hopping from Coron by local banca boat, stopping at Banana Island, Malcapuya Island, and Bulog Dos. You’ll swim, snorkel, eat seafood and local BBQ, and return to downtown Coron with hotel pickup included. Confirm snorkeling gear arrangements before booking, since the tour details conflict on this point.

“Una bella attività ma forse sarebbe stato meglio fornire ai clienti dell’acqua in bottiglia invece che in una tanica in condivisione (infatti nessuno ha bevuto). A nice activity but perhaps it would have been better to provide customers with single bottles of water instead of a shared container (in fact no one drank).”

2.Complete Island Hopping Guided Tour with Lunch

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

Join an English or Esperanto-speaking guide for an 8-hour shared boat trip around Coron. Swim at Kayangan Lake, Twin Lagoon, Sunset Beach, and CYC Beach, snorkel at Reef Garden and Skeleton Wreck, visit Barracuda Lake, and eat a Filipino buffet lunch in a traditional kubo. City-center pickup, permits, boat, and water are included.

“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…”

Retirando o tempo do almoço, só tivemos 2h30 nas praias, considero pouco tempo. O almoço deveria ter mais quantidade e proteína para os vegetarianos.”

The down sight of the tour was the boat, on the way to the islands we kept stopping because the motor wouldn’t work properly. The rest of the tour was great. Beautiful islands, good lunch, nice guide Jason.”

“The actual trip was great, the islands were stunning, the team sailing with us were exceptional, but the issue was when I was picked up at my hotel and then dropped off at the dock. I was directed in to the wrong group and nearly ended up on the wrong tour. Thankfully I soon realised the tour description I was hearing was wrong and was able to flag this, but it's one to look out for as it's really busy down there.”
