Coron: Super Ultimate 7 Destination with Lunch & Transfer

Traveling to Coron often means choosing between countless stunning spots, but the Coron: Super Ultimate 7 Destination Tour aims to pack the very best into one action-packed day. If you’re after a comprehensive, well-organized trip that hits the highlights—Kayangan Lake, Twin Lagoons, WWII shipwreck, and white sand beaches—this tour might be just what you’re looking for.

We love that this experience offers a balance of incredible scenery, engaging activities, and local flavor, all at a reasonable price. The inclusion of a buffet lunch and hotel transfers makes it a stress-free way to explore. On the downside, the packed schedule means you’ll need to keep pace, and some stops might feel rushed. But if you’re eager to see Coron’s top sights in one day, this tour is well-suited for travelers with a sense of adventure who aren’t afraid of a busy itinerary.

Key Points:

• All-in-one experience: Covers 7 major destinations in a single day
• Great value: Price includes lunch, transfers, guide, permits, and boat rides
• Scenic variety: From lakes and lagoons to shipwrecks and beaches
• Accessible hiking: Short, manageable hikes with well-maintained stairs
• Shared tour: Opportunity to meet travelers but less time at each site
• Weather dependent: Weather can impact the day’s flow or safety

What Makes This Tour Stand Out?

When you think about exploring Coron, it’s tempting to hop from one destination to another on your own, but doing it independently often means missing the logistics and insider tips that guided tours offer. This all-day, guided boat trip is designed for travelers who want a comprehensive snapshot of Coron’s most iconic spots without the hassle of planning each detail.

Two aspects we particularly appreciate are the well-organized itinerary and the inclusion of lunch and transfers. The latter removes the guesswork about how to get from one spot to another, especially in a place where transportation can be tricky. Plus, the tour’s cost of about $52 per person for a full-day experience feels quite reasonable given the number of destinations and inclusions.

However, a key consideration is the shared nature of the tour. Accommodating between 12 and 20 participants helps keep costs reasonable, but it also means your time at each stop might be limited. Even so, the itinerary allocates 1-2 hours per stop, giving you enough time to explore, take photos, and enjoy the surroundings without feeling completely rushed.

The Itinerary Breakdown

Pickup and Start

The tour begins with a hotel pickup in Coron, typically between 8:00 and 9:00 AM. Expect a friendly guide to greet you and a boat to whisk you across the water. The early start allows for maximum daylight and a full day of adventure.

Kayangan Lake

Often dubbed the clearest lake in the Philippines, Kayangan Lake is a highlight. The short hike to the viewpoint is manageable—just about 360 stairs in total, with only half being uphill. The stairs are well-maintained, and the route is accessible for most physically able travelers.

Once at the top, you’ll have a breathtaking panoramic view of the lake and surrounding limestone cliffs. It’s perfect for photos or simply soaking in the scenery. Afterward, you descend to enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing in the pristine waters. One reviewer notes that “the spots we’re taken to are STUNNING,” and the lake’s unique setting makes it worth the effort.

Twin Lagoons

Next up is the famous Twin Lagoons, where you can swim through the narrow passage connecting two lagoon chambers. This attraction offers a sense of adventure as you glide from one crystal-clear water to the other, surrounded by towering limestone formations. Visitors find this both scenic and fun, with one reviewer describing it as “an amazing day, so beautiful places, and an helpful crew.”

White Sand Beach & Lunch

Midday, you’ll stop at the White Sand Beach, not only a perfect spot to relax but also the designated area for the included buffet lunch. The food is quite good—grilled meats, fresh seafood, fruits, rice, and drinks—providing fuel for the afternoon activities. This stop is also an opportunity to bask in the sun or take more photos.

What the Reviews Say

Authentic traveler feedback provides valuable insight into what you can genuinely expect. One reviewer raves, “The activity was very well organized and well paced,” emphasizing that there’s ample time to swim, relax, and explore. They also appreciated the helpfulness of the crew, especially for those nervous about open water — “They put me at ease and made sure no one was left behind.”

Another traveler mentions the stunning views, though noting that “the views despite incredible are not as unique as pictured,” which is a good reminder to keep expectations realistic—beautiful, but with a touch of the usual tourist photography magic.

The food also earns praise, with one traveler noting that the team offered a delicious dessert at the end, and others mention the helpfulness and kindness of the crew. These aspects matter because a friendly, attentive crew can make a big difference in how relaxed and enjoyable your day is.

The Practical Side: What’s Included and What’s Not

The price of $52 covers boat rides, a guide, entrance fees, permits, lunch, shuttle transfers within Coron, and a cottage rental for the day. It’s a comprehensive package that delivers good value considering the number of attractions visited.

Extras like mask, snorkel, fins, aqua shoes, or a clear kayak cost extra, so if you’re serious about underwater photography or snorkeling, consider bringing or renting equipment beforehand. You might find that the additional costs for equipment (around PHP 200 per set) are well worth it for the enhanced experience.

Not included are other meals, water activities outside the itinerary, and personal expenses. You’re encouraged to bring cash, biodegradable sunscreen, and insect repellent, and be prepared for a busy, full day.

Who Will Enjoy This Tour?

This tour is a great choice for first-timers wanting a rundown of Coron’s highlights. It’s especially suited for travelers comfortable with a packed schedule and who enjoy a mix of sightseeing, swimming, and light hiking.

It’s not ideal for those with mobility challenges, as the hike to Kayangan Lake involves some stairs, and the activities are physically active. Also, strictly for travelers who don’t mind group tours, as this is a shared experience.

Overall, if you’re after value, convenience, and a memorable snapshot of Coron’s best, this tour hits the mark. The combination of stunning scenery, helpful guides, and tasty food makes for a satisfying day.
