Coron Boat Tours

Home » Palawan » Boat Stops » Coron Boat Tours

Do you want to stay away from the crowds and enjoy the pristine islands for yourselves?

If you prefer a private tour only for your group, just contact us and we will arrange a boat for you. Your own boat, your own time and your own islands. Or you can join one of our multi-day tours to El Nido (Sibaltan), hitting the most popular Coron spots on the way. We can also organise group or private tours in El Nido.

The prices in the table below includes private boat, licensed tour guide, lunch, snorkeling gears, entrance fees and pick up from hotel by tricycle (within coron town only). If you want to be picked up by a van from the Busuanga airport or within coron town, we could have it arranged with you for an additional cost.

If you want to do some fun diving during your private boat tour in Coron, we could have that arranged as well. Most of our customers would do one fun dive in Barracuda Lake and after that, they will continue island hopping in 2 to 3 islands around Coron only.

TAKE NOTE: Prices may change especially during peak and high season.

This Tripadvisor page shows the most popular destinations around Coron, our favourite suggestions being Kayangan Lake and Twin Lagoons, quite close to one another.

At some of the places, like Twin Lagoons, the local caretaker grills fresh fish and rice. Or the boat crew can cook you up the same for 200p/meal. If instead you buy vegetables from the public market (the loading area for most of the boats), the crew can probably cook that for you for free, but a little tip would be nice.

Take note: As of December 2019, the coast guards in Coron made a bizarre rule that all boats is required to check out with them first before leaving. Meaning no boats can leave earlier than 8 am. This was not the case before but our boatmen have to follow this rule. With regards to this, do not worry. We can still help you avoid the crowd by bringing you to less crowded places first. All joiner tours do then same route everyday and they usually start on the nearest island in their itinerary.

In this list you can choose the general, bold text popular package tours (each one requires a full day), or customize your tour by choosing seven individual locations  (maximum seven locations per day).

The best experience of my life!!I wanted to surprise my girlfriend with a special engagement in beautiful El Nido!!Melasel arranged everything for me and had so many great suggestions and knowledge of how to make this a magical day! I was super worried because it is difficult to arrange such an important event when you live on the other side of the world! But Mel was amazing and understood exactly what I wanted! And went out of her way to accommodate all my requests!She even had a clever story to tell my girlfriend to cover the photographer being with us all day!On the day the weather was very rainy with many showers. Mel and Rene were in constant contact with me with plan B and even contacted our hotel to discuss options of hosting the proposal there. Completely above and beyond what I paid for.Luckily in the end the weather gave us a small window and Mel set everything up beautifully on a sand bar floating in the middle of crystal clear waters surrounded by limestone islands with stunning rocky formations.Island Hopping in the Philippines somehow peered into my brain and delivered a perfect replica of the proposal I had in my head.It was simply perfect down to the smallest detail! Thank you so much, I cannot recommend you guys enough!!

I give 5 stars because they actually helped me to arrange the tour to Balabac in last minute. However, because the money wired through the local bank in my country took time to be processed, so i missed the boat due to peak season as many people paid before my money was received by the tour guide.As most of people usually feel, once your money has been transferred out to someone you do not know, you probably frustrated that your money would not be able to be refunded.But not in my experience. I dont need to be worry, the owner refunded me the money he has received (minus the bank fees). He promised to refund me and he did it. It was around 18.700 Pesos.So, eventhough i didn't manage to go with the tour, but i am really satisfied with their legitimate and great business practice. Hopefully, people will try their services and not worry about their legit business!Thanks a lot!

The most wonderful experience from booking to beach! Karel and Mel were so fast and responsive to my very last minute trip over the holidays. We booked a private boat for two and could not have been happier with our four day trip! We didn’t think about anything other than snorkeling the entire time. Linda, our captain, cooked wonderful meals and took us to totally empty beautiful beaches. We loved staying the night in Pical especially! Wonderful to experience the Philippines this way! Will come back again and would recommend to anyone!

We booked the 3 day 2 night expedition, from Coron to Sibaltan.First of all the booking part was really simple. I organized this trip to the Philippines last minute for my family (my parents and my uncles) but Karel answered all my questions very quickly and really made everything easier for me. It was an incredible experience. Albert, our tour leader, is a wonderful guy, always smiling and ready to help us. They assisted us in everything and really took care of making everything go smoothly. The accommodation on the islands is as spartan as you expect but the location of each hut alone is worth the trip. The wonder of nature was then added to the goodness of cuisine. It's really difficult to argue how you can cook all that goodness on a boat.If you are looking for an authentic experience, in contact with nature, off the beaten track, this company's private expedition is certainly for you.

What an unforgettable experience! We did a two night (3 day) island hopping tour from Sibaltan to Coron. Everything was so well organized and the boat crew were amazing and really made sure we had a great time. The accommodation was rustic, but added to the authentic experience of the Philippines. Karel always responded to any queries we had promptly. Our boatman, Albert, was the most amazing chef and we enjoyed every meal. The crew taught the kids how to fish with a line which was their highlight of the trip. They took us to the most unbelievable snorkelling spots along the way. Would highly recommend this trip.

This is a must to do!!Super ultimate tour is the best with Kayangan and barracuda lake, twin lagoons (my favorite), coral garden (blue fabulous coral) were the best. It’s really worth it to pay for private tour (3500 to 4000 PHP). You will also have to pay for entrance fees (150 to 200PHP by location) and eventually shopping at the market - must do (count 300 for 2 for fish, pork, fruits and vegetables, water).

I was looking for a personalized excursion to the stunning Bacuit Gulf.Based on the comments, I contacted Mel.Very responsive, very efficient and perfect organization.The on-board staff were very friendly and very helpful.And I'm not even talking about the meal on board...a marvel.In all fairness, this excursion will remain an excellent memory and I cannot recommend Mel and his team highly enough.A big thank-you.

This tour went well above all our expectations! I couldn't recommend this enough! The boat crew, captain and tour guide were nothing but amazing, everyone was so kind, helpful and friendly. The crew knew the best spots to visit that weren't overcrowded with tourists, 3 times we were lucky enough to have whole islands to ourselves! It was my partner's birthday while away and everything went above and beyond, bonfire, cake, birthday card, singing and celebrating with us.If you love camping this is definitely a tout you should do, it has been the highlight of our trip!!

Coron is the best place i have ever seen.. picturesque. Beautiful. Peaceful
We booked a 4 days/3 nights private boat trip from Coron to Sibaltan. The organization went very well from the beginning, the owner answered to all my questions, and we were able to choose which islands to visit and where to sleep. The first night we slept in a bungalow in Banana Island, the second we camped in Araw beach and the last we slept in a seafront bungalow builded on a tree in Pical on Iloc Island.The islands in that area are the most beautiful islands I have ever seen, with clear water, lots of coral reef and fishes to see, white sand and almost deserted. The crew was very friendly and polite and they organize every single meal and for camping they give you a tent which was just perfect! This was our highlight in our 2 weeks in the Philippines and I wish I had booked a longer trip. A private trip gives you the freedom to decide where and when to go.

Great service!

We took a private tour and it was great to avoid the crowds that way.

  1. Hello, how much would it be for a private tour for 5 pax with an infant (9 months old)? We’re interested on going to Kayangan Lake, Coral Garden, Twin Lagoon, Barracuda Lake, Siete Pecados if possible. I would also like to have lunch in one of the island/beach.

    • Hello Ram,

      When in January do you want to do the trip? That’s possible. If you want, you can fill in the form in this link
      https://www.islandhoppinginthephilippines.com/boat-tours-a/?a=20

      Choose coron only and choose open tour.

      Once you’ve submitted the form, your trip details will be shown in the table. Anyone who registered can contact you or you can contact them directly to join your group.

      Or if you want, you can do the advance payment already. It’ll be 6,500pesos for 4pax, private boat and a tour guide.

      Please make a 65$ advance payment processing fee by choosing 65 units of $1 each at:
      https://www.islandhoppinginthephilippines.com/palawan/booking/

      The remaining balance, 3,250 pesos should be paid by cash on the day of the tour to your boatman.

      REMEMBER: This does not include entrance fees and lunch. If you want lunch, it’s 200pesos/head or if you want, your boatman could bring you to the wet market where you can choose your food and they could cook it for free. 🙂

      It’s better to have a private boat because you can leave whenever you want and not in a rush. No one will blow you a whistle saying it’s time to leave.

      To avoid tourists, I would suggest leaving around 7:30am or 8am. Most tours start at 9am or 9:30am.

      Kind regards,
      Mel
