Coron Palawan Snorkeling & Island Hopping Tour (Private)

Outstanding day! We had our own boat and guide to see all the sites. All were beautiful but we really enjoyed Balinsasayaw Road which had outstanding coral and clams, Kayangan Lake (beautiful view point), Barracuda Lake (cool rock formation under water, and Twin Lagoon (fun kayak spot). Our boat captain and assistant were outstanding! Our guide was outstanding as well. This was a special day we will never forget. A couple feedback items. Initially, the local company didn’t have our reservation the night before which was worrying but they figured it out and supplied a great tour! Also, we knew kayak rentals were not included but didn’t know how expensive they would be (1500 to 1700 pesos). It left me with little money to tip the boat crew and our guide. So, please communicate rough costs to guests so they come with the right money.

Captain and tour guides were very helpful and informative about each stop on the tour. The group enjoyed the tour.

Amazing experience exploring the many beautiful locations that Coron has to offer. This was our favourite tour during our honeymoon in Palawan. Lake Kayangan and Barracuda were both really cool to see with massive drop offs to the depths in some spots, beside sheer limestone cliffs. The water at the lakes was so clear as well even with the amount of people that were swimming in it. The reefs and lagoons were so pretty as well, with a huge range of fish and beautiful coral to see when snorkelling. When renting a kayak, I would recommend going with a non-clear kayak as you could hardly see through the bottom of it and it was a bit of a rip off. They cooked us a big lunch which was quite yummy. We couldn't finish it all, but they eat the leftovers for their lunch, so nothing is going to waste. Our guide was super nice and very accommodating during our tour, there was no strict time limit at locations, and we had a bit more freedom being a private tour. would definitely recommend.

This was the perfect way to get more accustomed to snorkelling without having to worry about crowds or others. The crew was awesome and the lunch meal was wonderful. They were flexible to focus on our personal priorities and skip some things we weren’t into. It also allowed us to go at our own pace and enjoy the reefs without feeling rushed. Make sure you bring a dry bag for your phones just in case in case.

Great tour, tour guide and crew were excellent took us to all the best spots and timed it well so there weren't big crowds

We book the private tour as we didn’t want the hustle and bustle with loads of people in the boat. The trip was very well planned from the moment we were collected from the hotel. The guide and two crew explained everything from the moment we were onboard. We didn’t want to spend an hour in the locations and the guide an crew were happy for us to continue on the tour. The lunch provided was very nice cooked by our crew and served on a little lsland, where we had time to relax. We would total recommend this tour.

Upon the fair seas of Coron, I did partake in a voyage of snorkeling and island wandering, where joy did rise as freely as the tide. Beneath the crystal waves, coral reefs did gleam like hidden treasure, each hue more wondrous than the last, as though “all the world’s a stage,” and nature played her finest scene. We passed from isle to isle, each one a vision untouched, stirring the soul with quiet marvel and delight. Yet above all stood the grace of Twin Lagoon, where still waters lay cradled in stone, a sight so rare it seemed “too full o’ the milk of human kindness” for this world. There, in that sacred calm, time itself did falter, and wonder held dominion over every breath I took. At noon, upon a gentle shore, we were served a meal both rich and honest, whose taste did echo the land’s true spirit, most pleasing to both heart and tongue. Thus I proclaim it a once-in-a-lifetime delight, whose memory shall endure, so long as “men can breathe or eyes can see.”

A private island hopping tour in Coron doesn’t feel like a typical tour—it unfolds more like a slow, effortless drift through some of the most surreal landscapes you’ll ever see. At Twin Lagoon, everything softens. You slip through a narrow opening between towering limestone cliffs and suddenly the world goes quiet. The water shifts from warm to cool as you move, a subtle, almost dreamlike sensation that makes you want to just float and stay there longer than planned. Light reflects off the rock walls, the surface barely ripples, and for a moment it feels completely untouched. Then there’s Barracuda Lake—a place that feels entirely different, but just as captivating. The short walk in builds a bit of anticipation, but once you enter the water, it’s striking in a quieter, more mysterious way. Instead of coral, you’re surrounded by sharp limestone formations beneath unbelievably clear water. As you descend, the temperature shifts dramatically, wrapping around you in layers—it’s unexpected, almost surreal, and unlike any typical snorkeling spot. What ties it all together is the pace of a private tour. There’s no rush, no pressure to move on. You linger where it feels right, take in each place fully, and let the day unfold naturally. It’s not just about seeing these locations—it’s about experiencing them in a way that actually stays with you. It’s the kind of day that doesn’t try too hard to impress, but ends up doing exactly that anyway.

This was my first tour in Coron with my wife and we had an amazing experience! It was our first time scuba diving and kayaking. Our private tour guide was wonderful, he helped instruct us and really made us feel safe. He also took some great photos and videos of us as well. Highly recommend this Tour, everything was communicated well and went smoothly.
