Thrilling and Exciting Activities
I swam with the fishes for a delightful hour. I finally got the chance to fulfill a lifelong fantasy when I dove headfirst into the sea to swim with the fishes.
Diver’s Delight
I think these are the marine species seen on regular basis. This is the most enjoyable activity I’ve ever experienced in Coron. I’m joining in the island’s perfect sea life.
When we were here, we rented 3 kayaks for the family with a life vest on board.
The kayaking trip was fantastic. Paddling a kayak around and taking in the breathtaking scenery is a great way to get a feel for the area.
I’m a sporty traveler; very active to dive, to paddle, to sail, float and swim. I can still hold my breath underwater for almost 2 minutes and do tricks to keep going forward..
Placid afternoon swimming

It is possible to see marine life. The hidden neck sea turtles (Testudines) and barracuda are regulars at this location.
Kayangan Lake
A place of breathtaking beauty and tranquility. A popular tourist attraction and one among the island of Coron’s most beautiful spots. Its tranquility and the clarity of its water have made it famous. Deep into the lake, you can see corals and fish. I’ve already taken too many images here to stop now. It’s one of my favorite lakes, and we’ll get to Barracuda Lake in a while.
The Beauty of Kayangan Lake
Following above the lake, a cluster of limestone provides visitors with panoramic views fantastically varied rock formations.
Only two of Coron Island’s thirteen lakes are accessible to visitors. Kayangan Lake and Barracuda Lake are two of my favorite places in the world.
The ascent to the observation deck and the descent to the lake’s entrance both take about fifteen to twenty minutes by stairs. Like the Barracuda lake, these stunning cliffs of limestone rise sharply from the water and drop straight down into the depths below.

Pretty cool summer break, a beautiful paradise getaway..
Smith Beach
A fantastic afternoon with crystal clear water.
Most beautiful turquoise water of Smith Beach. It is also known for its calm waters.
Las Islas De Coral
The soothing nature of turquoise seas. Sitting back and watching kingfishers dive headfirst at a set pace to grab fish is a great way to unwind.
Kayangan Cave

Sunset Beach
I just love the clarity of the water and whiteness of the sand.
A rewarding feeling of being relaxed and well-pleased.
Barracuda Lake
One of the most well-known lakes worldwide. The entrance of Barracuda Lake is reached after a 20-minute ascent. As you make your way through, the towering cliffs’ mysterious and perilous structures become increasingly apparent at each turn.
Climbing the stairs Barracuda Lake. It was a challenging trek, truly adventurous can climb the stairs up there.
The best diving conditions and most popular dive spots may both be found at Barracuda Lake. This is the most frequented island for scuba divers in all of Coron.
Boulder, an impressive rockfall threatening to fall over. Collapsed in landslide, large blocks of rocks larger than an average car.
Barracuda Lake and Kayangan Lake are only two of the many stunning natural wonders that Coron has to offer.
