Select participants and date
The morning opens like a blank page: the pump of the outboard, the town’s low roofs shrinking as you pull away, and a horizon that feels purpose-built for exploration. On the Coron Super Ultimate Tour, small banca boats slice through water the color of crushed glass, visiting Kayangan Lake, Barracuda Lake, Twin Lagoon, a WWII skeleton wreck and several reef gardens in a single full day. It’s a compact crash course in Palawan’s limestone islands—craggy cliffs that rise from the sea and lagoons that hold their own strange, layered worlds.
