Coron remains to be a
top destinations in the Philippines. Among the crowd's favorite are the
Kayangan lake,
Ciete Pecados, Maquinit hot spring, and the
Twin Lagoon. Did you know there's so much to explore in Coron? One is staying in an island called
Dimakya.
When an invitation came to visit Coron Palawan, my heart jumped to joy and excitement because it was my
first time in Coron.
I fell in love in its
white, fine, powdery sand that is comparable to my favorite powdered milk candy. The water that's crystal clear I could almost see the corals and limestone. We've been traveling and going to different
beaches in the Philippines but never did I tried snorkeling the right way. Perhaps the beautiful sea creatures, corals and limestone are enough to boost my confidence and forget my fear of the water. Truly, it was a priceless experience.
Setting Foot On Coron:
Last Monday, Manila was experiencing heavy rains brought by typhoon Egay. We were looking forward to visiting Coron on Saturday morning so I was sad it needed to be rescheduled. By Thursday, our friend from TDLCI confirmed we're booked for an 8am flight to Busuanga on Saturday. I immediately went to my room and started packing my things.
At
NAIA terminal 3, we were relaxed waiting for
PAL Express bound to Busuanga. I don't know if we're just excited but we arrived in the airport very early. Oftentimes we're rushing to the check-in counters. 😁
Warm Welcome at Club Paradise Palawan
We arrived few minutes earlier at
Busuanga airport. Three friendly staff of
Club Paradise Palawan were waiting outside the arrival gates. You can easily spot them holding the Club Paradise banner. My first welcome treat were lovely smiles and warm greetings. Oh, I love it when we were greeted, you know you're in for a wonderful vacation. Besides, Filipinos are known to be very hospitable.
Around the airport, you would see hills, green fields and cows. I noticed there were few trees on the mountains, I was told it's because the type of soil they have in Coron. The place was very quiet. We passed by small communities, children walking on their way to school. I did not noticed any other mode of transportation like tricycle or jeepney, only vans owned by most hotels and resorts.

Upon arrival at the island, a beautiful lady offered cold towels to freshen our tired muscles. Not too far, another staff served a refreshing cold cucumber drink. We felt the warm welcome from the hotel manager, Mr.
Joegil Escobar.

How To Get To Club Paradise
From Manila it took us about fifty-five minutes via
PAL Express to Busuanga. About twenty minutes van ride from
Francisco Reyes airport to
De Calachiao port, an exclusive port for
Club Paradise Resort and El Rio resort. Completing our land, air and sea transfers, last but not the least and the final ride before you reach this paradise is taking a
private speed boat or
ferry (courtesy of Club Paradise Resort) going to
Dimakya Island where
Club Paradise Palawan is situated.
