It’s hard to tell what you’re plunging into when diving in Coron: water or dream.

Coron has been regarded as a diver’s dream because of its many astonishing dive sites. Among these are the sunken Japanese ships, which Forbes Traveler Magazine listed as one of the top-10 best scuba diving spots in the world.

Besides wreck exploring, various exciting adventures await travelers in Coron. Its amazing depths are home to a colorful synergy of fishes and corals, making its waters ideal for snorkeling. If the adrenaline rush kicks up a notch, hiking up and leaping off boulders before finally splashing like cannonballs into the water comes forth as a tempting option.

After the wet and wild exploits, vacationers can retire to a hammock in Malacapuya Island, wait for the night to set in, and spend the rest of the hours unwinding under the stars.

Using his GoPro HERO4 Silver and Sony Alpha 5100 16-50mm kit, Mikoy Martinez was able to capture all these wonderful experiences, including snapshots of his sojourn in Culion, an erstwhile leper colony now brimming with historical worth. Click on the video and carry on to Coron!
