The names above are used by JY Tours in Coron. SO WHICH TOURS SHOULD YOU TAKE? All the tours in Coronare very different. Which tour you should do depends depends on how many days you have in Coron and what you're looking for - to Relax on a Beach, Snorkel or deal with Crowds in the Lagoons. Most tours are pretty crowded now that Coron is no longer a hidden gem. We recommend combining Shared tours with a Private Tour (if you have enough time).
