Palawan: Philippines Last Frontier

I recently visited Singapore and the Philippines, with my wife and daughter, for vacation. We celebrated the holidays with family, relatives and friends. We also got the chance to visit Coron, Palawan to see what they say is the Philippines Last Frontier.

I was surprised by the sheer beauty of the place. I’ve never seen anything like it. The blue-green water looks so clean. The mountains and rock formations are breathtaking. The islands (more than 60 of them) and its beaches are in pristine condition.

We snorkeled around a couple of islands and shipwrecks, and we saw the most beautiful coral reefs garden. We got the chance to feed and see the colorful fishes. We were even lucky to see a sea turtle.

We swam through the cleanest lake in Asia, the Kayangan Lake and the Twin Lagoon, and dipped through a 100% salt water hot springs.

The town is very friendly to tourists. There are several nice hotels, resorts, and restaurants. The town still needs some development, such as roads and reliable electricity. But who cares. You only stay in town to sleep. You mostly explore the place by going to the different islands.

The place is simply paradise.
