The main thing to know about Coron is that it’s not really one island; instead,
it’s three islands—Coron Island, Manlawi Island and Nakabuang Island—that are
just a short boat ride apart. This hop combines two of these islands for an
unforgettable day trip. Here's how to do it First, spend some time on Coron
Island itself. Walk around, check out its unique architecture (it looks like
every building is made from wood), eat at one of its restaurants or grab drinks
at Kappiya Bar & Grill. Then head over to Manlawi Island by way of local
fishermen’s boats (the kind with outboard motors). You can either negotiate a
price beforehand or pay once you arrive at your destination.

El Nido, Philippines
Zala: Lunes 22 (el nido)
-Hostal: Outpost beach hostel. Muy bien. Aunque Frendz queda más en el centro de la ciudad y dónde hay los restaurantes y tal.
Win: lots of things to do. Beaches to explore.
Located on Palawan Island in southwest Philippines, El Nido is a tranquil beach
town that’s popular with travelers. The beach is often described as being
picturesque, especially when viewed from atop one of its numerous limestone rock
formations. If you want to maximize your island-hopping experience, I recommend
spending at least two nights here.

Port Barton, Philippines
Juliette; Coco Rico hostel
Sergi: Sábado 20 (port barton)
-Hostal: Coco Rico Hostel. Muy bien.
Domingo 21 (port barton)
-island tour desde port barton
-Hostal: Coco Rico Hostel. Muy bien.
The second most popular island hopping destination from El Nido, Port Barton is
a world apart from its famous neighbour. That’s not to say that there aren’t
some wonderful beaches and dive sites around – far from it – but it isn’t as
spoiled and on first glance appears less touristy than El Nido. The main town,
on its bay with an airport, bustles with local life and you can still see rows
of wooden boats lining its colourful marina.

Puerto Princesa, Philippines
Sergi:Jueves 18 (Noche en Puerto Princesa)
-Hostal: Guni Guni Hostel. Muy bien.
Viernes 19 (Noche en puerto princesa)

If you’re looking for a peaceful respite from city life, head to Puerto
Princesa. Surrounded by several surrounding islands and boasting natural scenery
that’s simply breathtaking, Puerto Princesa is filled with hidden gems that you
don’t want to miss. When in Puerto Princesa, check out...

Cebu City, Philippines
Zala: Martes 2 (Noche en Cebú)
-Hostal: N/A. No me acuerdo, no valía la pena.
-Nada que ver en Cebú, ciudad de paso
Win: swimming with Whales. It’s called oslob.
The most popular city in Cebu is known for its friendly people, distinct
landmarks and attractions, scuba diving sites, nature parks and perfect
year-round weather. This means you can visit pretty much any time of year
without sacrificing your experience. One of our favorites things to do when
visiting Cebu is to find a seaside bar with views of Banilad Cove or Boljoon
Beach, which are less than 10 minutes from one another by car.

Miércoles 10 (Noche en Oslob)

Oslob has long been known as the whale-shark capital of the Philippines. It
processes the most tourist swims with whale sharks in the entire country.
However, because the procedure at Oslob involves feeding the whale sharks and
can be intrusive to their environment it is definitely a contentious issue.
Having said that, there is still a reason to travel to Oslob aside from the
whale sharks. Without going into too much depth. The whale sharks are better off
than when they were being hunted. They are also better off now than 2 years ago
when the whale shark tourism was a circus. Oslob now has pretty strict rules and
while it is definitely not perfect it is getting better every year and the
sharks are not harassed or touched.. only fed. Sumilon island is a short boat
trip away and it is also a good base for your transfer to Bohol, the local way.
There are also several waterfalls in the area if you do stay more than one day
in Oslob such as Tumalog Falls.
