I am not a beach person. I even have a love < hate
relationship with the sun. I remember that my nose used to bleed every time I
get too exposed to the sun’s harsh rays. Yes, I was a sensitive kid back then.
So when R invited me to go to Coron with him and his friends who I do not know
then, I wasn’t really thrilled. But I changed my mind when I saw Coron’s
beauty.
Hello, Coron!
We were in Coron for 3 days and 2 nights and R’s friend who
is based in Coron did all the arrangements for us. We had a tour guide during
our whole stay and all we had to do is ride the van, tricycle or boat and
follow him.
On our first day, we kept it light and went to Maquinit Hot Springs.
I would have not thought of Coron having hot springs as the
first few things that come to mind whenever I hear Coron are rock formations,
corals, snorkeling, beaches and giraffes. (Okay, giraffes seem a bit out of
place but there is a place in Coron where you could feed them!)
We got to the hot springs a bit past 4 p.m.. We were
supposed to be there earlier after our supposed Mount Tapyas climb. But thanks
to the ever reliable Cebu Pacific, we were behind schedule by a couple of
hours. We opted to delay the hike till our last day in the island.
