Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Malcapuya Island is the ultimate destination for those looking for soft sandy beaches, clear warm waters, all with a totally secluded appeal. This place has possibly the best long sandy beach in the Coron, with various private little beaches and coves tucked away around the island.

Stop 2

The island’s white sand beach is free from rocks and coral, with plenty of space for resort guests to share with tourists from the arriving tour boats. Visitors enjoy swimming in the waters just off shore because they are free from rocks and coral as well, which makes for excellent swimming conditions. Snorkeling is also possible, with many little fish in the shallows, but they can be territorial and even a bit nippy in the shallows. Swimming further out into deeper water will help snorkelers avoid them, but there are not many hard or soft corals to be seen at this location.

“Bulog” means bald, describing the shape of the mound that resembles that of a bald head. Snorkeling there is good if you get out far enough
