On the second day of our stay at the Island, Club Paradise prepared a whole day activity for us. From the many packages they offer, we decided to pick the Coron Tours as it is highly suggested by most of the staff. After having a sumptuous breakfast at Ocean Restaurant, we borrowed some water gears from Club Paradise then headed on to our destination. It felt like an international tour because most of the people we were with in the boat were foreigners.

Waking up at two in the afternoon is a regular thing for me. It’s been a year since I’ve change my sleeping routine because of work. It was a Sunday, I got up and cooked late lunch. While I was sitting at my table, I remembered something. A memory that seems like a dream. Six hours ago (as we were writing this article), I was waving goodbye to the very accommodating crew of Club Paradise in Palawan. It was surreal and it felt like the whole experience was just a dream.

We arrived at Busuanga around 9:45am. It was a 45 minute or less flight. Coron is located at the northern part of Palawan, quite near Manila. Busuanga is the only airport located in the island of Coron. Everything in the airport is being done manually, from weighing, checking and even unloading and reloading of bags. From the airport, we headed towards our a picturesque stretch of cattle farms, a river, the ocean then to our accommodation at Club Paradise in Palawan. We wanted a hassle free stay so this was the perfect choice. From the airport, a van is already waiting for us outside. This I think is the only means of transportation you could use on your way to the island.

The task, to shop clothes at Tutuban Night market with a budget of 1,000 pesos for a complete outfit to be worn by our assigned model. Did I win? Find out and continue reading.
