Just 5 km from Coron
town, at the end of the little village called "Makinit", two
small and one large naturally occurring salt water springs on the shorefront,
somehow bubbling from the mountainside despite their proximity to the
sea.
During the latter part of World War II, battalions of battle weary Japanese
troops retreating from the Malaysian front made camp in this sitio to
mend their wounds and rest for a few days. The healthy volcanic water
here is in the range of 35 degrees Celsius.
The "Makinit Hot Springs" can be reached either by our boat
or by tricycle in just 20 minutes for only Pesos 35,00 per person (US$
0,70). The caretaker of the hot springs, who keeps everything nice and
tidy, will ask a small entrance fee of Pesos 30,00 from you.
The "Makinit Hot Springs" are perfect for unwinding at the
end of a long day or simply to enjoy a "hot soak".
