Taking
a ship to Coron from Manila or other parts of Palawan is an interesting
and inexpensive way for you to travel, specially if you have heavy luggage.
You can easily make contact with Filipinos (or better: Filipinos will
make contact with you). You don´t have to be afraid of criminals
and gangsters, but worldwide wherever you go there are always "black
sheep" so please take care of your belongings and don´t leave
them unattended.
If you have never taken a boat in the Philippines or in other not so
rich countries you should know that some ships can be very uncomfortable
to travel with. The best shiping lines you can take to Coron are the "Negros
Navigation" and the "WG&A Superferry" from Manila or
from Puerto Princesa. Please visit the homepage below for more information.
If you are planning to travel to Coron from El Nido or to El Nido from
Coron, you can take the Atienza Shipping Line once a week.
