I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS THE PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 (Coron Palawan is NOT what I expected)

  • I had not expected the island of Coron to be the most beautiful place I've ever been. In fact, I can't believe I didn't know this is what The Philippines looks like! Watch my reaction to Palawan as every single site blows me away in this Coron travel vlog. On our boat tour around Coron Palawan we visited:
    Maquinit Hot Spring
    Twin Lagoon
    Coral Garden
    CYC Beach
    Balinsasayaw Beach
    Skeleton Wreck
    Barracuda Lake
    Kayangan Lake & View Deck
    Coron is full of must-see destinations, and I'm so grateful we got to see so many of the best things to do in Palawan!

    I'm watching from Anaheim, California. On March 24th my wife, mother in law and I will be going to the Philippines to see her side of the family in Meycauayan, Bulacan which is north of Manila. We will be going to our house in Silang, Cavite which is about a 15 minute drive from there to Tagaytay. It's very beautiful there and you can see the second most active volcano in the Philippines which is the Taal Volcano. I got so lucky to be in Silang at the house on January 12, 2020 when Taal erupted. What a amazing sight seeing Mother Nature at work. All of the volcanic earthquakes might not have been as exciting especially with all of the shaking happening. I can't wait to be back in the Philippines again to see family and friends. Excited to see more new places while we are there.

      Steve i retired at 52 yrs old. Move to philippines 2009. I live in Baliwag Bulacan presently but have lived all over the philippines.
      Its a great place. The people very friendly ...culturally...and so pretty. Palawan it great
      I started coming here in 2002 and spent about 9 weeks a year till 2009.
      I have no interest in going back to wisconsin but i do miss the snow.
      Well have fun you will be so glad you came here.

    Claire, that's your song?!!! I'm an instant fan!
    I immediately drawn to this background song and wondered who's the singer and of course, eager to hear the whole song. Didn't expect at the end of the video that it's actually your original!
    Just wow!
    That tour you just made was really tiring. That's why a lot of returnees or those who prefer to have a relaxing vacation rent a boat just for themselves, just enjoying, chillaxing surrounded with those magnificent rock formations. The heavens have favored Ph with a lot of breathtaking wonders.

    I love your vlogs cause of the music! it makes it so much better!. oh wow you're only there for that long? that's waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy too short when visiting the philippines! it's too short to get the full experience. plus philippines is a vibe, it's so much different compared to visiting the other south east asian countries, well they have similarities, but just the way you could interact with the locals makes the experience so much better. interactions with the people compared to other nations are unmatched... just the fact that the people are all smiles and friendly.

    Palawan was actually named "The Most Desirable Island in the World" by UK-based travel magazine Wanderlust for 2022. (It was also Travel + Leisure’s "Best Island in the World in 2020.)
    13:05 - That was Banana-Q, very popular street food here.
    What a very short trip though. Thought you'd stay longer, not just in Palawan but in PH. You've probably left by now as i know these vlogs are usually shot days or weeks in advance. Anyway, hope you come visit PH again in the future. It's more fun in the Philippines! 🇵🇭
