Our Coron getaway is getting more excited. Yay! After visiting the town of Culion
and immense ourselves on its astounding past, we headed back to Tabing
Dagat Lodging House and Restaurant where our boat is docked. It is time to
explore another island from Palawan and it’ll be more of snorkeling and swimming
in the beach. Pass Island, where we had our lunch, is a 1 ½ hour boat ride from
Culion. As we
sail going to that island, the staffs already grilled our foods for the lunch
on our boat. What a perfect getaway, indeed! Sand on my toes, wind on my hair,
the smell of sumptuous grilled foods – squid, chicken, fish, pork liempo - on my nose and the beautiful
sighting, how I wish Mr. Sunshine is up on that day, too!
Everyone’s excited to jump off the boat and swim. Well, there’s more to explore in Pass Island. It is perfect for beach bumming, snorkeling and photo ops. I skipped snorkeling though because I took a nap on the hammock that covered with a shade of palm trees and did some photo session to test my new Xiaomi YiCam action camera, a gift from the boyfie. Pass Island has a crystal clear blue water, white and powdery sand, and less crowded. On the other part of the island, there’s a mangroves, and protected coral reefs. By the way, there’s also a pearl farm before reaching the picturesque and quaint Pass Island with a minimal fee of P200 per boat.
This island is called Pass Island simply because people just come and go. It’s like tourists and its visitors just passed by. Though, overnight stay is also allowed since there are available nipa huts but take note that there’s no electricity that’s why one have to bring portable lamp or whatever source of light. There’s also a small store where you can buy snacks but then it is advisable that you bring your own food. To those who will avail an island hopping package, food for lunch is already included as beach front tents with tables and chairs are available for only P100. Unlike others, Pass Island has a decent public toilet and bath with overflowing water.
So, if you’re going to visit Coron, Palawan in the near future and will do island hopping, please include Pass Island on your list. I’ll make sure that on my next visit, I definitely stay longer, stay in the hammock or have my tan while reading book with my favorite mango-banana shake on the side. Oh well, this is what I always envisioned on having an island life. Ha-ha.
The clock strikes at 3pm, we packed up and leave the beautiful island because leaving later than 3pm means conquering big waves which we wouldn’t want to happen. And oh, we had a side trip to Sangat Island and saw the shipwreck at the Coron Bay.
... and here are the photos captured by my new action camera, Xiaomi Yicam.
