How to Get There
✈️ Book a flight to Coron (Basuanga Airport) via Cebu Pacific
🚌 Ride a van going to your accommodation - I booked my van transfer with Klook. Book here. - The standard price is P300 as of this writing.
🏠 Accommodation
I booked a room at Divine Castle Travelers Inn. Book here.
They have a great view (see the 3rd photo on the banner of Day 1)
I chose this place coz it's just a few steps from Mount Tapyas, San Agustin and Real streets where you can find great restaurants, and Mcdo if you miss the fast food. 😂
