Cruising & Snorkeling

OVERVIEW

Observe the wonders underwater by snorkeling in a brackish lake and in the ocean or simply enjoy a refreshing swim at both locales. After settling into an outrigger boat, you will head for Kayangan Lake, a crystal-clear body of water that steep limestone cliffs rim. To reach the lake, you must walk down a lengthy staircase, but it is well worth the effort. Snorkelers can expect to see needlefish and miniature barracudas and perhaps shrimp in the rocks along the lake bottom. The aquamarine water is also ideal for swimming, as it is typically as smooth as glass. In time, you will cruise to Siete Pecados, a marine park of seven islets teeming with colorful fish such as Moorish idols, triggerfish, Napoleon wrasses and pygmy seahorses. You will also have option of swimming near the outrigger or remaining on board and taking in the scenery. The view of Coron from the marine park is particularly memorable.
