  • Coron Vs El Nido this video gives you the differences between them and why you should not miss out on Coron when you plan your Philippine travels.
    Coron seems to be missed by the majority this is probably why it is still so beautiful and pure but head there fast as it wont be long before it starts to turn into El Nido.

    I love Coron, I think it's going to be my 3rd trip going there this month in the same year haha. Additional info about the diving in Coron, most of the scuba divers dive there to see the WWII Shipwrecks. Ever since I saw one of the shipwrecks there, I couldn't get enough (Irako, Kogyo Maru, Morazan Maru, Olympia Maru, also the small ones like East Tangat Gunboat and Skeleton Wreck). So if you're an avid diver like me, try diving into one of the ships when you go back to Coron! :D

    I've been in Puerto last year and in El Nido just a week ago. And i would say that its both great place. But if you are looking for peace and calmness El Nido is way beyond. You should try El Nido Cove its 20-30 minutes drive away from the town but the place is awesome. Great services, foods and accommodation and fyi don't assume the internet is great. Just love the place! Next trip will be in Coron! (y) Way to go guys!

    Hey Scotty! Big thanks for an awesome video! How many days would you recommend to stay on Coron and El Nido? I'm gonna be in Manila in the end of July. I arrive on Friday at 13:25 and I have my flight back home on Thursday early morning. So in total I have 5 full days. I'm thinking to visit Coron or El Nido. Or maybe it makes sense to stay 2 days in Coron and then take a fast boat to El Nido and come back to Manila from there? Thank you for your video! Keep up the good work!

  • @genetosphere9285
    @genetosphere9285 5 лет назад +1

    Just spent a week each in Coron and El Nido. Coron is less touristed and slightly less expensive, but El Nido has more spectacular island geology. There is more to do in El Nido, and the local beaches are good. Coron does not have good local beaches that are close to town. Diving is good in both places, but probably a little better in Coron, especially for wrecks.

    Hi man! Thank you very very much for your video. We have just booked our flight from Italy to Manila and I was booking the flight from Manila to El Nido. But after your video I think we are going to change our plans and go to Coron! We would like to see something more than a turistic place, we would like to see their culture and the real Philipphines.
    Now I'm searching for a cheap accomodation, can you reccomend us wich part of the island is better? In the south part of the island in front of Uson Island? Thank you very much, we will write you how was it!!

    • @ScottyDoes

    @emmanuelmorales3628 6 лет назад

    I have been to El Nido and Coron, for me there’s no comparison at all except the transportation. You can fly direct to Coron, while in El Nido, you need to use Puerto Princessa and travel 6 hrs by land BUT you have a chance to see UNDERGROUND RIVER. I do recommend 6 days and 4 days for El Nido & Coron, respectively, AND BOOK THRU WEBSITES BEFORE GOING TO THESE PLACES.. VERY SAFE AND FRIENDLY PEOPLES and/or TOURIST GUIDES. Use life vest & beach shoes if necessary. it’s addicting.

    Good comparison. The internet is really the "kill joy" in the country. The internet in general is very slow int he Philippines. Even in Manila if you subscribe to any of the Mobile Data the telecoms are offering they all suck. If you are in a decent hotel, you can get a decent WiFI from there, but of course, you are a tourist and you want to be online while you are out and about, that's why you wanna go for the mobile data. Unfortunately, they all suck.4G is not everywhere even in the capital Manila.

But the lady at the front desk said, "Sir, there's nothing wrong with the network connection but I'll send Fred to buy a LOAD!!!" I said, "What Load?" Apparently, they buy load to keep their network working. Hahaha ...next if goes out again I'll just talk to Fred!

Telstra and other intl companies are eyeing us, but these 2 local giants are againts the idea of having to compete with them. So we Filipinos are now suffering from high cost and bad services from these 2.

    I would suggest you need to see a bit more of the Philippines before suggesting one place is 'one of the best places in the philippines'. You may be correct but having visited only 4(?) places, you're not really in a position to decide yet.

      +Andrew Mack I agree with what you are saying but it's the best place that I have been to here in the Philippines.
