It is fascinating how easy is swimming in this fresh water lake. Get away from the tourists and find quiet corners to absorb the magic of this incredible lake. Kayangan is one of the sacred sites of the Tagbuana Tribe who are the guardians of the lake and the island

Be prepared to climb up the stairs, but its worth the challenge. Nothing beats the clarity of the lake and the colour of the skies reflect upon the lake. Breath taking.

Barely any fish. But the view on top of the rock stairs was worth it! Be careful when you climb though! But don't give up! My kids climmed it! And also be careful of the wooden slots on the side of the lake my little girl's legs slid through it 3 times! You see, before you see the lake, your... More

Went to Coron w/ my fiancee in 2010 for a 3days 2 nights vacation. On our second day, first stop on our island tour is the Kayangan lake, said to be the cleanest lake in the Philippines (Time Magazine), about 15-20mins boat ride from the town of Coron. With an entrance fee of Php100 (at the time of visit), you... More

So much fun but it was a bit crowded with tourists. Don't expect to see any sea life also. It's so refreshing on a hot day.

Great place and not yet overran by tourist. It is very remote and still so beautiful. Amazing wildlike and the most beautiful azul blue waters I have ever seen. You can see almost a football field away under water.

I love Busuanga but you'll soon realize that it is quite an expensive place to stay. everywhere you go (even if you did not set foot on an island like the skeleton wreck), you still have to pay P100 per person.
