The Best Beach in Coron – Beach 91

Beach 91 is one of the best beaches in Coron and is a must visit while in the island. 

Coron is a destination in the Philippines widely famous for its majestic limestone rocks, crystal clear lakes, stunning lagoons, and some of the best snorkeling and diving spots in the world. But not many talks about the beautiful beaches in Coron, in particular Beach 91. When island hopping in Coron, you will discover exotic and secluded islands with pristine aquamarine waters, full of powdery soft white sands.

Beach 91 is a usual stop for lunch when doing island hopping tours in Coron. Out of my several visits to Coron in the past ten years, I always look forward to our lunch pit stop in Beach 91 during our island hopping expeditions. 

The stunning Beach 91 has it all: powdery white sands, crystal clear waters, and a stunning backdrop of limestone cliffs. When you arrive in Beach 91, you will see a large sign along with coastal wooden huts with a connecting bridge, where your tour guides prepare and set your delicious lunch. 

I particularly enjoy coming to Beach 91 because apart from the delicious lunch, I take my time to relax and have a swim before heading to our next stop on our island hopping tour in Coron.

Hop Hostel (Budget)

I stayed in Hop Hostel a few years ago with a group of friends from Europe, and I must say I was taken by surprise on how much I like this place – A LOT. 

Hop Hostel is undoubtedly one of the top ten hostels I’ve stayed in since I started backpacking Europe and Asia during and after my college years. Upon arriving, you’ll be immediately impressed by the facade and exterior of the hostel. It’s all painted in white with a touch of blue hues, resembling many buildings you see in Greece!

The rooms itself were immaculate. The interiors have plenty of space to store your luggage without feeling like you are on top of your other roommates. All of the beds in the room are very comfortable, as well. They are wide and cushy and will ensure you get a good night’s sleep after a day of island hopping. Also, the rooms are well-kept and cleaned religiously by the staff. 

But the hostel’s main selling point is their rooftop bar, where you can catch Coron’s legendary sunsets with a drink in your hand. The overall atmosphere is excellent, with a DJ and the social vibe of the bar!
