Coron limestone was formed 260 million years ago as a coral reef along the length of Southeast Asia and was part of the China Continental Crust. It was later rafted to its present location north of Palawan by tectonic movements.
They were uplifted by tectonism some 30 million years ago and then extensively eroded by waves and monsoon rains to create its present unique “karst” topography. These limestone crops rise dramatically as cathedral-like formations more 400 meters above sea level.
We have about the same weather experience as these guys , the reason we have to back track leave the idea of El Nido, just too much rain.
*Trip to Philippines 2014 -Luzon, Bohol, Palawan
Brilliant video of El Nido and Coron !
Had been to Palawan / El Nido adventure 23 yrs ago,
would have been nice to see it again in best weather like that of these guys, but it was a gamble of the weather for us on July and August:
*2014 Great video El Nido, Tao Expédition, Coron
But most of all I thank the Lord for the opportunity to see these places again and everything was fine with us not the least seeing mg father and spent some time with him.

Lo spettacolare scenario delle Alpi fa da sfondo ad uno dei più belli scorci ferroviari d'Italia. A coronare una già ben composta scenografia, una doppia di E405 è da poco partita dalla stazione di Brennero con il TEC monocliente LKW Walter diretto a Verona Quadrante Europa

Panaderias are neighborhood bakeries found across the Philippines, offering fresh, affordable breads daily. A beloved staple is pandesal, soft bread rolls often eaten for breakfast. These family-run shops serve as community hubs, where locals gather each morning for warm bread and conversation. With open counters and simple setups, panaderias reflect the warmth and traditions of Filipino daily life.
I wish we had these in the US.
One of the most beautiful islands I have ever been. :D
Partially between Busuanga and Culion islands, Coron Island faces the Sulu Sea and forms the eastern side of Coron Bay. It is about 20 kilometres (12 mi) long from north to south, and 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) at its widest point.
It is a wedge-shaped mountainous island, dominated by steep cliffs and Karst rock formations made of Permian limestone of Jurassic origin that comprises about 70% of its area. Another 25% is rolling hills, while only 5% is relatively flat. There are 11 lakes nestled in the rugged terrain, of which 3 have underground connections to the sea. There are a few mangroves in coastal areas. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coron_Island
Being on a boat always take me back to the most beautiful islands back home. Have a wonderful day, my dear Flickr friends!
