Location

Popototan Island, Busuanga
Northern Palawan

From Coron town, a two-hour scenic ride in a motorized banca will take you to Coral Bay Resort. Located on Popotan Island, the resort emerges after a boat journey that brings you close to limestone cliffs, uninhabited island and extensive pearl farms.

More than a resort, Coral Bay is a marine conservation area. We offer you the peace and serenity of an island hide-away. Here you have many opportunities to experience nature's beauty in its coral reefs, sandy beaches and luxuriant mangroves.

Coral Bay is a marine resource conservation area. Home to a wide diversity of marine life, the coral reef fronting the resort displays vibrant colors. There are occassional sightings of dugong and manta rays, or even dolphins.
