Why rent from us

Already there before them

  • A boat only for you

    You decide how long to stay at each attraction and personalise the route.

  • A Tagbanua captain

    The people guiding you are the people who own the ancestral domain, and can explain its places, culture and traditions.

  • Before and after the crowds

    You already sleep in the middle of the attractions: leave at 7:00, be back before the day-trippers' boats reach the lakes at 9:00.

  • A proper lunch

    Even on full days you can return for lunch, a fresh-water shower and a shaded table — or have it packed from the menu.

  • Faster boats

    Yamaha and Suzuki engines from 30 to 250 hp, considerably quicker than the traditional bangkas from town.

  • Gear included

    Fuel, crew, life jackets, masks and fins, towels and a cooler of drinking water.

Starting from Coron Town?

Be at Kayangan at seven on arrival day

If you would rather start your excursion at 7:00 am on the day you arrive, pay only ₱650 towards the extra boat fuel — the private van transfer is on the house and your luggage waits at the houseboat.
