Where to ride the Manila to Coron Ferry
2Go Travel is the only ferry company that has a direct route from Manila to Coron. Board the vessel on the North Harbor Pier 4 in Tondo, Manila. Traffic in this part of the city can be intense, allot an extra hour or two to get to the port on time. Riding the ferry is not the fastest way to get to Coron with a travel time of 11 hours. Since it’s going to be a long trip, you will be assigned a bunk bed for the whole duration. But think of it this way, after a good night’s sleep, you’ll be waking up to Coron’s sunshine!
Come morning, you’ll be landing at Coron Port, which is 40 minutes away from Coron Airport. The port is only 10 minutes away from the town proper where most of the hotels and inns are. Pretty convenient, right?
