An adventure with friends of similar level of energy, curiousity, and wanderlust. It was in Coron Island of Palawan in the Philippines with Aleks, Bien, and Dottie.
Upon arrival, we went to the port to rent a boat for the two-day island hopping. Then we climbed the Tapyas Hill to get a sunset view of the town and the islands.
It was a breathtaking climb of 750+ steps. On top of the tower stood the giant cross, made of steel and illuminated with light bulbs all around it, and a cellular tower, standing side by side.
Sunset view could be a familiar face but to observe it on top of Coron was completely outstanding.
Insider Tip: When you're coming from Coron town proper, don't mind those tricycle drivers offering you a ride to Tapyas Viewdeck. It is just a walking distance and a little climb up the starting point of the ladder on the way up the hill. I'm sure you can bear the strain and ascent is a perfect warm up.
Island Hopping - Day 1
Island hopping is the main event, so booking a boat at a bargain, at the same time choosing the best crew cum cooks, is vital for an enjoyable sea tours. Our best experience was with Kuya Jun (contact number +63 919 170 7116).

It was indeed a foursome team building... reinvigorating, relaxing, revitalizing, and reconnecting with nature.
