Took the same boat for the malcapuya and the other two island tour. The sea-journey took 1.5 hour. The weather was very Sunny.
Malcapuya had a long stretch of Crystal-white sand beach, which the locals liked to compare with those in boracay. The water was very clear, but not many fish and coral.
Had lunch there at 12 noon and moved on the Banana island. The continental shelf was teemed with fish and coral - outdid all the other islands they had visited.
After an hour they moved on to Buloh island. Before they docked, the wind getting stronger and the sea was very rough. After getting down from the boat, the rained came. They did not swim much, just took some pictures when the weather cleared up.
At 3pm, they departed the island heading for twin lagoon, which was a bonus for the trip; originally not included, but managed to convinced Sony to do them a favor.
Just about half an hour after, they stopped in the middle of the sea to rescue a fishermen's boat because its engine broke down. Towing the boat behind slowed down the speed.
And soon enough they headed into a storm, with strong wind and heavy rain; soaking all through
The chill factor coupled with the rain had everyone curled up, shivering and trembling in damming cold elements.
When they were near the twin lagoon, they left the bangka and hopped onto a bamboo raft, to go thru the arched door from one lagoon to another. It was a very unique site; astonishingly beautiful and serenely peaceful.
They stayed for an hour and headed back to land.
The golden hour suddenly dawned on them...the setting sun painted the sky golden, orange, crimson and red. It was the first sunset scene he had in coron, and it was the most spectacular one for that.
They reached shore at 6.30pm and had dinner at an eating shop on the seaside; friedrice and veggie and lemon chicken.
