Twin Lagoon was the first of many gems we discovered hidden in Palawan’s dreamy Coron Bay. Limestone cliffs dotted the perfectly blue waters of the Calamian archipelago where we explored secret lagoons, deserted beaches and watery caverns. The beauty of the region was surreal, and with so many little nooks in the rocky outcrops, I could only imagine what other spectacular treasures sat waiting to be discovered. – Text from: http://www.bucketlistbums.com/twin-lagoon-the-philippines/

It is the only known saltwater hot spring in the Philippines and probably the only one in Asia. The hot spring is just about 25 minutes from the town center and is located between a hill and the blue sea whose shores are lined with mangrove trees and floating bamboo cottages. The therapeutic water in these hot springs will surely relax and soothe your tired body after a long, strenuous day. – Text from: http://filipinas-beauty.blogspot.com/2013/02/coron-palawan.html
