The government has empolyed people to safeguard this place to preserve its natural beauty.. The corals are very pretty and fish are bountiful. This area is yet to be developed to be promoted as a great tourist attraction.

The Twin lagoon is a rock formation, dividing 2 lagoons.. during the low tide, a small opening will be seen where you can cross to the other side, so during high tides, it is not advisable to go as it is not safe to cross to the other side. Upon entering the other side, your eyes can feast on the spectacular view of colorful plants and several schools of fish.

Cayangan lake is quite a long way from Club Paradise, it took us 1hr boat ride to Busuanga mainland then another 1hr from Busuanga to Coron town,and from Coron town 15mins boatride to Cayangan lake.But it's worth the trip, the scenery is just amazingly beautiful!The water is so refreshing and very inviting!But hey, you have to climb up to see this picturesque cliff and another 60 steps to get to Cayangan lake and back,it's really a challenge!

Kayangan lake is located in the Island of Coron.. It is said to be the cleanest lake in the Philippines. It takes about 15mins from the port of Coron to get there. Upon arrival, you have to take a hike on a mountain trail to get to the lake.. It may be a little steep for some but the climb is worth it :)
