share private boat or bus and safe money
travel better
sharing is caring – safe money and meet other travellers by sharing a boat, taxi, van or bus.
The best way to truly enjoy Coron’s majestic islands is with a private boat charter, and the most comfortable way to navigate Busuanga is with a private van.
While these options offer maximum comfort and flexibility, they often come with a higher price tag, especially for solo travelers or couples.
That’s why we’re launching “Sharing-is-Caring”—a simple way to split the costs and meet fellow travelers!
🏝️ 1. Private Island Hopping Charters
Instead of joining crowded group tours, you can now find other adventurers to share the cost of a high-quality private charter boat:
| Detail | Cost / Information |
| Total Charter Cost | PHP 7,000 (Covers boat, experienced Captain, and certified Tour Guide) |
| Maximum Group Size | 6 people |
| Your Savings | The PHP 7,000 cost is split equally amongst the group (e.g., just PHP 1,167 per person for a group of six! in the ideal case) |
| Extra Costs | Entrance fees, drinks, and food are calculated and paid per person. |
How to Sign Up: Don’t be shy! Place your name on our sharing calendar. The friendly team at the Coron Mermaids will actively work to connect you with other interested travelers and secure your boat charter. Follow this link :

🚐 2. Busuanga Island Van Transfers
The same principle applies to comfortable land travel. Find co-travelers to save money on the popular route from Coron Town to Ocam Ocam (via Concepcion, Salvacion, and Busuanga).
Sharing a private van transfer drastically reduces the per-person cost:
| Group Size | Cost per Person | Your Savings |
| 2 Travelers | PHP 1,500 | (Standard Rate) |
| 3+ Travelers | PHP 1,200 | Save PHP 300 per person! |
| 4+ Travelers | PHP 1,000 | Maximum Savings! |
