    Breathtaking view! As always this is my favourite! Be ready to climb and wear slipper or aqua shoes -slippery when u climb. Ask someone or your guide to take good shots- long lines expected. Top tourist destination here in the Philippines!

    This crystal-clear lake is accessible by a steep 10-minute climb. 300+ stair-step up and down. After you reached the top of the first 150+ stair-step you will see this majestic view (Kayangan Viewdeck). You can see the islands and the docking station below. Then another 150+ stair-step down to get to the lake. It has also caves and viewpoints. It is dubbed as the cleanest lake in the Philippines.

    Definitely nice view from the waypoint half the way. The lake itself is okay. Just a lake in the hills :D Most of the beaches are more interesting and have nicer colors. Only did snorkeling and it was little clouded day.

    Such a breath taking view, a pure art of nature... Visitors have to travel across islands to get to this place and trek about 15 minutes up and down the hill to get to the lake... A rest area was made for picture taking halfway through the hike... The lake water looks so clear that you can see the rocks at the bottom but it is too deep in reality. Security is good that they are strictly implementing the use of life jackets when swimming in the lake...

    Beautiful place, people in palawan are very nice, very accommodating. They don't take advantage whether your a tourist or not. Foods are everywhere, very cheap, even the tricycle fare is also cheap.

    The final tour of the Tour A package is Kayangan Lake. It takes approximately 300 steps to reach their view deck, but it is well worth it because the panorama is breathtaking. There is also a cave nearby where you can take pictures. After that, you can go swimming or kayaking on the lake. Underwater, limestone formations can be spotted in the lake's swimming area.

    ♤The most FULFILLING travel yet to date probably because I was SOLO AND the place is just MAGICAL ♤Got there very early 6:30am so I had the place all to myself (I woke up the guards-some are asleep) and I did really take my time in appreciating its beauty :)

    The place is an overall attraction that includes a bit of stair climbing. 2 main attractions are the side photobooth on the first half of the trail while the lake is on the end. Lake itself is wonderful and is a must visit place. Good place to swim and snorkel. It was a bit crowded when we were there. I'd say that I have appreciated the entrance of the attraction due to the beautiful scenery and make sure not to lag behind the schedule so you don't inconvenience other tour mates. Also make sure to have a prepared pose on the side booth for photo and not to overstay on the lake just for others to enjoy as well.

    This lake was so beautiful and compared to all the photos we have seen online. I would recommend coming early and bring your own snorkel equipment and GoPro to capture all that is has to offer.

    This is that view deck from “Its more fun in the Philippines” campaign. You can expect that because of that, as early as 9am there is a long line of people to have their picture taken with that view. It is roughly 300-400 streps going up and down to the view deck and the lake from the docking area. So plan ahead, bring drinking water. Some days, there can be a lot of mosquitoes too. It is 300 pesos to enter, usually included in tours. There is now a gate on the entrance, two years ago it was open. Warm water lake, very clean. Also very deep, so it is advisable to bring your life jacket with you. This all started because 2018 there were two tipsy men filming themselves free diving the lake. Apparently they did not make it alive for whatever reason. Since then it has became mandatory to wear your life vest otherwise you will be refused to enter the premises.

    It’s the first stop of our ultimate tour. We’re so lucky that at least one stop with a sunny sky. Many people were waiting for taking photos at the peak view so we went to the lake first. The color of the lake is stunning beautiful, even there’s no fish under the lake. It started raining while we waited for taking pictures at the peak during 20-30 minutes.

    Before you get soaked, you’ll have to use those legs for a little climb. On top, a breathtaking view of the lake will surprise you. There’s usually a queue for tourists who want to take their photo with the lake as the background. For this reason, I highly advise going here early. This is part of the Super Ultimate Coron tour.

    Nice view! Not recommended for the elderly tho since you need to climb up and down the stairs to see this. There's a long line just to capture this view on top however you can just opt to swim immediately.

    Just a lake, beaches are more interesting. If you accompany elderly people. I bet most of them cannot go upstairs. But the view below was amazing and relaxing. Great for sight seeing. There are few food shops also

    The stunning scenery here is well worth the climb up a set of stairs. Following the staircase will lead you to a lake, underneath which lies a majestic natural landscape. Don't forget to capture it on video; replaying it later will still evoke a sense of awe. The warm lake water is not too salty, providing a serene spot to lie back, relax, and rejuvenate before you embark on your next adventure.

    This is the cleanest lake in the Philippines. Rock formations are also great below. If you are looking for a new relaxing place, put this in your bucket.

    It takes approximately 300 steps to reach their view deck, but the breathtaking view is totally worth it.

    Kayangan Lake was in my bucket list for my Coron trip. I have seen so many photos and videos/travel documentaries about it and was so excited to check it out for myself. There's about 600+ steps (half climbing and half descending). It's a bit crowded but there's plenty of room to swim. There's not a lot of fish or corals to see, its just all dark down there. The view is amazing though! And the brackish water is not that rough on the skin. There is an overlook where people line up to get photos. It's worth it for the snaps but there's no time to enjoy the view because of the crowds. I would have loved to stay there for a little longer and just take in the beauty.

    Worth the climb to the top! 300 something step. Depending on your tour guide’s re-ordering of your tour for that day, we tried the super ultimate tour (the two lakes are included), this cld be the 2nd or 1st stop. This is wider than Barracuda, a clean lake for just chiling, swimming, snorkeling (rock formation down under) life jacket a must, 5K fine for taking it off.

    Need to take a few steps up to the lake, but it was worth it 👌 super amazing view.

  • 5/5 Travel with D. 11 months ago on Google
    I think this was the best view I saw in the Philippines it is truly breathtaking and there is not too many strips only 100 and something

  • 5/5 Alexander Ezekile C. 11 months ago on Google
    You need to climb to get to the viewdeck and to get to the lake. The beauty of nature is magnificent, the water there is warm and lot of tourists may come and go.

  • 4/5 Edward H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great view, clear water, lots of mosquitoes, not many fish, good for a swim. Very crowded if you're in a group. I would suggest a private tour goes there early

  • 5/5 Sophia011 1 year ago on Google
    The final stop for our tour. A little stair climbing leading to the view point but its worth it! I can’t get enough of it just love the view!!

  • 5/5 John Dave Andrew S. 1 year ago on Google
    Since Kayangan is made of 70% freshwater, it is ideal for swimming. The water is inviting. It’s warm in some parts and cold in others.

  • 5/5 Simona U. 2 years ago on Google
