Coron or Cebu comes first on both weekly sailings to Palawan's capital. Friday's 17:30 calls at Coron on Saturday morning and is the quicker of the two, while Monday's 17:00 goes the long way round by Cebu and spends two nights aboard. Both land late in the evening, so arrange the first night's bed before sailing.
The return leaves Puerto Princesa before dawn on either of its two days, which is worth bearing in mind when booking the last night's stay.
