Malcapuya Island  After putting up Part I of the Coron, Palawan adventure, now I am obliged to finish Part II and conclude the whole experience. Our first Island Tour was arranged by Coron Galeri, but we seemed to be looking for something that wasn't there. So our next Island tour, we asked the GLC attendant if they have a boat contact and he gave us Ms. Joy. She and family owned a motorized banca used for island hopping.
