Coron is a bit of a hassle to get to, I have been thinking of going for some time, but cannot be bothered to get the seaplane flight or slum it on the superferry from Manila. My schedule always conspires against me. I prefer dive sites that I can reach by road from Manila.
I went to Coron last October and had such a great time I decided to run my own trip there this year...in October. There is a link to the thread in one of the early posts to this topic.
As for getting there it's no big deal and certainally isn't a hassle. Fly out of Manilla on a 30 odd seater (we went on a Dash7) and then it's a 1 hr ride in a Jeepnee to the Coron township and port. Jump on the boat and 45mins later you are at Sangat Island sipping a nice cold coconut and deciding which wreck you are going to dive that afternoon.
I still have a couple of spots available if anyone is interested as I over booked in case there was anyone else who wanted to join us.
