Shallow public beach stop with easy snorkeling near Coron.
CYC Beach is a small public beach near Coron Town with pale sand, mangroves, and shallow turquoise water. Most visits arrive by island-hopping boat for an easy swim or snorkel stop, with reef patches and small tropical fish just offshore. It works best as a relaxed beginner-friendly add-on rather than a dedicated scuba site, and the area can feel busy when tour boats overlap.
