==== Overview  ====
+
{{Green|Add here any background, cruising, and brief historical comments.}}
-
 
+
-
The relatively protected anchorage of Corong Corong is becoming popular in the North East monsoon as a stop for yachts provisioning to cruise the islands of the Bacuit Bay area. In the South East monsoon anchorage can be found off El Nido itself. This small village is developing quickly into a tourist area but is still fairly unspoilt and has clear, clean water in both anchorages. The dramatic backdrop of&nbsp; offshore limestone islands makes this a nice stop and some yachts stay for months.
