Cell Phones ...

Globe Smart and international cell phones roaming will generally work in Coron but lines are limited. Cell-phone coverage began in this area as of March 2001.

Your friends can't easily or reliably call in to you, our best advice is to get them to send you a text message.

There are internet cafe's in coron, one has 12 computers on-line with a reasonably fast connection. You can check Yahoo mail and MSN Hotmail and others on their computers.

As at Jan 2005 there is not a GPRS signal in Coron Town but it is available at several locations on the way out to the wrecks from the dive boat if you have a Blackberry or Smart phone, hopefully GPRS will be available in town soon!
