PARKS & MEMORIALS

Trams, otherwise known as trolleys or streetcars, are glorious urban artifacts that ferried people across different locations within busy town centers beginning at the turn of the century. The inhabitants of Corregidor Island during its heyday made use of trams, so touring the island in a similar fashion will surely take you back in time. In addition to that, accredited tour guides will accompany you on your journey, providing historical context but also serving as ambassadors to that world-famous Filipino hospitality.

Tunnels may, from the outset, seem like the stuff of noir cinema or suspense literature, but the Malinta Tunnel is a different ball game. Its place in the annals of world history is indelible, having served first as bomb-proof storage, then as personal quarters, and finally as makeshift hospital for injured troops during World War II. Nowadays, it is the site of a lights-and-sounds presentation crafted by the late, great Lamberto Avellana, National Artist for Film. A tour of the individual laterals which served different functions during the war is also on offer.

While it may be argued that the island, in itself, can be treated as one living, breathing exhibition, Corregidor Island is not lacking in terms of well-curated exhibitions of photos, art, and war artifacts housed in separate museums. Swing by the Pacific War Memorial Museum for stunning military ephemera, and visit the Filipino Heroes Memorial for war-inspired paintings from various artists. It will be worth your while, and it can also serve as requisite breather in between more physical in-island activities.

Want to take it all in at your own pace? Then biking around the island is the choice for you. Arrange for group packages and get considerable discounts. Pedal across the glorious Mile-Long Barracks, whiz past Battery Hearn, or race your friends to South Beach in style. Not only is biking great for your cardiovascular health, it can also afford you views you would not otherwise see while on a guided tour.

Whether your area budding lensman or a pro-level camera fiend, Corregidor Island provides you that much-needed shift in subject matter. Forget the usual beaches and the stale shoebox-architecture sensibilities of the metro. With plenty of natural light to go around and some of the most breathtaking views the country has to offer, The Rock is a true-blue photographer’s haven, with its diverse flora and fauna, early modern architecture, and unique wartime ephemera. Book a group visit today.

FLORA & FAUNA

Beyond war, beyond history, Corregidor Island remains a slice of paradise as evidenced by its multifarious flora and fauna. The well-maintained former camp and base is teeming with fruit-bearing trees. After a spell of rain, the roads are carpeted in yellow blooms. Monkeys and geckos are constants in the hilly borders. When the skies clear out, an array of birds dot the atmosphere, among them white-collared kingfishers, zebra doves, Asian glossy starlings, and Eurasian tree sparrows.

Corregidor Island is flanked by at least three beaches in its expansive territory. Its shores practically extend to burgeoning beach destinations such as Morong and Bagac, with its more closed-off borders affording the island’s visitors less constraints and more privacy. Your best bet would be South Beach, which is a mere five-minute walk away from the docking bay. Swim, go kayaking, or ride a raft. You can even barbecue in one of the cabanas nearby.

PARKS AND MEMORIALS

The Pacific War Memorial, a well-curated museum of war memorabilia, key artillery, and inspired pieces of mid-century Americana, stands as an astounding reminder not just of wartime strife but of the culture that sprang because of it. From enlisted men’s uniforms to military correspondence, from shooters of varying shapes and sizes to media clippings of a bygone time, this hub is just one of several stops one can make to be transported back to time. Other attractions include the art gallery inside the Filipino Heroes Memorial, as well as the serene Japanese Garden of Peace, which, apart from serving as a veritable graveyard for the Japanese fallen, also gives visitors an unrivaled view of the fabled Caballo Island across Corregidor.

ABOUT THE ISLAND

corregidor day tour 2022

HISTORICAL SITE

Corregidor Island, “one of the country’s last military bastions,” is an island off Southwestern Luzon that was fortified with coastal artillery by the Americans to defend Manila from Japanese attacks during the Second World War. While camped in The Rock, the Americans also built what may be described as a self-contained community.

corregidor day tour 2022

The expansive island is not just a haven for history buffs. Those looking to commune with nature will definitely be stoked with its dynamic ecosystem and generous array of flora and fauna. From fruit-bearing trees to flowers to an impressive assemblage of monkeys, geckos, and uncommon birds, Corregidor Island is a veritable local Eden indeed.

corregidor day tour 2022

Apart from the celebrated guided tram tours around the island, those pining to break a sweat or simply shoot the breeze with loved ones will not be disappointed. Swim at South Beach, go kayaking, fight off waves aboard a raft. Or, for the more chill, go biking and take selfies along the majestic Mile-Long Barracks. The Rock is ready to roll with you.

Corregidor Island Visitors Guide

This brief guide to Corregidor Island will help you plan your trip. It contains information on what to do, eat, and drink as well as the must-see spots and the best hotels.

ABOUT SEE & DO EAT & DRINK STAY BUDGET ADVICE

Travel Insurance

Located at the entrance of Manila Bay, Corregidor Island is just 48 kilometers west of Manila and one-hour away via ferry.  Given its location, Corregidor Island, along with neighboring islands including El Fraille Island, Caballo Island, and Carabao Island, has been fortified to serve as harbor defenses of Manila Bay and Manila during World War II.

Corregidor Island played an important role in Philippine history as it became an American military reservation, a temporary location of Philippine Government where Manuel L. Quezon was inaugurated as president, and the last to surrender to the Japanese troops in 1942.  Filipino and American forces recaptured the island after almost three years.

Before the American Colonial period, Corregidor was also used as a signal outpost to warn Manila of approaching enemies and as a station for customs inspection under Spanish rule.  It is also how the island got its name since Corregidor comes from the Spanish word corregir which means “to correct”.  Isla del Corregidor literally translates to Island of the Corrector taking into consideration the Spanish customs system.

Nowadays, Corregidor Island serves as a historic monument and a tourist destination where tourists can see various military installations and buildings that bear witness to the war that ravaged many lives of not only Filipinos and Americans but Japanese soldiers as well.

Best Time to Visit

It’s best to visit the Philippines during the dry season .  Dry season in the Philippines spans from November through April .  These are the summer months in this country.

Be aware that temperatures and humidity levels are particularly high in April and May .

The best time to be a beach bum and explore the islands is from March to May.

TIP:  This guide recommends that booking for Corregidor Island summer trips should be done as early as possible, at least a month before your travel dates, since resorts get fully booked early.

The period from June to October is the rainy (wet) season and is best avoided due to the high possibility of typhoons. The typhoons can not only be destructive, but most tours and activities are cancelled under such circumstances.  Transportation via plane and boat is also seriously impacted as well.  This happens frequently so beware!

This guide recommends traveling to Corregidor Island in April-May or in November-December , just before and just after the rainy season. This will likely bring fewer crowds, yet pleasant weather, and is also a great time to score a travel deal.

SEE & DO

The following is your guide to places to see and activities to enjoy while on Corregidor Island.

1 | Pacific War Memorial Museum

The Pacific War Memorial was erected by the US Government in 1968 to remember Filipino and American soldiers who lost their lives defending the country and the Pacific during the war.  The structure is a rotunda with an oculus where light during daylight hours falls on the altar located directly under the said oculus.  The museum is a treasure trove of items such as old photographs, money, identification cards, and diaries as well as weapons and uniforms used during the war.  There are also statues of soldiers and a bust of General Douglas McArthur, the leader of the troop during that time.

Behind the museum is the Eternal Flame of Freedom, a 12-meter high Corten steel structure with lights powered by solar energy.  The structure symbolizes eternal freedom as well as commemorates the Filipino and American war heroes.

2 | Malinta Tunnel

Built by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Malinta Tunnel is a tunnel complex that was used as a bomb-proof storage, personnel bunker, and 1,000-bed hospital during the American era.  It was the headquarters of McArthur and the USAFFE as well as the seat of the Commonwealth Government of the Philippines under President Manuel L. Quezon and Vice President Sergio Osmeña.

Presently, the tunnel is being used as the venue of an audio-visual presentation by Lamberto V. Avellana, the first National Artist of the Philippines for Film.  The presentation features the events that happened during World War II including the reluctant evacuation of McArthur and President Quezon to Mindanao .

3 | Ruins of Mile-Long Barracks

Although it measures less than a mile, it is commonly referred to as the Mile-long Barracks as the combined length of the structure from first to third floor is equivalent to a mile.  It is said to be the world’s longest military and accommodated 8,000 soldiers at the time.

The barracks was built as hurricane-proof however it was severely damaged during the war and what remains is the skeleton of the building that has seen how Filipino and American forces fought for freedom.

4 | Filipino Heroes Memorial

Located at the tail end of Corregidor Island is the Filipino Heroes Memorial, a 6,000-meter complex which features 14 murals chronicling the major Philippine battles from 15th century up to the present day.  The memorial was designed by Francisco Mañosa and the murals were carved by Manuel Casas.  The complex was inaugurated in 1992 making it the recent addition to several historic attractions on the island.

5 | Japanese Garden of Peace

Funded by the Japan Government, the Japanese Garden of Peace is dedicated to all the soldiers killed during the war.  It is also located at the tail end of the island and features markers with Japanese inscriptions, prayer area, shrines, and a pavilion containing photographs and other memorabilias.  Anti-aircraft guns line the edge of the hill and a Buddha monument towers over them.

Despite the Japanese being the ones who attacked and captured the island, the memorial is not only to honor those who sacrificed their lives but also to symbolize the friendship between Japan and the Philippines.

6 | Corregidor Lighthouse

The historic lighthouse of Corregidor Island was constructed and first lit in 1853 during the Spanish era.  Together with the one in Caballos Island, Corregidor Island lighthouse was the second oldest lighthouse in the Philippines next to the lighthouse at the mouth of Pasig River.  The lighthouse stands on the highest point of the island and measures 42 feet from the base, hence the effective height of 693 feet above sea level.

The lighthouse was heavily damaged during the fight against the Japanese and was rebuilt in 1950 using the remains from the previous structure.  The lighthouse has been running on solar power since the 1990s.

The view deck at the top of the island is a great spot to see the island and the areas surrounding it.  At the base is a souvenir shop selling shirts, old paper bills, and other memorabilias.

7 | Old guns and mortars

Remains of guns, mortars, and other weapons used during the war can still be seen in various parts of the island up to this day.  These weapons have been preserved and presently serve as tourist attractions of the island apart from being reminders of what it took to achieve freedom and peace we are enjoying today.

8 | Nearby destinations

Most tours to Corregidor Island depart from Manila but you can also sail to the island from Mariveles, Bataan which is approximately 10 kilometers away.

NOTE: The Battle of Corregidor anniversary occurs annually in Corregidor Island every 6th of May.

Suggested Budget

Use the chart below to get an idea of how much to budget daily.  Actual amounts will depend on YOUR travel style. Keep in mind these are daily averages … some days you’ll spend more, some days you’ll spend less. Prices are in USD.

Travel Costs

Accommodation.

A bed in a  hostel  dorm costs from 350 PHP ($7 USD), but smaller dorms can cost from 500 PHP ($10 USD).  For a private double, prices start around 700 PHP ($14 USD).

Most  budget hotels  begin at 700 PHP ($14 USD) per night for a double room and usually include free wifi and breakfast.  For  a three-star hotel , prices begin around 1,400 PHP ($28 USD) per night.  AirBnB is also widespread throughout the country, with private rooms starting from as little as 500 PHP ($10 USD) per night.  For entire apartments, expect to pay at least 1,400 PHP ($28 USD) per night.

Resorts and luxury accommodations  vary greatly from 1,400 PHP ($28 USD) to 5,000+ PHP ($100+ USD).  However, there are some really nice resorts and luxury accommodations which are surprisingly affordable.

We use and recommend booking online to save money using Booking.com ,  HostelWorld ,  Agoda , and  Expedia . 

Local food is extremely cheap, with street food costing under 50 PHP ($1USD).  For an inexpensive meal at a local restaurant, prices start around 100 PHP ($2 USD).  For a meal at a mid-range restaurant with drinks and table service, expect to pay from 200 PHP ($4 USD).  Knowing that their target customers are primarily tourists, Western food venues can be pricey compared to Filipino food.  Also, some of the ingredients need to be imported, which contributes to the higher cost. Western food (burgers, pizza, pasta, etc.) is much more expensive but is still relatively affordable at around 200 PHP ($4 USD) for a meal and drink.

Fast food like McDonalds will cost around 200 PHP ($4 USD).  A beer at the bar will cost around 50-100 PHP ($1–2 USD).

A week’s worth of groceries will cost between 300-600 PHP ($6-12 USD) per person.  However, food in this country is so inexpensive, and kitchens & refrigerators are hard to come by, I don’t recommend cooking your meals here since there is plenty of delicious street food to eat at very cheap prices. You won’t make it as good as they do and the food is too delicious to miss!

Transportation

There are many modes of transportation available in the Philippines and each varies greatly. 

Public Transportation is cheap.  Bus services on the islands are inexpensive.  Local buses (called jeepneys) are the most common type of transportation in towns and cities. The fare is usually between 15-25 PHP ($.20–.50 USD).

On islands without a bus system, a taxi or tricycle is the only form of transport with fares starting at 50-500 PHP ($1-$10) USD for short trips. 

Taxis are everywhere, and they’re very cheap.  Most fares shouldn’t cost you more than 500 PHP ($10 USD) around town.  

To get between islands, you’ll need to take a boat or to fly.  There are ferries that connect the island together since they aren’t too far apart but, generally speaking, flights are the most realistic option. 

Flights between islands usually cost about 2,000-3500 PHP ($40-70 USD).  However, this isn’t the cheapest way to travel.  It’s only recommended if you have limited time. 

We recommend booking online to save money using: WayAway or Expedia .

Attractions & Activities

Most attractions and activities in the Philippines are pretty cheap. Most attractions throughout the area are FREE to enter, though some of the more well known and popular ones cost 5-100 PHP ($.10-$2 USD) to enter. 

Depending on the activity, most day tours only cost around 1,000-1,500 PHP ($20-30 USD), oftentimes less.  You have more bargaining power if you go with a group. If you are expecting to do some climbing, remember to pack some warm layers. It gets cold at the top!  

Other activities such as Island Hopping, scuba diving, helmet diving, swimming with whale sharks, jungle trekking, canyoning, ATVs, jet skis, wakeboarding, cruises, parasailing, horseback riding, cultural experiences, and tours can cost as much as 1,250-5,000+ PHP ($25-100+ USD).

The Philippines is one of the least expensive places to learn how to scuba dive. Learning to scuba dive usually costs about 15,000-20,000 PHP ($300-400 USD), but often includes FREE accommodation for the duration of the course, which lasts three or four days.

When traveling to Corregidor, make sure to book your tour in advance to secure a slot as they are limited.

Tips & Hacks

The following are our Top 10 Tips when visiting this destination in the Philippines:

  • Be aware that a tourist VISA is only 30 days. You can extend it upon arrival, or within the first 30 days, for an additional 30 days for a fee of approximately 3,000 pesos.
  • Don’t buy into the fear factor. The Philippines has an unjustified reputation of being a dangerous place. It’s true there are security guards everywhere, but that is to deter theft.
  • Manila is NOT the Philippines. Get outside of the cities to see the real Philippines.
  • Don’t over plan. Boats, buses, and even airplane schedules are notoriously unreliable. Be flexible.
  • Check the weather. The weather varies greatly throughout the Philippines daily.
  • Typhoons can have a huge impact on your plans. Account for this when planning your trip.
  • It’s not cool to raise your voice or show outward frustration in public.
  • Be polite at all times. Realize that your country’s sense of humor may be different from Filipino humor and take this into account when interacting with Filipinos and while in public places.
  • Things move at a slower pace. Accept it … don’t get frustrated … but do account for it.
  • Don’t drink the tap water… but stay hydrated! Save money by buying large bottles (6-10 liters) of water and using it to fill your water bottle or hydration bladder in your backpack.

Money Matters

The Philippines has its own currency called the Philippine Peso. Banks, ATMs, and money-changers can be found on the island. If you are exploring the neighboring islands or provinces, make sure to bring enough cash that will last until the next time you get to an ATM or bank since most tours, transportation, and budget accommodations only accept cash.

Health & Safety

While overall the Philippines is a safe country to visit, as is Corregidor Island, you need to use common sense just as you would in any country, especially when traveling, and in a city, town, or area you are unfamiliar with.

Consult your hotel or resort front desk as they are more likely to give you reliable information than a random stranger on the street. Be careful when approaching strangers and selective about who you approach. Always pay attention to your gut feeling and follow it.

Staying Connected

You need to have a local-based SIM card in order to stay connected when in the Philippines. Network giants such as Globe and Smart have SIM cards you can use to make calls, send text messages, and also to connect to the Internet. A SIM card costs around 50 PHP ($1 USD) and usually comes with a FREE load worth 50 PHP ($1 USD). You can buy a card containing a code you can enter on your phone to replenish your load or buy an electronic load that is available almost anywhere in the city.

While you may not have problems with signal strength when in the city, it is not always the case when on islands or in remote areas of a province.  So when arranging for transportation pick up, say when renting a boat to take you to and pick you up from the island, it would be best that you make it clear what time you need to be picked up before the boatman leaves.

Things to Remember

This guide recommends to take note of the following while traveling on Corregidor Island or in the Philippines in general.

There is a nationwide ban which prohibits smoking in public places including indoors, the streets, on sidewalks, in restaurants , and on public transportation, requiring smokers to use designated smoking areas.  Selling tobacco to and purchasing from or for minors is also prohibited. Violators are subject to fines (up to 5,000 PHP | $100 USD) and even 4 months in prison.

The minimum legal drinking age is 18.  Alcohol such as beer and hard drinks can easily be bought in grocery and convenience stores.  The most common alcoholic beverage is beer, generally served cold.  Local alcoholic drinks include tuba (coconut wine which is usually very strong) and potent moonshine-like clear liquors made from sugar or fruit.  Imported beer, wine, and name brand hard alcohol are available but expensive.

Drugs are illegal in the Philippines.  Don’t use, buy, or sell any non-prescription drugs while in the Philippines … not even marijuana.  It is considered an especially heinous crime to buy from, for, or sell drugs to children.  The penalties are severe … up to and including death.

Public nudity is illegal in the Philippines and is not tolerated.  Most locals consider it offensive.  There are laws which prohibit provocative and erotic clothing and swimwear, therefore carefully consider your clothings and swimwear choices to make certain they are not too revealing.

Foreigners & Expats

If you are not a Filipino citizen, remember that you are a guest when visiting this country … be certain to act accordingly.  Respect the people, their customs, and the environment and wlidlife. You can be deported and banned … so behave … but have fun and enjoy all that this wonderful destination has to offer.

CORREGIDOR DAY TOUR: 12 Historic Sites to Visit

CORREGIDOR DAY TOUR: 12 Historic Sites to Visit

By continuing to read this article, you agree to double check with the authorities or other concerned entities for the latest updates.

They were in Manila for business. Saritha was from Bahrain and Scott from the United States. How I ended up in their company was the result of a friend’s blackmail spirited persuasion. My friend Grace wanted to show them around as it was their first time in Manila. With Scott serving in the military in the past, Corregidor was an easy pick. But Grace thought that me tagging along would make the trip more insightful. Silly her, it was my first time in Corregidor, too!

The tranvia is the most common form of transportation in Corregidor.

I have lived in Manila for almost a decade now, but I had never left footprints on Corregidor Island. It was one of those plans that I often overlooked because of proximity. (I always had an excuse along the lines of I-can-visit-it-anytime-anyway.) It just won’t happen. But with a friend constantly bugging me, it finally did.

Corregidor was officially called Fort Mills during the American era but was also commonly referred to as “The Rock” for its terrain and fortifications, and “Gibraltar of the East” for its resemblance to Mediterranean Sea’s peninsular fortress. Strategically located at the mouth of Manila Bay, it is the biggest of the heavily fortified islands that make up the harbor defenses of the capital.

Corregidor Island and its position in Manila Bay. Alright, I'll say it. It looks like a sperm cell.

It played a pivotal role during the Pacific War, with its fall signaling Japanese victory and the start of their occupation of the Philippines (1942-45). We all know how horrible that turned out to be.

The most popular option (but not exactly the most budget-friendly) of exploring Corregidor is the day tour offered by Sun Cruises .

Tourists snapping away at the Middleside Barracks

The Tour Package already includes ferry transfers, guide fees, buffet lunch, and the actual tour of the island. The tour lasts 9 hours (including the transfers) and usually starts at 7am at the docks at CCP Complex, Manila. The jetty is near Folk Arts Theater and Coconut Palace. Cost: PhP2250 (weekdays) and PhP2449 (weekends and holidays). Steep if you ask me, but it was worth it somehow. The tour ran smoothly and was very organized.

If you’ve always wanted to visit Corregidor but have no idea what to expect, let me give you a virtual tour of the island. Here are 10 stops that form the day tour.

Klook TPT2024

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?

Battery Way

The four guns at Battery Way.

Your first stop is most likely Battery Way. It was named after 2nd Lieutenant Henry Way of the 4th US Artillery. This gun emplacement was built from 1904 to 1914. Four 12-inch mortars, capable of hurling from 45-70 degrees, sit in the middle of the site. It is one of the only two mortar batteries in Corregidor.

Battery Hearn

The biggest gun on the island is at Battery Hearn

If my memory serves me right, the gun at Battery Hearn is the largest on the island. “At firing elevation between 15 and 25 degrees, the gun could cover the full 360-degree field,” brags the site marker. “On May 6, 1942, the gun and carriage were disabled by the crew before surrendering, but the Japanese had American POW’s place the battery back in service.” Today the gun bobs beside a crater, left when the US dropped a bomb here in January 1945.

Mile-Long Barracks

The Mile Long Barracks measures only a third of a mile. But since it has three levels, it pretty much spans a mile. Almost.

The skeletal ruins of the Topside Barracks have become the most iconic landmark of the island. It used to house the quarters of American officers and enlisted personnel. The structure is also called Mile-Long Barracks even though it spans only 1520 feet, less than a third of a mile. According to our guide, however, if you walk from end to end on all three stories of the building, you will be covering almost a mile.

Pacific War Memorial

A statue of an American and a Filipino with the ruins of Cine Corregidor and the Philippine flag in the background.

Perched on the island’s highest point is the Pacific War Memorial Complex. It harbors a museum, a circular altar under a memorial dome, and the Eternal Flame of Freedom Monument, all built in honor of Filipino and American soldiers who served during World War II. The site was completed in 1968 to the tune of USD 3 Million.

Also part of the complex are Cine Corregidor, the island’s movie house, and a small park behind the flame monument, which allows a fantastic view of the island’s tail end.

By the entrance to the Pacific War Memorial Museum.

Corregidor Lighthouse

The Corregidor Lighthouse is one of the oldest structures on the island.

First lit in 1853, it is one of the oldest structures on the island. The Siege of Corregidor left it damaged, but it was reconstructed in the 1950s. Souvenir shops and small stars flank the walkway leading to the main tower.

Battery Geary

Battery Geary

Completed in 1911, this gun emplacement was named after Capt. Woodbridge Geary of the 13th US Infantry. According to CorregidorIsland.com , “The eight 12-inch mortars of this battery were considered the most effective anti-personnel weapon in Corregidor. The battery had two mortar pits with 3 magazines and its standard crew consisted of 4 men per mortar.”

Battery Crocket

The disappearing gun at Battery Crocket

Battery Crocket is one of the six emplacements with disappearing guns on the island. These 12-inch guns were said to have 360-degree traverse (other sources say only 220-degree coverage) and required no smaller than a 30-man crew to properly function.

MacArthur Statue

Statue of Gen. Douglas MacArthur

One of the most prominent figures during the war, General Douglas MacArthur was stationed in Corregidor and used it as Allied Headquarters until March 11, 1942. A statue in honor of him stands by the Lorcha Dock, MacArthur’s departure point for Australia. Many think this was where he uttered the unforgettable line, “I shall return.” Truth is, he actually said it when he was already in Adelaide, Australia.

Japanese Garden of Peace

A memorial to the Japanese soldiers who fought in Corregidor during the war and a prayer area to their kin, the Japanese Garden of Peace cradles a Shinto Shrine and a 10-ft tall stone statue of Buddha, which faces the direction of Japan.

A fertility Buddha faces the direction of Japan.

Filipino Heroes Memorial

Filipino Heroes Memorial.

Also on the tail end of the island is the Filipino Heroes Memorial, a 6000-square meter site designed by Francisco Mañosa. The main attractions here are the 14 Manual Casas-sculpted murals that depict the battles of Filipinos.

Malinta Tunnel

At the end of the tunnel, there are more tourists.

“The name Malinta came from the word ‘linta,’ meaning leech,” our tour guide explained. “When they were digging through the mountain to build the tunnel, they found a lot of these blood sucking worms along the way.”

Malinta Tunnel took 10 years to complete (1922-1932), an effort that proved useful during the war as it became the last stronghold of the military operations before the Japanese occupation. An elaborate network of tunnels run through the mountain, sheltering many of the soldiers during the war.

Today, its main tunnel is the theater for the Lights and Sound show, an audio-visual presentation created by National Artist Lamberto Avellana. The show narrates the key events of the battle in Corregidor. (Additional P200 fee applies.)

The Lights and Sounds show happens at the main tunnel of Malinta.

To be honest, the show was a bit underwhelming. For some reason, I was expecting a more dynamic, more interactive presentation, but it was segmented, outdated, and a bit dragging. (I returned to Corregidor months later and they said the Lights and Sounds show had been unavailable for weeks because of technical problems. I’m not sure if it’s operational again.)

Corregidor Hotel

Corregidor Hotel. This is where you'll have your lunch.

The lunch stop. Lunch was served at the La Playa Restaurant at Corregidor Hotel. The food was not bad, but not great either. There are three to four choices of dishes, paella, and some fruits for dessert (watermelons on the two occasions I was there). The hotel is situated along South Beach, but the break was too short for a swim. Or any beach-activity for that matter.

Been here few years back :))

I loved my visit to the Philippines and it has been many years now but my primary complaint was that leaving out of Manila had to be one of the most ridiculous displays of security I’d ever seen. After two security checks we literally walked down a corridor with no exits or entrances only to find another security stop. As if somebody might cut a whole through the roof and climb on down…nope, they have that scenario covered! It topped my list of “most security stops exiting a country” list. My recommendation after that was that if you go…plan on staying!

Macarons & Sakura Tea

Lovely article. To those who plan on visiting the place‚ don’t be having second thoughts esp. if you’re in for the history feels—it’s very worth it. Twelve years have gone by swiftly since last stepping foot on Corregidor Island. It was a cloudy February morning‚ a pleasant day for sight-seeing with friends. It was not that high and so we tried climbing atop that old light-house. The show inside the Malinta Tunnel came as pretty enjoyable to me. I eerily felt being transported back in time as part of the war being fought in the island. PS: As a side-note‚ the ‘fertility buddha’ is not actually a buddha but rather‚ a bodhisattva (pre-buddha or on the path towards buddhahood). He is best known as Avalokitesvara or the bodhisattva of mercy and compassion. His female manifestation is a mother goddess known as Kuan Yin in China or in this case‚ Kannon‚ as she is known in Japan.

Amazing piece. I would love to visit these places with a good tour guide.

Wow. Very inviting and encouraging post for those planning to visit Corregidor (like me). I love the history of Corregidor and the feel of ancient heroism in the air. Nice new layout of the blog, too!

A Day Tour of the Philippines' Historic Island of Corregidor

Japanese Garden of peace anti-aircraft cannon in Corregidor Island, Cavite, Philippines

For a quick escape and a unique experience outside Metro Manila, taking a day tour to Corregidor Island of Cavite is a great option especially if you’re into appreciating the country’s remarkable historical sites. What was once a harbor defense of Manila during the war now serves as one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Philippines.

Brief story of corregidor.

Historic Pacific war memorial Army barracks ruins Corregidor Island, Manila, Philippines

Corregidor Island, being located 30 miles out at the entrance of Manila Bay, served as the country’s immediate harbor defense against enemy warships. This U.S. Army Coast artillery had cannons, disappearing gun batteries, minefields, and other defense weapons installed in different parts of the island.

The historical battle of Corregidor began ten hours after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 8, 1941. After their attack, they concentrated their efforts on the Philippines’ archipelago and targeted Metro Manila. At the time, the Bataan peninsula, Corregidor Island, and the defensive guns of the city aimed to protect Manila and the nation from being conquered by the Japanese.

See privacy policy .

Today, the island serves both as a historical monument and must-visit destination that lures in tourists to take a look at the preserved military installations, wrecked buildings, and other important sites that serve as a tribute to the sacrifices of the Filipino and American forces who died while defending the country against the Japanese.

How to get there

There are tour companies that offer day tours for those who’d like to visit Corregidor Island in a day. Their packages often include ferryboat transfers, terminal fees, guided tour, and lunch. Upon arrival in the island, some tour operators would pick up travelers by pre-war type streetcars called “tranvias” before the beginning of the tour. Nonetheless, tourists still have the chance to rent ATVs, buses, or jeepneys .

Usually, day trip travelers are scheduled to leave the port in the morning and depart Corregidor in the afternoon. It only takes about an hour to reach the island and see the important landmarks and historical significance of the tadpole-shaped island. While a day tour is an ideal option for a quick trip outside Manila, there are lodgings and accommodations for those who’d like to spend a night on the island.

Sights to look forward to

There are a handful of places to visit (more than 10 remarkable sites) and activities to do when on the island. Apart from the tour, one can swim at the South Beach, ride a zip-line or a kayak, try birdwatching, or catch a light and sound show.

To get the most out of your experience, make sure to visit these five places below:

Malinta Tunnel

Malinta tunnel used during World War II, Corregidor island, Philippines

Usually tagged as the highlight of the Corregidor Tour, the Malinta Tunnel is famously known for being a place for ghost sightings on the island. During the Second World War, it served as a bomb shelter and even had an office for the Philippine President and a medical ward in it. When translated into English, the word “ malinta ” actually means full of leeches as the place had lots of slugs during the time it was being constructed. Now, anyone can catch a light and sound show at the Malinta Tunnel to get a glimpse of what life was like during the war.

Japanese Garden of Peace

Japanese Garden of peace marker in Corregidor Island, Cavite, Philippines

The Japanese Garden of Peace symbolizes the peace and friendship between the Filipinos and the Japanese. It’s a park dedicated by the Japanese to the late soldiers who fought during the war, whether it’s their fellow countrymen, Filipinos, or Americans. The park has a shrine, a prayer area, and a pavilion where Second World War photographs, markers, and memorabilia can be found. Visiting family members of war veterans often say a prayer to their loved ones whom they lost during the war.

Mile-long Barracks

Historic Pacific war memorial Army barracks ruins Corregidor Island, Manila, Philippines

Located on the island’s highest point, the Mile-long Barracks was constructed to be a hurricane-proof structure that houses the quarters for soldiers and the office of General Douglas McArthur. Although its length does not really reach a mile, the Topside Barracks are considered to be the longest that we have in the world. Today, it’s one of the few sites in Corregidor where travelers are allowed to roam around and explore. Even during the day, the iconic skeletal building exhibits the dark and empty ambiance that would remind one of the island’s war-ravaged past.

Battery Hearn

Battery Hearn in Corregidor

When in Corregidor, you’ll notice that there are numerous artillery batteries in sight. But among the island’s major batteries you’ll come across, Battery Hearn is the most famous. That’s because it’s the longest gun you’ll ever find and its 12-inch mortars (bullets) can fire to a range of 27 kilometers. However, this was a disadvantage during the war because its 35-degree firing elevation failed to hit Japanese forces in Bataan.

Filipino Heroes Memorial

A 10 feet high statue of an American and Filipino soldier helping each other.

Mainly designed by Filipino Architect Francisco Manosa (who also designed the EDSA Shrine in Ortigas), the sprawling Filipino Heroes Memorial is one of the island’s most notable spots. This landmark honors the Filipinos who bravely fought during the war, even if the country’s sovereignty meant losing their own lives. Here, one will find a museum which holds old photographs of President Manuel Quezon, murals carved by sculptor Manuel Casal, and some paintings of Lideo Mariano that convey the horrors of the war.

A Corregidor Island tour in Manila

Not just one of the most important things to see in Manila, Corregidor Island is also one of the most important historical military sites in Asia.

As a tourist, it's possible to visit Corregidor Island, but you need to do a bit of planning to join one of the Corregidor Island tours. To help, I've put together this information.

  • The story of Corregidor Island in World War II
  • Things to see on Corregidor Island today
  • My tips for visiting Corregidor Island

Control this island, you control Manila. It’s a maxim that explains why Corregidor Island has always been considered so important – and why it was the scene of such heavy fighting in the Second World War, as the Japanese advanced on the Philippines.

Even when the soldiers knew the end was upon them, they never gave up. This small island had held out against some of the most determined attackers, against all odds. The soldiers had every reason to be proud and so they fought on.

The date was May 6, 1942 and it was the Americans (with the help of the Filipinos) who were fighting to protect Corregidor Island this time. I say ‘this time’ because Corregidor has changed hands many times over the centuries.

Why is Corregidor Island so important?

The position of Corregidor Island in Manila Bay makes it an extremely strategic island for anyone wanting to attack or defend Manila. For this reason, it was the scene of incredibly heavy fighting during the Second World War.

What is Corregidor Island today?

These days, Corregidor Island is a war memorial to the American and Filipino soldiers who died here. Many of the original buildings and military infrastructure have been left in ruins out of respect for those who fought on the island.

Can you visit Corregidor Island?

Corregidor Island is technically open to visitors, but it’s only accessible by private ferry. Since the pandemic, those ferry trips have been very limited, meaning it can be difficult to reach Corregidor Island sometimes.

This rock rising out of the water is situated at a strategic point of Manila Bay and is one of the most important defences for the capital of the Philippines. Whoever holds the island can control the maritime access to the country’s key port.

It’s for this reason that, during the Second World War, the Japanese were so intent on claiming it. It was the key to their planned conquest of the Pacific.

Corregidor Island in World War II

For months the Japanese bombarded the island, throwing everything they had at it.

From December 1941 until May, bombs rained down and large guns shot at Corregidor. Japanese aircraft flew more than 600 missions and dropped more than 1700 bombs. Meanwhile, the artillery pieces fired consistently.

It’s estimated that on the night of heaviest fire, more than 16,000 shells hit the island.

When the Japanese finally landed on Corregidor on the night of May 5, the men waiting for them fought back as best they could. They were terribly outnumbered, though, and were running low on resources. You can only imagine how weak they would have been too.

The months of attacks had meant they could hardly get any supplies. They were eating just 800 grams of food a day and drinking water just twice.

But they knew how important Corregidor was. They weren’t just fighting for their lives but, as far as they knew, for the future of the world.

In the end, the island fell to the Japanese. The commander sent a message to President Franklin Roosevelt:  “There is a limit of human endurance, and that point has long been passed” . The remaining Americans and Filipinos, waving white flags, surrendered.

The story of the island doesn’t end there. The Japanese, with control of Corregidor, were able to take Manila Bay. It was the finest port in the Far East and they used it to expand their advance. The overnight battle on this small island meant the fall of Asia.

The tide turned a few years later and Corregidor was retaken from the Japanese in February 1945. This was the last major military action it would see.

Since the Spanish first established a base on the island in 1570, it had also been taken – and held – by the Dutch, the British, the Americans, and the Japanese. But finally Corregidor Island was at peace.

Now, when you visit Corregidor Island, you’ll be able to trace much of this history. But being able to land here peacefully is relatively new in the site’s long history.

Things to see on Corregidor Island

Until recently, the island knew nothing but war, so it’s fitting that’s what you see when you visit. All across Corregidor are the ruins of the military base run by the Americans and Filipinos during the Second World War.

The buildings that were destroyed by bombs have been left that way and others, destroyed by time, have been secured but not rebuilt. The large bases for the guns are still there and, in many cases, the guns are too.

The barracks are just skeletons but they are evidence of the men who once lived here and the lives they led.

One of the most impressive things to see on Corregidor Island is the enormous tunnel complex inside a mountain.

The main tunnel, with entrances at each end, is 250 metres long and about 7 metres wide. 24 smaller tunnels of about 50 metres come off it in both directions.

Originally it was designed as bomb-proof storage but, when the Japanese siege became too much, it was used as a bunker, a hospital and a command centre.

It was from here inside Malinta Tunnel that General Douglas MacArthur had his headquarters and the President of the Philippines had his seat of government at one point.

Around the island are walking trails – and even bike trails – that allow you to explore the heritage that remains. These days, there’s also a fair bit of interesting flora and animal life to look out for.

Corregidor isn’t massive and you could walk around the whole thing on your own if you wanted, but there wouldn’t be time to do that and get the detailed visit with all the historical information that’s usually offered with a tour.

Visiting Corregidor Island

To get to Corregidor Island, you need to go by boat. However, there are no public transport options, so you’ll need to use a private ferry.

Unfortunately, since the coronavirus pandemic, the usual ferry operator has shut down and access to Corregidor Island has been fairly patchy, with limited information about what’s available.

Tours (including boat transfers) restarted in the middle of 2022, just on Saturdays and Sundays, but then stopped again.

The tours and transfers began again in January 2023, but they are only happening on specific days.

UPDATE MAY 2023: There are currently some tours going to Corregidor Island on the following dates – Monday 1 May, Saturday 6 May, Saturday 13 May, Saturday 20 May.

The tours cost 4500 php (U$80) and includes roundtrip boat transfers, island entrance fee, historical tram tour with guide, Malinta Tunnel light show, and a buffet lunch by the beach.

The boat leaves Manila at 06:00 and gets back at 16:30.

To book a spot, get in touch with Corregidor Foundation Inc on its website or by email: [email protected] .

It’s also possible you may be able to get a tour company in Manila that can arrange a boat to Corregidor Island, but I haven’t been able to find one. (Please drop me a note and let me know if you do know of one!)

Normally, when the boats are running regularly, most tourists book a tour package with the ferry company which includes ground transportation around the island.

If you want a bit of independence and a bit more time to explore, you also used to be able stay overnight in the hotel on the island. Many people who choose this option take the tour during the day and then have the evening and next morning to explore for themselves once the tourist groups have left.

It’s a very quiet place to spend time in. Far from hectic Manila, there’s just the wind in the trees and the lapping of the water on the shore. It’s hard to imagine how noisy and chaotic it must have been when the bombs were dropping and the guns shooting.

We should be thankful for the peace now but not forget the lives that were lost here and the heroism of those who held out for so long, determined to protect Corregidor against all odds.

A place of such pivotal wartime importance…so cool that you got that chance to see it in person. Great photos!

Yeah, I really didn’t know anything about it before I went so it was really interesting to learn all about how important it was during the Second World War. And, you’re right, seeing it in person really helps you to understand what the people based here would have gone through.

My grandfather was a part of the group of american soldiers taken POW here in 1942. I’d like to know if you could tell me more detail about what each photo represents? I’m just doing a bunch of research off the backend of his memoir from 1995. If you know anything about each photo’s contents more specifically it’d be awesome to know.

One mile barracks, Corregidor

Day trip to Corregidor

This fascinating offshore island fortress, 40 kilometres west of Manila , is a treasure trove of information for history buffs and is reached in one hour aboard a 150-seat ferry.

Here, a handful of Filipino and American patriots resisted the fury of a Japanese onslaught aimed at conquering the country during World War II in the Pacific Theatre. The Battle of Corregidor was the culmination of the Japanese conquest of the Philippines, and the island's network of tunnels and strong defences proved difficult to conquer. It was only when the Japanese Army brought heavy artillery to the southern end of Bataan and proceeded to block Corregidor from any sources of food and fresh water that remaining American and Filipino forces had to surrender on 6 May 1942, with the island recaptured from the Japanese in February 1945.

An absorbing tour guides visitors through the features that made this island a formidable defence bastion: gigantic cannons across the island; a mile (0.6 kilometre) long barracks facility that housed thousands of fighting-fit soldiers; a Pacific War Memorial museum with war relics and photos; and a light and sound multivision presentation inside the darkened Malinta Tunnel where General Douglas MacArthur met with Philippine Commonwealth president Manuel L. Quezon, and from where they made their historic escape as Japanese forces invaded. The general had strongly pronounced the immortal words 'I shall return' just before making his top-secret rendezvous with a waiting submarine offshore.

Corregidor Island Travel Guide plus Historical Tour

Table of Contents

Corregidor Island has long been known as a historical place as it holds lots of memories, artifacts, and lost souls from World War II. As a former student, Corregidor Island was always on the books we read especially the historical subjects. Just like any other popular places we find in the books, we would dream of getting into that place sometime. And we just did, we were able to visit Corregidor Island and it’s like a dream come true.

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

We had a great time at Corregidor Island and we will share it with you here. It’s no longer the place where it is known as the island full of ghosts or stories alike because it has been a place of war. There still are the ruins and the eerieness for sure, but since the day it has been restored, you’ll find the island rather more enjoying and satisfying than creepy or an island that’s something to be feared of.

Corregidor Island: A Brief History

“Corregidor comes from the Spanish word “corregir,” meaning to correct. One story states that due to the Spanish system wherein all ships entering Manila Bay were required to stop and have their documents checked and corrected, the island was called “Isla del Corregidor” (Island of the Correction). Another version claims that the island was used as a penitentiary or correctional institution by the Spanish and came to be called “El Corregidor.”

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

In early and pre-hispanic times, it was likely populated by fishermen and no doubt provided a base for pirates who could easily launch an attack against any vessel entering Manila Bay. During the Spanish era, this tadpole-shaped island was a signal station where bonfires were lit to alert Manila of a home-coming galleon. Later on, Spaniards built a lighthouse on the island.

The Spaniards set up a naval dockyard on the island in 1795. This was followed by a naval hospital and a signal station which was used primarily to warn Manila of approaching enemies. In 1836 a lighthouse was built and in 1853 a stronger light was installed. This was replaced in 1897 and remained in use until the outbreak of the Pacific War , during which it was heavily damaged and rebuilt to the same specifications. During the Spanish times, the small town of San Jose emerged to become the seat of government on the island. Later under the Americans, it evolved into a small community with its paved streets lined with the houses of the Philippine Scouts who constituted the bulk of the garrison in Corregidor.

After the defeat of the Spanish forces by Admiral George Dewey in May of 1898, Spain ceded Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines to the Americans under the Treaty of Paris which was signed on December 10, 1898. In 1903 a former Spanish garrison building there was converted to a convalescent hospital. The island was designated as a U.S. Military Reservation in 1907 and the army post on Corregidor was named Fort Mills, after Brig. Gen. Samuel M. Mills, chief of artillery of the U.S. Army in 1905-1906. A regular army post was later established in 1908.

The following year army engineers of “H” company, 2nd Battalion of the U.S. Corps of Engineers began to build fortifications on the island to secure the seaward approach to Manila Bay. This was part of the planned “Harbor Defenses of Manila and Subic Bay” due to the strategic location of Corregidor. Concrete emplacements and bomb-proof shelters were constructed and trails and roads were laid out on the island. This engineer contingent left on March 15, 1912, after laying down the groundwork to make Corregidor a great military bastion. Thus began the transformation of a small fishing village into a fortress and site of one of the most heroic battles in the history of war. The big guns of Corregidor in 1941 were used in support of Filipino and American defenders of Bataan until the island itself was invaded by Japanese Forces. The restless pounding by Japanese guns including intermittent bombings reduced its defenses and compelled its surrender. On January 22, 1945, Corregidor was once again caught in the fury of war as the Americans retook the island after a bloody battle.” – Source: Brief History

Corregidor Island: A Historical Experience

From Esplanade Terminal, we boarded the Sun Cruises ferry at 7:30 am. The ferry was large enough to accommodate up to 280 passengers and it’s somehow similar to the boat when we went to Bintan, Indonesia from Singapore. There are two decks in the boat, the upper deck, and the lower deck. Of course, there are better views on the upper deck. I only explored the boat for a short time and since we didn’t have much sleep, I went back to my seat and took a nap. When I opened my eyes, we are almost near Corregidor Island.

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

Upon docking, we collected our bags and headed down to the island and took a welcome drink from the table where a crew was waiting. Also, I was quite surprised since I did not expect Corregidor Island to be a large island. I thought it was big enough but it was not, it’s a huge island, and there are a lot of trees and some wildlife in the area too!

After taking our drinks, we all went to our designated tram, the vehicle used in the island for transport, and started our Corregidor Historical Tour.

Corregidor Historical Tour

For the Corregidor Historical Tour, we went to the following places:

• Malinta Tunnel

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

The tunnel got its name from the word “linta” meaning “leech” in English. The area was previously flocking of leeches that’s why it’s called “Malinta”. Here, we went inside to see the lateral connections of each tunnel and how it functioned as a base camp for the Filipino and American soldiers during World War II.

Later on, we also went back here for the Malinta Tunnel Lights and Sounds Show featuring what happened during the war.

• Japanese Memorial Garden

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

A place where some of the Japanese soldiers were buried. My friend, Tina, didn’t like the place as she sensed some bad vibes in the area. It’s also where a souvenir shop is located. You can take a quick picture here as it spots one of the iconic statues in the area.

• Kindley Airfield

We only went here to see how the airfield looks like. Only small planes can land in Kindly Airfield.

• Filipino Heroes Memorial

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

A landmark which honors the courage of Filipinos who fought for sovereignty. It houses a museum on one part of its end and holds old photographs of the late President Manuel L. Quezon, a miniature structure of Corregidor Island, and a few portraits and photographs during the World War II. This landmark also honors the Filipino Women who fought side by side with the soldiers.

• Pacific War Memorial Museum

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

It holds remnants and pieces of important belongings and events happened in Corregidor Island during World War II . There are areas dedicated to the letters of American soldiers to their families, one was for the weapons used during the war, and a few other more. Veteran American soldiers sometimes are also visiting the Pacific War Memorial Museum and look into the photographs when they were still young, reminiscing the memories of the old island.

In the area, also rose the Cine Corregidor where soldiers are watching movies in their non-busy days.

• Malinta Tunnel Lights and Sounds Show

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

Before going for lunch, we had a quick 15 – 20 mins of lights and sounds show inside the Malinta Tunnel. This shows the happening in the Philippines focusing Corregidor Island and everything that happened in chronological order. If you really are into history, you should take this tour and never think of fear as the tunnel gets dark.

corregidor-island-travel-guide-plus-historical-tour

The historical tour was really fun, enjoyable, and full of knowledge. As I get deeper details on every story in Corregidor, my curiosity gets wild as well. While on the tour, I got questions like “What was it like living in a tunnel, not seeing the sun for days?”, “How was life like during those days?”, and many more. I am a naturally curious person so I really wanted to see, as I said to myself, even only in dreams, how Corregidor looks like when it was full of soldiers and their families in the island, to think that there was a cinema in the area, and even a swimming pool in the middle of the jungle.
