Puerto Galera is located in Oriental Mindoro, South of Manila and is known to be one the best places to go during the summer season. The coastal town's scenic and white beaches, water that's perfect for scuba diving and snorkeling is just few of what the town can offer its visitors . Two of its famous beaches, the "Sabang Beach" is the more popular destination for tourists while the "White Beach" remains a local destination.
Having visited the place twice already, I felt like there is more to discover in this beautiful place than its beaches and corals. More scenic views such as waterfalls and majestic landscapes.
The place remains a personal favorite destination because of its reasonable rates, fairly short travel time from the city, but most especially the way the place make you feel.
Boat ride from Batangas port to Puerto Galera takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour. If you're not fond of riding boats and get seasick, choose the spot at the front where you can get fresh air. Boats tend to be a little bit loaded during the pick season.
Land Tour is usually offered by locals outside the hotels located along the beaches of Puerto Galera. During the offseason, you don't need to book in advance for the tour as they can accommodate you on the spot once you request. Rate depends on the number of tourists and tour includes, car, 1 driver and 1 tour guide.
