Puerto Galera is a first class municipality in Oriental Mindoro, about 130 km south of Manila. Although occupying the northernmost tip of another island (Mindoro Island), it can be easily reached from Luzon. This accessibility from the capital and CALABARZON, the country’s most populous region, made it one of the most popular beach destination for decades.

Puerto Galera faces the Verde Island Passage, which is described by a 2007 Smithsonian Institute study as the “center of the center” of the world’s marine biodiversity citing the high concentration of marine species. In 1973, it was declared a UNESCO Man and Biosphere Reserve. Read More: https://www.thepoortraveler.net/2019/05/puerto-galera-oriental-mindoro/

Puerto Galera is a soothing vision of shimmering seas surrounded by lush mountains. It is considered one of the most beautiful and developed beach resort community in the country.

Starting from “backyard tourism” wherein local residents accept local and foreign tourist as stay-in guest, the island’s tourism has flourished. In the course of time, several hotels, resorts, inns and restaurants have mushroomed within the area.

There are a thousand things one can do here. Landlubbers can pitch tents, light bonfires, play volleyball, toss a Frisbee, go beach-hopping, watch the sunset, gaze at the stars, hike, go rock climbing, carom off on a motorcycle, discover Oriental Mindoro’s other tourist spots or simply live it up.

Puerto Galera in Oriental Mindoro is considered as one of the best tourist destinations in the Philippines. Like many other island destinations, this beautiful place is great for beach goers and even divers. In the past years, Puerto Galera has also been recognized as one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

Tourists have the options to stay either on “White Beach” or “Sabang Beach”. Both areas have distinct characters that suit to your preferences. Moreover, Puerto Galera is indeed a family-friendly destination due to its shallow waters and offers no strong currents.

Aside from beach bumming, everyone can also experience the rich marine biodiversity of Mindoro. Diving centers are available in the island offering various packages.   Read More: http://puertogaleraparadise.com/
