Puerto Galera is recognized as one of the most beautiful bays in the world. It is also well known for its white sand beach, and best for diving and snorkeling.
It is located on the island of Oriental Mindoro and it is one of the most accessible beaches from Metro Manila and nearby provinces from the South. Local travels within the Philippines love this island so much. Moreover, foreigners or international tourists are not only delighted of the beaches and nature but also they are enjoying to stay there for good.
How to go to Puerto Galera 2022?
Mode of transportation going to Puerto Galera from Manila are via public utility bus (from Buendia) and private cars or taxi to Batangas City Pier. From Batangas port, you need to ride a fast craft or RORO (big ship) to Balatero port in Puerto Galera. At this time, there is only one port being used in Puerto Galera. If you are a returning tourist, there is no port anymore at Sabang Beach, Muelle Bay, and White Beach.
Once you are in Puerto Galera you can travel within the town using public utility vehicles such as tricycle, jeepney, boat, and you can rent a private car or motorcycle.
