Puerto Galera is one of the oldest Spanish settlements within the Philippines. As early as the 10th Century, Malaysians, Chinese and Indonesian merchants were already doing business with local traders. Puerto Galera is where they replenished their provisions and was also known as the Port of Galleons. The harbour was an excellent location for the Spanish Galleons to refuge from heavy storms and typhoons.
These days, you’ll find paradise. Puerto Galera is blessed with one of the world’s most beautiful natural harbours. Now known as the “Pearl of Mindoro”, it is world-famous for splendid beaches, coral reefs, and exquisite dive sites for new and experienced divers alike – all in a relaxed, laid-back beach atmosphere.
Puerto Galera is located on the northern peninsula of the island of Mindoro, 130km south of Manila (2.5-hour drive) and about 14 nautical miles from Batangas city (1-hour boat ride). Behind the irregular coastline with its clear water and wide sand beaches are the vast and mostly unexplored mountain ranges of central Mindoro. The terrain is rugged with sometimes dense jungle. Indigenous tribes still live scattered over the mountainsides.
Puerto Galera is a popular destination for its beautiful bays and natural harbour offering a safe anchorage, a selection of 32 beaches to visit and for its delightful scenery. Sabang Beach, including Big Lalaguna and Small Lalaguna Beach, is the main resort area for foreign tourists. At the same time, White Beach is popular amongst local (Filipino) tourists and has seen a significant development boom in recent years. Both have numerous restaurants and bars along the beachfront and an active nightlife.
The Batangas/Puerto Galera area forms the centre of the golden triangle – The Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia – renowned for their coral and fish species.
El Galleon Dive Resort and its dive centre, Asia Divers, are renowned for their serene and quaint beachfront surroundings fronting Small Lalaguna Beach in Puerto Galera.
The resort has 30 air-conditioned rooms, some with majestic views of Sabang Bay and Small Lalaguna Beach. Rooms are complete with free Wi-Fi, flatscreen TV, mini bar, and room safe. Resort facilities also include two bars, a swimming pool and a lovely outdoor spa. The restaurant extends to the water’s edge, offering great value in an excellent selection of international cuisines.
Puerto Galera is one of the leading scuba diving locations in the Philippines, offering some of the best diving in Asia. Asia Divers is located in “The Verde Island Passage Marine Corridor” (VIP) which is known as “the centre of marine biodiversity”, the heart of the Coral Triangle. There is no better place to experience this than with their spacious dive centre. Asia Divers have the only dive centre in Puerto Galera with a private pier and diving platform.
