Puerto Galera, which literally means “Port of Galleons” gained its popularity way back 16th century, when merchant vessels & seafarers used its natural harbors as safe haven for ships during storms and typhoons. This island is located in Oriental Mindoro, the seventh largest island in the Philippines.

Puerto Galera’s excellent natural harbor, rich tropical rainforests and crystal clear waters, recently received an award as one of the “Most Beautiful Bays” in the world (the 30th bay worldwide to get such recognition, and the Third in Asian Region after Halong Bay in Vietnam) by UNESCO. Today, Puerto Galera’s untamed beauty and rich culture is a major destination for travelers who seek adventure, fun, and total relaxation.
