Mindoro, considered part of Luzon, is the next big island to the south of Manila. Puerto Galera is located on its northern tip and best known for its popular beaches and coral reefs.
This little village has a beautiful natural harbour and despite the growing influx of tourism, the disruption on the environment has so far been kept within bounds.
Historically the Spanish used the bay of Puerto Galera for safe anchoring during the typhoons, which is where the name comes from "Port of Galleons".
