Puerto
Galera, dubbed as the Pearl of Mindoro, is a beach resort
town located on the north shore of Mindoro Island, 130 kilometers
south of Manila, and 14 nautical miles from Batangas City.
It comprises of 12 coastal districts (barangays or barrios)
and one mountain district scattered over an area of 23,247
hectares, bordered on the north by Verde Island, on the
south by Baco and Malasimbo mountains, on the northeast
by the town of San Teodoro, and on the northwest by the
Province of Occidental Mindoro.
The terrain is rugged with sometimes dense jungle, an irregular
coastline with crystal, clear water and wide sand beaches,
a natural harbor and safe anchorage. Its natural seawall,
exciting dive sites, lush mountains and white pristine beaches
make Puerto Galera one of the Philippine's top tourist destinations.
