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.
