Puerto Galera Frequently Asked Questions

I am going to answer just a few of the FAQs in this post and at some point in the future, we may look at building a whole question page or database for you to resort to. Now, this is not going to tell you everything about living in some of the beautiful places in the Philippines rather give you some advice on how you can get to one of the most beautiful spots in the Philippines, Puerto Galera.

Here are the following questions I’m going to answer in this post:

Let me know if you need any more detail on any of these Puerto Galera Frequently Asked Questions and I will do my best to get back to you with an answer as soon as I am able.

What & Where is Puerto Galera, Philippines?

Puerto Galera is a tropical wonderland located only 120km from Manila on top of Mindoro Island. This place is actually a province, not a town, and encompasses an adventurous area that includes Town Proper (Poblacion), Sabang & White Beach.

In fact, as many travelers are aware, Puerto Galera is well known for Scuba Diving as the Verde Island Passage located between Batangas and Mindoro island has been declared the Center of the Center of Marine Shorefish Biodiversity in the world.

Its surrounding area is protected as a Man and Biosphere Reserve of UNESCO site providing wondrous opportunities for sightseeing and Hiking.

Puerto Galera Bay also belongs to the Club of the Most Beautiful Bays in the World and if given the chance to arrive here on Muelle Pier, see exactly why that as you get there.

How to go to Puerto Galera from Manila, Cavite, Cebu, Subic Bay, Angeles City, or really anywhere in the Philippines?

This is probably the #1 of all the Puerto Galera Frequently Asked Questions.

Definitely, the most common route to Puerto Galera is through BATANGAS PIER. NO public ships, boats, or airplanes go directly to Puerto Galera from Manila or anywhere else in the Philippines.

In Particular, the Options starting with the Cheapest are this.

Public Bus: Buses leave PITX (Paranaque Integrated Transit Exchange,)Buendia, Cubao & many other locations in Manila hourly

Private Car: Commute by car on South Super Highway then Star Tollway. Park at the Pier

Taxi or Van: From any point to Batangas Pier. Set the price FIRST & who pays the toll fees. Once at Batangas Pier you will take a Public Ferry boat to one of two ports in Puerto Galera.

Below are lists of Puerto Galera’s Ports.
  • Muelle Pier: This is the Main Tourist Pier and the Heart of Puerto Galera. Awesome for Scuba Diving & Adventure.
  • Balatero Pier: RoRo vessels for cars & passengers plus Fast Craft go here taking passengers.

To go directly from Manila to Puerto Galera there is a regular (sometimes) Sea Plane flight that leaves from the Manila Yacht club.

Subic Bay also has a Float Plane you can charter going to Puerto Galera.

There are a few other ways to go to Puerto Galera if you are in Palawan or Iloilo. Take A Ferry going to Roxas, San Jose, or any southern port on the island of Mindoro then Bus or Jeep to Puerto Galera.
