| THE
ADVENTURE Easily accesible from Puerto
Galera are many places of interest including Tamaraw Waterfalls, Mangyan (indigenous
native) villages, gold panning, day trips to neighboring islands, trekking in
the jungle and exploring the many hidden valleys and streams or climbing Mt. Malisimbo
are a part of your adventure. There
is a golf course with a spectacular views, 600 meters above sea level five kilometers
west of Puerto Galera. Water sports like scuba diving and snorkeling, sea kayaking,
wind surfing, sailing or simply swimming in beautiful crystal clear waters off
white sand beaches are the favorite activities on the Island. If
you are a visitor to the Philippines or you need a break from Manila, the short
trip to this island is certainly rewarding, for as legend has it, that once a
sailor arrived on the island he would never leave without a promise to come back. Some
of the best diving spots in the Philippines are within easy reach from the many
resorts and dive centers, fully equipped with the latest diving gear and a supporting
team of international diving instructors who conduct courses from beginner to
instructor level. Diving in this area
has been a fascination for many years, not only because of its natural beauty
underwater but in the hope of discovering artifacts or a sunken Galleon. |
