The Philippines is composed of islands that is why it has a lot of beautiful beaches where people go to during the summer to relax, unwind and bond with their family and friends.
Last week, April 17, 2010. I went to White Beach Puerto Galera with my high school friends to escape the busy and stressful life of the city of manila. It was a great vacation experience, we bond, swim, relaxed, and drink till we drop during the night! here is a picture of Puerto Galera!

I've never been to puerto galera. But I am not dreaming to be in that place. As I know that place is some how polluted area (I guess). I would really prefer to the virgin island that not yet developed or just a few people have been there.
Just like camiguin, I mean not the part of the island facing to the main island. On the other part of island, you can see the paradise. Such great nature that I could imagne, I could say I only find it in the postcard. I would never thought that its all true.
There are a lot of many other island that offer the same thing but with great adventure and different experiences.

Puerto Galera is not the same as it once was. It's quite dirty now (like a lot of other beaches). The only thing it has going for it is it is quite accessible if you are coming from Manila. Other than that, it has nothing new to offer.
You're better off at Coron. Even Boracay has lost some of its luster (unless you're staying at Station 1).

I dreamed to visit Puerto Galera too, I think it has one of the finest beaches in the country. Just last week, April 17 to 18, 2010, our group had gone to a two-day tour to the beautiful island of Camiguin here in Mindanao. We also had a great time there frolicking in the White Island and took a rugged excursion to its breathtaking tourist spots like the Katibawasan Falls, Hot Spring at the foot of Mt.Hibok-Hibok and the province's famous Cold Spring. It was a wonderful trip that up to now I kept savoring the once-in-a-lifetime experience.

I haven't been there yet. Going to resorts is one of the least of our priorities. But lately, I'm changing that motto. I started with joining our company's outing last week through persistence of my officemates. Two weeks before that I and my family went to a nearby pool resort. Both are fun, somehow. After that, my family is looking forward to going to more resorts. Cheers!

I know Philippine is a very beautiful country and there are many nice beaches there. I think one day I will have a travel in your country because it is so attractive for me. It is quite relaxing to have a travel in the beach.
I love China

Mindoro is yet pristine. I do hope Puerto Galera does not become another Boracay. The Philippines is endowed with so much paradise. That is why we are fast becoming a scenic destination. Indonesia is being frequented by quakes, and tsunamis. That is why we have to take care of our islands and pray sincerely that God keep our home a heaven on earth.

I haven't been there. It's one of the places I want to go, having heard of its white beaches. Problem is I can't go there alone, I have to bring my family with me and that would cost me a lot. Maybe we can go there next summer when my youngest child graduated from college, it's a good treat for her at the same time the whole family can enjoy.
