Puerto Galera


Among the famous beaches in Puerto Galera are Sabang Beach and White Beach, which have an active nightlife with numerous bars and restaurants. Both beaches also have an array of first-class and economy-class accommodations.
Sabang beach is the main destination for foreign tourists, while White Beach remains popular with local travelers.Big La Laguna Beach and Small La Laguna Beach are considered part of Sabang with resorts lining the beaches. Big La Laguna Beach is popular for local swimmers and snorkelers. Since 2001 White beach has seen uncontrolled development. New restaurants and places to stay are rapidly encroaching on the beach itself and little remains of the once charming beach. Puerto Galera town is a pleasant but sleepy Philippine town with few attractions. It has a large central catholic church and a Pier area, with a selection of bistros and cafes.
Behind the beaches are the huge and generally unexplored mountain ranges of central Mindoro. A particular local attraction is the nine hole golf course perched on the hillside above White Beach which commands spectacular views over Puerto Galera's natural harbor and the Verde Island Passage. Mangyan tribes are scattered over the mountain sides - some of the more remote tribes have virtually no contact with the outside world. Of the eight tribes on Mindoro, the Iraya are the largest. They are based in the Puerto Galera area.
Puerto Galera is among the top diving destination in the Philippines. Excellent diving is found less than 5 minutes from Sabang Beach. The diving generally focuses around the areas either side of Escarceo Point, which is famous for its current rips. Strong currents are a feature of the diving in Puerto Galera and it is good advice to employ the services of an experienced local guide or dive centre. There are more than thirty dive sites all within a 5-10 minute banca ride from Sabang Beach. Marine life is highly diverse. 180+ species of nudibranchs are found in the area and many species of fish can be seen. A variety of wrecks have been sunk over the years in addition to the one wreck of an engine of a WWII Japanese patrol boat.

Daranak Falls


Daranak falls is located in Brgy. Sampaloc, Tanay, Rizal, a few minutes from Tanay market.
I remember going to Daranak Falls and Batlag Falls last 2008 with my friends. We just thought of going there just to see the falls. .we very excited to see the Falls since I used to work in Tanay, I am wondering what this province has to offer This is the Daranak Falls, this is the 1st falls you will see upon entering the park, there's still another falls but you have to hike up the hill to see it.It is a government-owned park and part of the laguna watershed. If you are going by private vehicle, just follow the road going to Laguna from Antipolo. At the Daranak-Tanay junction (see waypoint), turn left and head straight uphill. You will see a sign "To Daranak Falls" at the left side of the road. It's hard to miss since there are several fruit stands on both sides of the road which sell fruits in season. Once you have turned left, just go straight. Check you brakes as you will pass by rocky steep roads. You will arrive at the parking area of Daranak at the end of this roa,hard enough to go there but once u get in there…its speech less reaction…just a big wowwwwwww!!!!!

Only 55 km (34 mi) away from Manila,it is one of the country's most popular tourist destinations. The city is a popular summer tourist destination because of its cool climate due to its high altitude
Picnic groves in tagaytay overlooking the impressive Taal Vista Volcano. The Lake itself is a volcano filled up with fresh rain water. The mini volcano is in the middle. Very cool!
This cage, erm, cable car is the other main attraction at the Picnic Grove. It's better for small children and older folks. IMHO, though, I think this is more scary than the zipline, because it moves so slowly -- more time for you to gaze at the trees far below you.
