WHITE BEACH PUERTO GALERA

White Beach Puerto Galera

 It's already last week of February when my friend "Billy" invited me to go with them in Puerto Galera. Since it's summer and I've never been to this beach, I excitedly said YES!!!

It's my first time in Puerto Galera and i just can't wait to explore this island. Many of my friends already been here, and so far I heard positive feedback from them after their visit.

Since I still have work on Friday night. I already packed up my thing early as Wednesday.(not much excited)

Travel time to Batangas took more than 2 hours, so I still have time to take a nap, since i came from a graveyard shift from work.

We arrived in White Island around 11:00 A.M. We were welcomed by the owner of our chosen accommodation, BLUE MARLYN'S with the little banner with our name printed on it. We just dropped our bags in our room and immediately started to explore the White Island Beach.

Here's what we did:
