Puerto Galera - Sightseeing at White Beach




Puerto Galera - is located in Mindoro Oriental , and is considered to be one of most developed beach resorts community near Metro Manila. Definitely it is one of the top destinations of both local and tourist alike. What is attractive in Puerto Galera is its crystal clear water , specially during summer.





This was my first trip to Puerto Galera last April 2012, it didn't surprise me to see lots of people, hey! its summer and as i said this is one the top destinations for tourist and locals alike.
I took a few snaps when we arrived , but somehow i realized  it will be hard for me to take good pictures at the beach.  so i decided to take a nap for the rest of the the afternoon and just take photos during sunset.



Unfortunately, after the nap,  a friend told me the weather had overcast skies. 
It didn't stop me to stroll down the beach and shoot though.
It may have been not the best sunset i've seen ( no red ball sun , no golden yellow skies)  but at a so called "golden hour" , it was enough to pull a dozen few good pictures , after all this what i came for.


And I was happy with what i got , and satisfied enough to put a smile from ear to ear.


When we left Puerto Galera the next day. I though of going back again , not because i did not have enough. but i feel i need to experience the other face of Puerto Galera , the one when the beach bumming season is not at its peak.

Enjoy!
