Where to
go now.
Four places the province is pointing at this season. Hundreds more behind them.

Below

Puerto Galera sits on the Verde Island Passage, which marine scientists have called the centre of the centre of shore-fish diversity on the planet. Walls, wrecks, sanctuaries — most of it a short boat ride from Sabang.
