We say "Mindoro", we mean - "Puerto Galera", a world-famous diving resort with an unreal underwater life (more about which is worth reading in this material - "Diving at Mindoro"). There are more than 50 dive sites for athletes of different levels, several yacht clubs and, in addition, extremely uncharacteristic strip-bars for the Philippines. In a word, paradise.
The island itself (in the translation of the "Gold mine"), divided by mountains into two provinces, Western and Eastern Mindoro, is famous for the Aninuana waterfalls, the Apo reef marine park, Alcon mountain, Tamarro waterfalls and Lake Nauhan.
