Nice to see another diver in Korea.
Even though you have decided on Puerto Galera, keep Anilao on your list. The Philippines has great diving, is less expensive than many other places and Manila is less than a four hour flight from Incheon or Busan. You can also fly from Incheon to Cebu or connect in Manila to go further south. I have a friend who returned last week from Cabilao Island and she really liked it.
Having dove both PG and Anilao, if I were to choose one to go back to strictly for the diving, I would choose Anilao. I really enjoyed my Anilao diving.
1. Anilao: Really great macro! Basically, sleep, eat and dive with one operation. IMHO, not a place to go if at the end of the dive day you want options to eat dinner out at various places and/or party. I did 3 (sometimes 4) dives a day, had dinner and went to bed. Friday and Saturday nights had some decent parties (people there from Manila for the weekend) if you wanted to join in.
2. PG: Pleasant diving. At the end of each dive day you have lots of choices of where to eat, drink and/or party.
