Wow a foot long! That's a big one! The one I saw at Sabang Wrecks was barely 6 inches... But so beautifull to watch!

Got to Puerto Galera in time on Friday, June 6th in time to get a night dive in. Something to be aware of is when you get off the ferry at Sabang you're going to get swarmed by people who want to take you to place to stay. They of course get money for doing this. Nothing wrong with that, just something to be aware of. You can bargain and you don't have to take the first place you see. Of course I went during the off-season when there are plenty of rooms. During the season it probably wouldn't hurt to have a reservation. Maybe some of the others here who have been there during busier times could speak to that? I've only been to PG during the off-season.
I went to Dive Dojo first as they had been recommended to me. After getting set up to dive that night, I walked around and bargained for room. I knew I could get find something reasonable as it was the off-season. I ended up paying 900 pesos a night (around $22 a night if I remember correctly) for a kitchenette at the very end of Sabang Beach.
Beach of course is a relative term. During high tide I could literally walk on the boat from the front steps of the Dive Dojo... DIVE DOJO
I've already listed the dive sites that I made while there. I think most of the major dive sites I've done there now. The nice thing about PG is that all the dive sites are relatively close together. Maximum 15 minutes and your on site.
A knowledge of the local tides is key here and the current can be a real roller coaster!
I greatly enjoyed Puerto Galera and I'm sure I'll make another trip there at some time in the future
Here are a few more photos from diving in PG:
