| A view of the White Beach, Puerto Galera. |
1. White Beach, Puerto Galera
White Beach is an area near the crowded center of Puerto Galera, one of the island's hopeful destinations. If you just want to relax on a beach with fine white sand and cool crystal-clear water, you can find it here. The area has a gorgeous landscape because of the trees by the beach. The serenity of this island is still maintained, so you can have a relaxing day tour.
Puerto Galera is one of the top tourist spots in Oriental Mindoro because of its white beaches, island-hopping, and underwater activities. This summer destination is already commercialized, so expect modern design and world-class resorts and hotels. Most of the restaurants serve appetising and mouth-watering delicacies. During the nighttime, this area transforms into a party haven, with fire dancers performing by the beach. Souvenir shops by the beach are also available.
2. Mt. Halcon
Mt. Halcon is one of the gems of Mindoro and is considered one of the most difficult mountains to hike in the Philippines. This giant separates Oriental to Occidental and has a wide rain-forest area being protected by the Mangyan tribe members. It has a very long trail and most parts of these are ascending up to the summit. I've visited a lot of river systems in the Philippines, but the Dulangan River is one of the finest because of its super clear and cool water.
3. Experience Underwater in Sabang.
Our group, Batang Hamog Mountaineers, usually make sure to participate in any Freedom-related activities to celebrate the freedom that was proclaimed on June 12, 1898. This year, just to be out of our comfort zone we organised a Freedom Dive held in Sabang, Puerto Galera, Mindoro, which is one of the best diving spots in the Philippines. We all know that the Philippines is composed of more than seven thousand islands and are surrounded by water, so scuba diving is just one of the must tried water activities.

Mindoro Island is divided into two provinces, Oriental and Occidental. Its main products are mostly agricultural, but it also has beautiful and stunning tourist destinations that it can be proud of, from the historical sites to the beautiful white beaches, underwater richness, rain forests from the mountains, and the people. I have tried solo backpacking to Mindoro several times, and the people here are some of the most hospitable and friendly in the country.
