Puerto Galera Yacht Club

Top choice in Puerto Galera


This is a hidden gem, perched among the trees on the west edge of Muelle Bay. Sunset drinks and a barbecue are the traditional way to celebrate Friday, while 'Wet Wednesdays' mean all-you-can-eat curry for just P289.

A free shuttle boat (three minutes) operates from the Muelle pier waterfront, or you can drive here easily enough.
