What is it like to live in Puerto Galera?

A question many would ask and those who know less will say, its a sleepy town ideal for retirees and old people.  This was indeed true 20 years ago but over the years Puerto Galera had become more active with establishments sprouting like mushrooms.  Now, there are numerous open-air bars, where one can sit and enjoy drinks with fellow customers from all parts of the world.  There are entertainment centers, pool tables, tennis courts, lots of restaurants serving all kinds of cuisine. 

Technology continues to play a major part in Puerto Galera’s transformation into a First Class Municipality.  There is high speed Internet, Cable TV, mobile and landline telephone services and power outages are at a minimum. 

Water is strong in some areas and scarce in a few.  There is an ongoing project to make the water supply sufficient for the entire municipality.  There is also a plan to build a huge Sewerage Treatment Plant to address concerns on the pollution coming from wastewater.

There are many schools for elementary and secondary (high school) education and a college and one vocational school in town.  Most locals opt to study college in Batangas or in Calapan which is a short distance away from Puerto Galera.  The more affluent study in Manila.

The prices of properties had gone up astronomically through the years.  However there are still some properties which are reasonably priced.  Check-out some of the properties in our listing.
