TALIPANAN BEACH, PUERTO GALERA
It has been six years since my feet first touched the white
sands of Puerto Galera, and it feels good to be coming back again to almost
everyone’s first beach experience.
White Beach has been the most favorite in Puerto Galera. And
it being so, makes it so crowded compared among the rest of the beaches, a
reason we opted for Talipanan Beach Resort this time. Since this would be our first time in Talipanan, we asked some friends who have been there and consulted the net. According to my resources, Talipanan is a better choice for those who
want a serene and relaxed stay. And with this claim, we’ve decided to pack our
bags and head straight to Talipanan.
Talipanan is a 3-4 hour ride from Manila. We took a bus in
Buendia going to Batangas Pier. From there we rode a boat that would bring us
to Talipanan.
What a wonderful way to welcome us!!!
When we reached Talipanan, we headed straight to Bamboo
Resort where we had our room booked. The room was quite okay, air conditioned,
has a native feel – not bad.

We just unpacked our things then had an early dinner at Luca’s. It is a famous restaurant serving Italian pasta and pizza.
Their serving is already good for 4 persons. A price of Php300 on an average
per food is just reasonable. We tried the Luca’s Special Pizza and Seafood
Pasta. It tasted really good.

Seafood Pasta. Tempting!!!
After having a chow, we decided to go to White Beach and
experience the other side of Puerto Galera, the loud music, the fire dance and
the people. There are tricycles at the back of the resort that could bring you
to White Beach for Php 100-150.
We could really feel the energy in White Beach as we’re welcomed by loud music like saying it’s time to party. We got ourselves entertained by fire dancers (which I hope to be…someday). And how could we miss a shot or pitcher rather of Mindoro sling.
An advice on life; just DRINK ON IT
We spent the next day beach bumming and site seeing, literally.
Tamaraw Beach Resort, a promising target
There are many activities you can do like snorkerling,
island hopping, parasailing, water rides or nature tripping. You can visit
their falls or you can rent a motorbike and explore whole of the island.
