The Other Side of Mindoro

The side of Mindoro that is more famous is Oriental Mindoro because of Pueto Galera. What most people do not know is that Occidental Mindoro has a lot to boast also.

In Occidental Mindoro, you can find the second largest contiguous coral reef in the world and the largest one in the Philippines. It is in Apo Reef. A protected area where you can see lots of fish, coral reefs and there are even sharks. A favorite dive spot.

A resort nearby, the Pandan Island Resort is a great place to snorkel and even to dive. But for the non-divers, you would also enjoy it. Even if it's not a fine sand beach, it's a great place to start snorkelling since even in shallow waters you can find colorful fish and reefs.
Apo Reef and Pandan Island are both situated in Sablayan, Occidental Mindoro. It is really an adventure going there. Frm Manla, you can either go by boat or by plane. Boat is either via San Jose or Abra de Ilog, and after that a landtrip. Plane is only via San Jose. The land trip is still an adventure, with the bus you're going to ride and the road you're going to pass. Really an adventure worth trying.
