... travel to Puerta Galera. The boat we travelled over on was pretty small and the sea was quite rough considering it was a nice day, I wouldn't like to do it in the typhoon season though.
Arrived in Sabang where we had 3 nights staying at a nice hotel up in the hills overlooking the town. There's a hotel in town called Tropicana which looks like a medieval castle, it doesn't really suit the surroundings, it'd be better in Vegas. Sabang was ok but nothing special, ...
