Puerto Galera are a macro photographer’s heaven. There are hundreds of species
of nudibranchs found in the area (700 at last count). Blue ribbon, moray and snowflake eels, lionfish, various species of parrot, damsel and trigger fishes, and of course, the perennial favourite of any South Pacific reef species, Oceallaris, the clown or anemone fish, recently made popular by Disney/Pixar’s film Finding Nemo. Once in a while, large species such as tuna, black tip sharks and mantas can be seen. The hard and soft coral cover are in amazing shape here even after the much talked about El Nino and La Nina cycles that devastated much of the world’s reefs.
