Congratulations to Nicolas Ficheux for earning his PADI OW cert! The water part was pretty easy for him as Nicolas has been doing several Bubble-maker divers over the past couple years…but separating from the iPad and doing the reading involved a few mild threats for sure!!
“Always work in buddy teams” Alli said….Louise Remus gets her buddy Megan Wells to help her get into Alli’s 7mm wetsuit, while Nicolas Ficheux supervises…
Happy 1015 everyone! We hope you celebrated and had as much fun as we did. The weather cooperated and we were able to enjoy a fine night of dining at El Galleon and then on to the Point to ring in the New year with an amazing fireworks display. May 2015 be a great year for everyone and we hope to see you all here! Now it’s time for all of us here to off gas …
The Chefs did an amazing job with a delicious spread for 86 people on New Year’s Eve.
It’s been a busy time for all the staff, but the happiness and humor continues on.
It’s been great to have Cy and Bonny and their family here and especially nice to help celebrate Cy’s birthday with him.

There are many activities and events to keep the whole family busy in Puerto Galera. One yearly event is the The Malasimbo Music and Arts Festival. It is the first international music and arts festival of its caliber in the Asia-Pacific and it’s set amidst the tropical gardens of Puerto Galera..
The festival debuted in February 2011 to a stunning turnout of 1,500 individuals. Attendance more than doubled on year two as the festival drew in over 3,500 tourists. The festival is recognized by the Department of Tourism Philippines as a prime catalyst for the country’s continued advance in music, arts, and culture. It is highly publicized in local and international media for its awe-inspiring landscape and unique eco-cultural program.
Bob Marley would have turned 70 in 2015, so the reggae singer’s family is marking the milestone with a yearlong commemoration of his music and legacy. His son Ky-Mani Marley will be performing at there!
Tickets can be purchased at El Galleon, cash only.
