    Puerto Galera(white Beach in particular) had become so crowded and so commercialized that you feel there is no beach area anymore. but Aninuan is less crowded and i hope it remain so for sometime. Resort owners should make room/cottage rentals more expensive or prohibitive so that there will be less domestic and foreign tourists. In the late 80’s to the early 20th century, there are nipa cottages but with CRs that costs 500. now you can’t find any on that bracket.
