About Muelle Bay
Muelle Bay is a central coastal bay in Poblacion, Puerto Galera, Oriental Mindoro, Philippines, adjacent to Muelle Pier, the town's main ferry port. It serves as the gateway for visitors arriving from Batangas and features a curved shoreline with boats, waterfront establishments, dive shops and restaurants. While not primarily a swimming beach due to boat traffic, it is notable for its accessibility, views of the Verde Island Passage, and proximity to the town center and other beaches.
Visitors guide
Visitors to Muelle Bay can expect a busy harbor bay with a small sandy and pebbly shoreline, anchored by Muelle Pier where passenger ferries and bangka boats dock. The waterfront is lined with restaurants, dive shops, souvenir stores, and accommodation. The area offers views of the bay, moored boats, and the Verde Island Passage. It is primarily a transit and dining area rather than a swimming beach, with a promenade for walking, sightseeing and photography.
