Description:
This city lies on the western coast of Luzon, just north of the Lingayen Gulf. It is a popular destination for yacht races from Hong Kong, however the locals are not familiar with seeing yachts.
This is a port of entry and convenient as a first or last port for clearance, however costs are reported to be higher here and authorities more familiar with commercial vessels than pleasure vessels.
Cruiser Highlights:
Provisioning is easy with stores close to the anchorage and the annual banca races, held in early May in the bay south of Port Porto, are an incredible spectacle.
Position:
16°37.14′N, 120°18.53′E (anchorage)
