A few days ago we stopped at San Fernando La Union and would like to share with you our impressions. Navigation into the bay is straightforward, just watch for some black buoys and marker indicating fishing kits. The locals stated there is a wreck between the black buoys and the marker, in 20 feet of water.
We drove our dinghy to the beach and asked the local people for help with diesel and water. They delivered everything to our boat by bangka. People are very respectful and friendly, they are very poor but act with such dignity that it is a humbling experience.
Clearance procedures are laid back and without the corruption issues found in Subic Bay. There are no facilities but repairs can be organized through various businesses in town. There are some nice resorts in San Juan and Poro Point that can be accessed by tricycle.
Overall a very pleasant experience and we highly recommend this convenient stop on the way to Taiwan or Palawan. Do not be afraid of the locals, they are great people and willing to help for a little money.
