A Nature Trip to Batangas: Exploring the Beauty of the Outdoors with My Boyfriend

Batangas, a province in the Philippines known for its stunning landscapes and natural wonders, became the perfect destination for a memorable nature trip with my boyfriend. We were both eager to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse ourselves in the tranquility and beauty of the great outdoors. Our journey to Batangas promised breathtaking views, exciting adventures, and cherished moments together.

Our first stop was Taal Volcano, a unique and picturesque destination that captivated our hearts from the moment we laid eyes on it. We embarked on a boat ride across Taal Lake, feeling the cool breeze against our faces as we marveled at the stunning view of the volcano rising majestically from the water. The hike up to the crater was an exhilarating experience, with each step revealing more of the breathtaking landscape. Standing at the edge of the crater, we were in awe of the panoramic view that stretched out before us. The sight of the emerald-green lake nestled within the volcanic crater was truly a sight to behold.

Next on our itinerary was a visit to the enchanting Laiya Beach. The powdery white sand and crystal-clear waters beckoned us to dive in and embrace the serenity of the ocean. We spent hours swimming, snorkeling, and simply basking in the warmth of the sun. As the day turned into evening, we sat on the beach, hand in hand, watching the vibrant colors of the sunset paint the sky. It was a moment of pure bliss, feeling the sand between our toes and the gentle waves lapping at our feet.

Our nature trip wouldn't have been complete without exploring the lush beauty of Mt. Maculot. We embarked on a challenging hike, navigating through dense forests and rocky terrains. As we ascended, the panoramic views of Batangas unfolded before us, rewarding our efforts. Reaching the summit, we were greeted by a breathtaking vista of rolling hills, verdant landscapes, and the sparkling waters of Taal Lake in the distance. It was a moment of triumph and awe, reminding us of the beauty and power of nature.

To further immerse ourselves in the natural wonders of Batangas, we ventured into the enchanting world of Anilao's underwater paradise. Equipped with snorkeling gear, we explored the vibrant coral reefs teeming with colorful marine life. Swimming alongside schools of fish and witnessing the intricate beauty of the coral formations left us in awe of the wonders that lie beneath the surface.

Throughout our nature trip in Batangas, we were not only surrounded by the beauty of nature but also by the warmth and hospitality of the locals. From the friendly boatmen who guided us to Taal Volcano to the locals who shared stories and recommendations, their genuine kindness added an extra layer of joy to our journey.

As our nature trip in Batangas came to an end, we couldn't help but feel grateful for the unforgettable experiences we shared. The beauty of the landscapes, the adventures we embarked on, and the moments of tranquility we found in nature will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Our trip to Batangas reminded us of the importance of taking a step back from our busy lives and reconnecting with the beauty and serenity of the natural world. It was a journey that not only strengthened our bond but also rejuvenated our spirits, leaving us with memories that will last a lifetime.

TRAVELOGUE-

On February 10, 2024, we left and went to a beautiful place in Batangas for an outing. The journey was a bit of a hassle since we only had motorcycles and there were many of us in the family, but that day, we opted for motorcycles over cars. It was fun just traveling and seeing the sights along the way, and of course, feeling the breeze even though it was hot. When we arrived at MASASA BEACH BATANGAS, it greeted us a place home to beautiful and captivating views. Their place was very clean, and the people were friendly. They also showed us their pride, the well-maintained bathing area or beach.

After we finished exploring their beautiful place, they invited us to explore the towns of Batangas to witness its colorful history and culture. We toured the churches full of history, such as the Basilica ng Taal and San Jose Parish Church, showcasing the richness of religion and architecture in the region. Here, I also got to try local dishes like Batangas Lomi and Bulalo, which brought joy to my taste buds because they were incredibly delicious.

Over the next two days, we visited famous beaches in Batangas like Nasugbu and Laiya, where I was delighted by the white sand and clear water.

Finally, we went to resorts in Batangas to rest and relax. Here, I found the peace and tranquility I was looking for.

In our journey to Batangas, I didn't just explore beautiful sceneries and attractions, but I also got to learn about its history, culture, and people filled with humility. It was an experience full of wonder and appreciation for the richness of the Philippines.

Travelogue | Chasing Waves 

By:Jacquielyn Tuazon 

I wanna Tour you, From Where I Left my heart in the sand. a Deepest blue i have ever seen, a Paradise Where I can Chase the waves. This is were it began A place that is peaceful in its own ways.

If you Ask me, what is a good place for me? It is the place to go to get away from all my troubles. It is the one place where I could sit forever, and never get tired of just staring into the deepest blue I have ever seen. 

It is the place where I can sit and think the best. With their warm sand and gentle waves, beaches have a soothing ambiance that nothing can beat. There's simply no better place to let go of daily stress than on the beach. 

They say salt water heals everything, And I agree. Watching waves reminds me Of strength from the wild air. And Ive learned that You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.

We also tried Kayak, at first I was scared because of the waves that, but after I've tried it, I knew it is fun to tried kayaking.  I cannot believe myself on how do I get through the waves in Kayak. After that incredible adventure of mine I felt good. Near water is incredibly beneficial for my mental health. Kayaking eases my anxiety, reduces depression, and believe me or not It increases my self esteem.

If only I can turn back time I would want to stay and feel the moment when I was in calayo. 

Batangas first came to be known as Bonbon. It was named after the mystical and fascinating Taal Lake, which was also originally called Bonbon. Calayo beach is knowned beach and one of the most beautiful beaches in Batangas, thanks to its white sand and clear waters. Similar to Boracay's Puka Beach, parts of Laiya Beach also feature bits of crushed shells.

We went to Laiya Coco Grove Beach Resort in Batangas last April 2016. I was actually thinking to come back there again with my husband this summer. Unfortunately, they closed for redevelopment last July 2018 as per their Facebook page. Until now, there’s still no advice if when they will open again. Although the beach resort is not in operation as of the moment, I still decided to blog about it for memories’ sake.

We actually had a great time in that place. It was kind of a long trip though. We stayed there overnight and enjoyed their buffet. It’s actually the food that we enjoyed there the most.

HOW TO GET THERE FROM MANILA:

From Cubao, you are going to ride a bus to San Juan, Batangas.  Take the ALPS Bus. The fare costs more or less 200php per person. 

From San Juan, right in front of the Municipal Hall, either you ride a Laiya or Hugom-bound jeepney, or a tricycle bound to Laiya. We chose to ride a tricycle and we spent 150php because it was really a long trip. The trike directly brought us to the entrance of Laiya Coco Grove. Riding a jeep is cheaper.

ROOM RATES: I already forgot the room rates but the photo below shows all the details of our booking. 

I booked for a couple cabin online which was ₱2, 164.50/night.  Here are the inclusions:

Air-conditioned rooms with own Toilet and Bath (Cabin Room Accommodation and SHARED bath)

Towels and toiletries

Managed buffet dinner, breakfast, and lunch upon check out

Free use of WiFi

Free use of the beach, swimming pool, and cabanas

Use of White Beach facility

Use of playground and volleyball area

Board games like Scrabble, chess, monopoly, etc.

TERMS AND POLICIES:

  BEACH: They have two beaches. The first one is in the area and the so-called “White Beach” is like a few blocks away. You can hardly enjoy swimming at their beach because it is stony. That is why the management suggests going to White Beach instead. They offer free van-ride to their guests so you don’t have to worry about traveling back and forth. 

Laiya Coco Grove Beach

Laiya White Beach

POOL: They also have a swimming pool which is available until the evening. At some time during the day, it is closed for cleaning. 

Laiya Coco Grove Swimming Pool

FOOD: We availed their lunch and dinner buffet so we don’t have to worry about what and where to eat. They served a variety of Filipino food and fruit juice. I can say that eating at their buffet was what we enjoyed the most. We just bought some food for the snack like the halo-halo and potato chips. 

STAFFS: The staffs were accommodating. We were welcomed warmly and escorted to our room by the attendant. The van driver who brought us to White Beach and fetched as after was nice and friendly, We were accommodated accordingly. 🙂

OTHER OPTIONS: Staying in Laiya Coco Grove Beach Resort was really an awesome experience. We would always want to go back. It actually saddened me when I found out that they closed for redevelopment. On the other hand, it led me to search for other beach resorts in Laiya. So if you are planning to spend your summer in Laiya, Batangas here are some suggestions for you.

About two hours from Manila via the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX), Club Laiya provides a unique glamping (glamorous camping) experience for those who don’t want just the usual overnight…

[talkaboute]

Canyon Cove is located in Nasugbu, Batangas. This was my second time to visit the place. I normally don't go anywhere twice but we were looking for a great beach in Batangas. Caliraya, Laiya and Nasugbu came into mind but I want a shore that's not rocky or at least swim without the need for a boat to take them somewhere to do so. So I thought of why not here? Taste of their food is not bad, almost white fine sand, great beach cove, relaxing pool. Belgian colleagues aporoved. 👍✔😉 (at Canyon Cove) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5JMiB6HzRf/?igshid=vjs3vhatqb5q

Nature Hopping On Summer Days

Don't be stranger in your very own land. The Philippines which is a peninsula is composed of 7, 641 islands and islets. Let's start exploring. The three major islands are Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Explore Mindanao and see for yourself it's natural beauty of the following Dakak Beach Resort, Dapitan City, ZaNorte, Samal Island, Davao del Norte and Sta. Cruz Island, Zamboanga City. In Visayas visit the following destinations Limasawa Island, Limasawa, Southern Leyte, Sumilon Island, Oslob, Cebu and Boracay Island, Aklan and lastly here in Luzon explore the beaches of Laiya Beach, Batangas, Fortune Island, Batangas and Masasa Beach, Tingloy.

One of the most suggested tourist spot here in Luzon is found in Tingloy, Batangas known as Masasa Beach. Only three to four hours of travel from Manila, Masasa is one of the most accessible beach. Masasa Beach is found in the southern portion of Tingloy Island, a fifth class municipality in the province of Batangas. Tingloy is consisting of the radish shaped Maricaban Island, Caban Island and so many minor islets. It is located south of the Calumpang Peninsula in between mainland Batangas and the island of Mindoro.

Masasa Beach is considered the jewel of Tingloy, Batangas. Though located in the fift class municipality of Batangas. Masasa is so precious because of what it can offer to the visitors. The truth is, the sand here isn’t as pearly white as what you would expect in Boracay or Palawan, but what Masasa Beach lacks in the brightness of its sand it makes up for in the vibrance of waves. Its crystal clear, shallow waters give off a beautiful turquoise shimmer, something that will catch your attention even from a great distance. You can do the following activities such as Beach bum and swim, Snorkelling, Go island hopping and Trek to Mag-asawang Bato. See for yourself the real wonder of Masasa Beach go island hopping and visit Oscar Beach, Tawil Point, Sepoc Point, Lagoon and Sombrero Island.  The natural beauty of Masasa can be found on the marine life itself. Since, it is an unexploited island you can still found the most uncommon marine creatures and the beach itself.

Laiya is one of Manila’s closest beach. Just hop on a bus from any major terminals in the metro, and then within 3 to 4 hours, you will find yourself photo bombing the picture-perfect ivory strip of Batangas province. Laiya is also close the Batangas’ tastiest lomihan and gotohan, so don’t forget to drop by during your visit.

Just another jump shot fail

Batangas showcases a wide range of beaches: white, black, deep, shallow, and what-not. But the most family-friendly beaches are mostly found in Calatagan and Laiya in San Juan.

Be teleported and travel back through time as you venture this quaint town located at the poblacion of Taal. Their Main attractions are the well-preserved old buildings that were constructed during the Spanish colonial period that were transformed and reused as museums.

While on your way to and from Taal, just along the Diokno highway, you will definitely notice the palaces, castles, and towers of the Fantasy World. It was meant to be an amusement park along with residential and hotel complexes originally planned to be the local version of Disneyworld, until investment prospects went bad.
