Are you planning a weekend getaway? One of the go-to places atop most lists is Batangas. The latter has plenty of sandy shores for a relaxing trip. Calatagan is a good option for you because it is accessible from the cities surrounding it (including Manila), it has beautiful and idyllic beaches, and you have plenty of choices.
For many budget travelers, Calatagan is known as a camping destination. Back when Burot Beach was still open to the public, it attracted weekend warriors from all directions. These days, the go-to camping destination is Manuel Uy Beach Resort, which is pocket-friendly.

No matter what your budget is; research about the accommodation before making a reservation. It may be too far from the beach or is difficult to access (especially, if you’re using public transportation). Also, find out if there are nearby places to eat, if you don’t plan to bring your own food and drinks.
