Batangas: Ala Eh! Laiya

Sunny Laiya
Fine Sand... check; Awesome views... check; Activities... check; Overnight accommodation... check; Accessibility... check! For s no-fuss with lots of frills weekend trip, Laiya in Batangas is a perfect spot. In fact, amidst arguable opposition, it holds the title of Batangas' Summer Capital.
Shell Pickers
Within a couple of hours from Manila, you will be in some of Batangas' popular beaches from the likes of Nasugbu and Matabungkay but endure a couple of hours more and you will be in a total level-up beach that is Laiya.

Into the Mangrove
Aside from its fine, ash-colored sand, what I like about Laiya is the sweeping view of the beach with different levels of mountain hues such as Mount Daguldol serving as its background.

Blue Shore
Although the place is now teeming with lots of beachside developments, you can still find a secluded cove or quiet places perfect for your reflections. Or if it is activity in the water you are looking for, you can go snorkling or scuba diving.

So, if you have a weekend trip in mind, Laiya in San Juan, Batangas may be the perfect getaway for you.

  10. I've been to Laiya with a big group (with relatives) in 2010 and the experience really marked well on us. It's also one of the reasonably priced destinations.
