WOOOOOO! SAN AABOT ANG 1000 PESOS MO?
That also left my head baffled. But hey, let us have a little discussion about this place, yea?
Not so far from Manila is a beautiful beach located at the southern part of Batangas. A 4-hour bus and boat ride will bring you to Tingloy, Batangas where the royal beach of Masasa is located. It has a clear inviting water, very relaxing surrounding and a place that is serene, enough for relaxing!
How to get there?
If you're in manila, DLTB buses in Buendia terminal offers a trip going to Batangas terminal. From there, ride a jeepney bound to the port in Anilao then tell the driver to drop you at Talaga port then ask for the boats bound to Tingloy island. From Tingloy port ride, ride a tricycle going to Masasa beach. You will be dropped off near the rice fields, 10-15 minute walk away from the beach.
When you get there, if you have a tent, CAMP OUT! IT WILL BE FUN! But if you have a budget then there are kubo rentals there that cost 200 pesos per head. If you would like to have a room of your own, the rate starts at 700 good for two persons. You would have your own comfort room and kitchen. For larger group accommodation, a two-storey Bahay Kubo that can house 20-30 guests. The rate starts at 2000 pesos depending on the number of the guests.
Total expenses:
- Bus (Manila to Batangas grand terminal): 157php/head
- Jeep (BGT to Talaga port): 37php/head
- Passenger boat (going to Tingloy Island): 65php/head
- Tricycle (to Masasa Beach): (60php/ride) devided by 2 = 30php/head/ride
Total transportation: 289php/head x 2 = 578php/head round trip
- Accommodation: 200php/head
- Food: 220php/head
TOTAL: 998php
That leaves you 2 pesos. Bili ka nalang ng candy HAHAHAHAHA
