Best Beach less than 5 hours from Manila

**kotiko** · April 7th, 2005 12:48 PM

Got a couple of questions guys...

I'm looking for the best beach we could find in Batangas thats not pricey. I'm considering La Luz or White Cove. Pwede ba dito tumambay sa beach kahit madaling araw? Ok lang ba magsmoke and drink beer diyan kahit lagpas 10pm na? How about the quality of water and sand there? I read also dun sa La Luz kailangan mo magavail ng P800 food package, is this true? Pwede bang hindi? Please give reviews naman about La Luz, White Cove, and other similar ones.

Target namin for this trip is just to relax, with the most minimal people around. Barkada bonding lang, some place na maganda at di magulo.

Meron pa bang ibang choices besides the ones I mentioned? Meron ba kayong alam na mga virgin beaches/islands thats just less than 5 hours away?

Also, a prof of mine told me about "Potipot Island", that is somewhere in Zambales. Google it nalang, looks like a nice place to get away. Meron bang somewhere na less than 5 hours away from Manila na parang get-away beach without fees or anything? Yung tipong gastos mo lang yung boat papunta dun? Have any of you guys discovered such places? Yung maganda beach.

Thanks guys! Planning to go the 1st week of May.

How about Baywatch resort in Real, Quezon?

The most hazardous beach in Quezon.
That was our favorite spot hangout during the late 90's.

Odell,
Despite the fact that there are many dead people washed a shore by the recent typhoon in that part of the region, Real Quezon is known for unpredictable waves and underwater trenches. Almost every year, lots of tourists end up 6 feet under. Be careful as you are against the Pacific Ocean.
