Our group had an unexpected trip
to this beautiful place in Calatagan, Batangas. Since our group wants a last
shot outing for summer, we decided to have a beach trip. Our original plan was
a weekend getaway to Laiya Batangas but as per my inquiry to several resorts
there, they were all fully booked so we ended up searching for new destination
in Batangas and found out about this secluded white sand beach in Calatagan,
Batangas known as Burot Beach.
Burot Beach in Calatagan Batangas,
formerly known as "Elizalde beach" but now a private property of SM Group of
Companies is an undeveloped, unspoiled and peaceful beach. Getting there from
Alabang is roughly 3 hours drive passing by Tagaytay and towns of Lian, Balayan
and Calatagan Batangas. It’s still open
for public so if you’re planning to visit the place, make it soon before SM
totally close the property to construct a Beach resort and Golf Course.
Before going to Burot Beach, you
must first get in touch with Mang Cesar (+63915-6028907) the caretaker of this
private property that can help you in renting tents and other additional
queries. It’s your choice if you want to
stay for just a day tour trip which will cost you 65 pesos only while 120 pesos for an overnight stay. You can also rent a nipa hut (good for 6
to 8), table or tent ranging from 200 to 300 pesos. No need to worry if you are
bringing your own vehicle because the whole place is so spacious that you can
even park your car beside the nipa hut of your choice and most of all parking
is free. Cottages and rooms are not available in the area so if you are
planning to have an overnight stay make sure you have your tents with you
otherwise you can rent some tents for 300 pesos. Moreover, there is no electricity in Burot
beach but there are available bonfire woods (250 pesos per bundle) that you can
use to be your light the whole night. Two
public toilets and two showers are available in the area but with slow flowing faucet.
Since Burot beach is now discovered by many, I do hope that management can add
more toilet facilities for visitor’s convenience. Also be ready if some fishermen will offer you an island hopping to the nearest sand bar for 40 pesos
per head. Too bad it’s already high tide when we got there but still we enjoyed
the view and the clear water.

Just a friendly reminder, there
is a sari sari store in the area where you can buy some drinks and the like but
it’s too pricey so better buy all your needs at Calatagan public market just
after Sto. Domingo Church before heading to Burot beach. You may also bring
your own food to cook, drinking water, ice box and grilling/cooking equipment
to complete your beach bum experience.
Here’s the direction going to
Burot Beach in 2 ways:
By private vehicle
1. From
Manila, drive all the way to SLEX (South Luzon Express Way) until you reach the
expressway after Alabang junction. Straight ahead and exit to Eton Greenfield.
From here you will pass by Nuvali Sta. Rosa and Tagaytay City. Drive all the
way to Nasugbu, Batangas until you reach a junction then take the right turn
going to Lian. Drive straight ahead.
2. After
passing the CADP (Central Azucarera Don Pedro) Sugar Refinery, take a left at
the intersection (Landmarks: Shell and I-Gas Gasoline Stations). Drive ahead to
reach Sto. Domingo Church then turn right. You will pass by a public market
then turn left in M. Apacible Street. From here you can also ask some tricycle
drivers or locals that will pass by for clear directions. But most likely you will see rough road on
your right side that leads to a cemetery and an eco center. Drive straight until
you reach a gate with uniformed security guard that will count the number of visitors.

By Commute
1. You can hunt for buses in Starmall Alabang en route Nasugbu
Batangas that will pass by Calatagan. You can also found a Bus Terminal located
along EDSA near MRT Taft Station (at the back of McDonald's and Sogo Hotel)
bound for Calatagan. Travel time is approximately 3 to 4 hours. Don’t forget
to ask the conductor to drop you off at Calatagan Market. Then, at Calatagan
Market, you can hire a tricycle that will bring you to Burot beach for
Php150.00 or Php60.00 per person.
Aside from boasting a cream fine sand and pristine waters, Burot Beach offers a gorgeous view of the sunset.

relaxation and perfect way to end summery days! So, if you're planning to visit

DeleteHow much po ang aabutin ng gas from Baclaran to Calatagan back and forth?
ReplyDeleteNaku pasensiya na po di ko po mabibigay ang eksaktong gas na nakonsumo namin. Depende din po siguro sa sasakyan. Yung gamit po namin Urvan at hindi po kami nakaubos ng isang full tank balikan na yun Alabang to Calatagan/Calatagan to Guadalupe Makati siguro po mga kalahati or 3/4 lang. Mga 800 to 1k na gas po siguro kasi 1800+ po ang full tank nung van
Deletehi! just want to know if open pa din siya until now? my friends and i are planning to go there sana this march.. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteSa pagkakaalam ko bukas pa din po siya till now. Enjoy your Burot Beach trip =D

jan namin plano mag YOUTH SUMMER TEAM BUILDING ACTIVITY , at kung may mbibilhan po ba ng souvenirs jan .
ahm , xka may available cottages po ba o tent lang po talga ?
salamat sa magrereply .
Hello, Vergel. Very narrow, rough road yung daanan from Calatagan town proper to the beach property itself; hindi yun kakayanin ng bus. Wala ring bilihan ng souvenirs from the place. It's a very small beach for 100 people. 2 lang ang shower na pambabae, at 2 lang rin na panlalaki. There are only 3 toilets in the vicinity. As for cottages, I remember seeing only 3-4.
DeleteYou can opt to leave the bus sa Calatagan town proper and ride the trikes to the Elizalde property. You can also rent smaller vehicles (e.g., vans) para makarating sa beach.

ReplyDeleteask ko lang po magkano bus fare galing pasay? tsaka lahat ng expences ng transpo as of now. thanks alot!
ReplyDeleteBus fare from Pasay is usually 196 pesos to 200+ then trike fare from Calatagan market to Burot beach is 150 pesos per trip good for 2 to 3 then 200 pesos for 4 =)

Deletehi. gusto namin pumunta ngaun...crowded ba sya today or pwede pa. good for 15 people? overnight sana kami..tska kamusta ang toilet or banlawan? overnyt sana...
ReplyDeleteSa ngayon siguro di pa masyado crowded probably by next week pagpasok ng Holy week dadami na po siguro pupunta doon. Ang banlawan at toilet po nung huling punta namin June last year ay 2 shower lang tapos 2 toilet and medyo mahina ang tubig. Hopefully dinagdagan na nila yun sa ngayon =)
Deletegusto po sna namin magpunta dyan on april 20 abot 20 persons po kami family and friends po kc pano po ang way papunta sarili po nmin ang sasakyan through slex po san po ang madaling daan
