Stilts Calatagan Beach Resort in Calatagan, Batangas, Philippines

We traveled from Manila to Calatagan, Batangas, on December 23, 2023, to visit their lovely beach. Our major goal is to visit a public beach; unfortunately, I believe that practically all of the beaches in Calatagan are privately owned. We decided to visit the Stilt Calatagan Beach Resort when we got to Calatagan because we didn't know where else to go. Our driving experience has been poor; when we get to Santo Tomas, Waze directs us to a road that is both narrow and winding around the mountainside.

To be honest, the road leading to the beach isn't all that great. However, when you arrive at the beach, you will just exclaim, "Wow." From the main road, go on a bumpy road until you reach the beach's gate and entrance. We simply went out to gaze and enjoy our surroundings after parking our automobile. We then inquired about the beach with a guard on duty and were astonished to learn that the entrance fee is OMG 700 pesos ($41.48) per person. I'm apprehensive about walking into the beach and discussed it with my project manager; she's looking for a public beach where we can just relax and enjoy the landscape. However, because my project manager is also tired of the journey, she opted to pay the admission price. The personnel then aided us; we signed the document provided to us to write on and were given a wrist band as proof that we had already paid the entrance charge.
