And with the weather intensifying, we would like to go somewhere to bathe in the sun, sand, and the sea. But those locations are quite far for the urban dwellers like me. However, there is not much white sand beaches near the metro which can par with the common beach destinations and to think they are already crowded with many local and foreign tourists. However, a very great alternative for this is only a 2-3 hour drive from Manila and that is Calatagan, Batangas.
