Burot beach is a remote beach located along the shores of Calatagan, Batangas. It has a stretch of semi-fine cream sand beach kissed by calm waters, beautiful rock formations and dotted with trees. As one of the nice beaches near manila, it's a favorite beach destination among weekenders and those who seek a quick weekend getaway. It's a beach enjoyed most by people who appreciate tranquility, peace and natural beauty.

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 kuya johnny 0921-277-9015 or 0905-226-8839 tricycle
driver 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 130
pesos for an overnight stay. You can also rent a nipa hut (good for 6
to 8), table or tent ranging from 500 to 800 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 (200 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 120 pesos per head. I'm sure you enjoyed the view and the clear
water.

by Private Vehicle
1. From Manila, take Coastal Road or SLEX (South Luzon Express Way).
Drive all the way to Nasugbu, Batangas until you reach a junction or rotonda. At the junction, take the right turn going to Lian; a Caltex Gasoline Station will serve as your landmark.
2. Drive straight ahead. After passing the CADP (Central Azucarera Don
Pedro) Sugar Refinery, take a left at the intersection (Landmarks:
Shell and I-Gas Gasoline Stations).
3. Drive straight ahead. Once you see Sto. Domingo Church, turn right.
4. You'll pass through a small public market (Talipapa), then a cemetery. From there, you'll see signs going to Burot Beach. :)
Note: I will not give any more directions from here, because getting
lost and asking locals where Burot Beach is, are definitely part of
the fun. Try it!
Burot Beach, at last!
Burot Beach was previously called as the Elizalde Beach (owned by the
Elizaldes, an affluent family in the Philippines), but was recently
bought by SM. Now, Burot Beach is a private property of SM Group of
Companies; good news, it is still open for the public until further notice. So, if you're planning to visit Burot, make it soon!

How to Get There
ReplyDeleteBurotBeach is located in Calatagan, a small municipality in Batangas. It is 3-4 hours travel from Metro Manila. You can get there in either public or private transportation.
How to Go to Burot Beach Using a Private Car?
From Manila go south passing Tagaytay and taking the Nasugbu Road.
Upon arriving at the Nasugbu-Lian intersection, take the Lian route and go straight.
After the town Lian, you will reach Calatagan Municipality.
From there, the best thing to do is ask the locals about directions that lead to Burot Beach. I cannot provide the best route to burot beach.
You will enter two gates with guards covered in SM uniforms. You will know that you have already entered a private property. Do not worry, it's still open to the public, unless stated otherwise by the owner.
Things to Remember
Bring a headlamp, flashlight, candle, whatever you please to create a light. There is no electricity in the area.
The little sari-sari store, NOT a convenience store in the area is the only source of commodities available. Do your grocery at the market before heading to the place.
Do not expect a grand accommodation because there is none. There are neither rooms nor decent toilets. You will have to bring your own tent because either of the cottages can give you decent sleep. There is a water supply but I do not think it is potable.
You will see starfishes of different colors and sizes, you can touch them but refrain from bringing them off the shore. They are beautiful; let them live. And so are the other creatures you will see.
You can agree when the boatman offered “island hopping” for Php120.00 per head. Do not, if its beyond that price as what he is offering is really not an island hopping. Yes, he will bring you to away from the shore, but drop you off to the sandbar that appears during low tide.
