Last Saturday we went to Burot Beach, Calatagan , Batangas. We have been checking this beach through internet for months but we can’t decide as this is privately owned by SMDC. However, a friend told me about her contact (Mang Ramon- (09156028907)) and we inquired. He said that the beach is still open to public until further notice. With the blogs we read, the travel time for bus is 2-3 hrs. However, our experience is different! We left around 5:00 am from Pasay and arrived 9:45 am at Calatagan Public Market! Almost a 5-hr drive!
TIP: Bus and van rates are BSC liner – P193.00, Celyrosa – P160.00 and van P180.00. They all have terminal in Pasay. For buses: At the back of Mc Donalds (First trip 4:00 am). For vans: At the back of Kabayan Hotel.
As soon as we got there, we bought our baon and looked for a tricycle driver who took us to the beach! Travel time is 15-20 mins.
TIP: Tricycle fares vary from 100-150 pesos. Also, ask the driver to pick you up.
Our plan is day-tour only so we asked the tricycle driver to pick us up at around 3:00pm as the last trip from Calatagan to Pasay is 5:00 pm. If you want to stay overnight, make sure you have a tent or you can rent a tent from Mang Ramon if you don’t have one. 🙂

Hello po.. may contact number po ba kau nung Mang ramon. Plan po sana nmin magpunta sa Burot Beach.. Thank you
Hi, here’s Mang Ramon’s contact number. 09156028907.
Hi Allie, sana hindi pa late ang suggestion ko pero if marami kayong pupunta ng Burot, it would be best to rent a van. Nagpapa-arkila yung mga van sa basement ng Metropoint Mall (EDSA Taft MRT Station). Mas convenient and hatid sundo kayo directly sa Burot Beach for sure. Parang 300/head ata ambagan namin, 17 kami.
advisable ba to bring a car going there? thanks.
Hi! Mas i-advise ko yung malalaking sasakyan like van or pick-up. Rough road kasi dun baka mahirapan pag car ang dala. 🙂
may available parking po ba pag may dalang sasakyan?
Yes, may space for parking. 🙂
Great post! I love Burot, been there a couple of times and it always is pretty 🙂
