FUN BATANGAS PART 2: LEMERY BATANGAS

From our FUN BATANGAS PART 1, we head out to our next destination - A.Santos Paradise Resort in Lemery, Batangas. From Laurel to Lemery, via Agoncillo Road, its a 45 to an hour drive but since the road is under construction that time - well, it's more than an hour drive. At the end of Agoncillo Rd., turn right and the resort is only 500 meters from there. There are not many signage on the road, A.Santos is on the left side before the ice plant.

A.Santos Resort, in my opinion, is the best and affordable resort in that part of lemery beach. I reserved and deposited 50% for a Coco Lodge for P3,000 overnight, the room is basic with 2 queen beds, CR, an old aircon, a veranda and a cemented table and bench right in front of the rooms. There is a free entrance for 4 persons with the room and the rest should pay P70.00/each. They have two swimming pools and an access to the beach.The resort has a very maximize but organized space. The beach is not giving me any pleasure because its a bit crowded and the sand is dark, i never went swimming in that beach but i am looking forward to our island hopping and snorkeling in the morning.
Our Room

Not a good shot but this is the way to the pool 

The Beach

The Black Beach

The rooms and the cottages - near the beach

Ligpo Island - Snorkeling site and they also have accommodation. this is in the middle of the ocean, i can't sleep here.

This is the destination island which is part of Bauan Batangas, it's not white but the sand is a very light brown, a bit rocky but the water is clear and refreshing


This is a private resort where we pay P30.00 each for the use of their beach and shower room. No accommodations,  just for the owners.


Where we stop by to snorkel, this is also a diver's spot
We had a great time with the snorkeling and island hopping which will take 4 hours so start early, the ride alone will take 1.5 to 2 hours back and forth. The boat cost 1,800 for 10 persons. There are may boats you can rent but you can contact our boatman Kuya Michael (09394323667).
