Beaches in the Visayan seas are really to die for! But if you live in Manila, can they be reached by a car in less than 3 hours? Here are your weekend getaway beaches, doable almost every week!
Anilao
Balayan Bay, Mabini, Batangas
Famous for snorkeling and diving, Anilao boasts diverse marine biodiversity. Stones and corals are scattered all over the beach so you don't sit on them to soak up the sun, you dip in the waters and feed the fishes. After climbing Mt. Gulugod Baboy, it is best to refresh here.

Laiya
Tayabas Bay, San Juan, Batangas
Much like it's cousin Anilao but a long stretch of sandy shore can be seen here. After trekking Mt. Daguldol, take dip or perhaps play beach volleball! Batangas beaches, like Laiya, are the nearest beaches away from home.

| Corals and shells are everywhere |

| Rocks, corals and shells... and me! |
