     School is out and summer's in? Dont worry because this travel guide will give you ideas how to give the heat some beating!

        Summer is the much awaited season of the students. Aside from having a vacay from academics, it also becomes their season for travelling, having quality time with loved ones and resting their exhausted body and mind from the 10-month venture in school. 

MANUEL UY BEACH RESORT

     Beaching to beat the heat out is a good idea and visiting Manuel Uy Beach Resort in Calatagan, Batangas is a good choice!

    Batangas is well known for its breathtaking diving sites and open beaches. And Calatagan, located at the north-west part of Batangas, is a perfect point of interest for some summer beach getaway. It's even coined "the Maldives of the Philippines". There then can be found the Manuel Uy Beach Resort. It is a three-hour drive from Metro Manila but gazing upon the aesthetic scenario of tranquil sensation from the deep blue water eases the lag from the travel time. What's actually exciting about Manuel Uy is that you get to experience pitching tents (either rented or owned) where you can stay for the whole day or overnight. There are also fun activities such as banana boating and island hopping raging from P100-P150.

       If you're staying overnight, never miss the ever eccentric bonfiring. You just have to pay P40 for the woods and gasoline to flame up the night and you're good to burn those stories out! It's perfect for hotdogs and marshmallows and some midnight realizations too! Go strum the strings, jam with your pals or family and share stories about life and all under the dark-blue starry night.

          Wait, are you having an issue with your budget? Worry no more! Saving P700 to P1,200 is just enough for you to swim your heart out in the beach. The entrance fee is only P50, no parking fees or hidden charges. And going in a group is fun! Aside from having somebody to capture your inner-model moments, you also have somebody to share the expenses with. Indeed a pocket-friendly yet enjoyable trip for summer!

     You also get to meet beautiful people inside and outside. The strangers are not totally strangers in fact, they are friendly and approachable! The island people are also fun to talk with! Their stories are inspiring and the way they view things will influence how you view life.

         Visiting Manuel Uy Beach Resort is more than the captured photographs and money spent. It's actually about the solace you feel deep within upon realizing that you've got a God-given nature to release those toxics out. A day or two outside the city is enough to feel calmness from the embracing breeze of the sea and the relaxing sound whenever the water creeps on the shore. Dont forget that you also have a group of friends whom you can vent your frustrations, joy and heart out, and of course a family whom where ever you may be, as long as you are with them, you are home.

        It is all about the time spent with loved ones and the happiness that comes back. It's about that cloud nine feeling while you have your feet stepping on the golden powdered sand! 

It's about enjoying and seizing the moment you have with the people around you.

       So, are you summer ready now? Start planning with your gals or family and let the travel begin!
