Dear Friend,
If you are still looking for a beach where you want to spend your Summer holidays, I suggest you go for Batangas. This is one of the most popular tourist destinations near Manila. The province also has many beautiful beaches and diving spots including Matabungkay in Lian. Matabungkay is just 2-3 hours away from Manila. Take SLEX and exit at Sta Rosa, then drive straight ahead to Batangas. (toll fee is just 175pesos). Ofcourse, I will share you some of my photos to support my claim. So please enjoy! :)
Again, enjoy & have a safe trip ahead.

I know you have this question on your mind, "What to do in Matabungkay?" Well, aside from beach bumming, you can rent a Balsa and party all you want inside the Balsa. This costs around 2-3kphp, this is good for 10pax. If you want to try snorkeling, there are boats for rent for only 2kpesos. This includes guggles and float jackets. The boat ride is good for 10pax. There are rooms/houses for rent from 3,500-6k overnight. If you can't find or book on the internet, rest assured that as soon as your feet step on Matabungkay sands, someone will approach you and offer you a house/room.
Again, enjoy & have a safe trip ahead.
