Ronco Beach
Filed under The Traveler
Ronco Beach is in Calatagan, Batangas and I would not forget this place not because of the place but because of being able to watch the sun as it rises which I was not able to do when I was in Puerto Galera simply because I was too lazy to get up.
We slept in the tent because there are no available rooms and I could say that it is worth the experience (even though this may have caused us not to sleep well) having able to watch the sun rise. It’s good that the hermit crabs were not able to get inside the tent though 
.
During our stay in the resort we were able to meet and interact with the owner Willie del Rosario (uncle of Andrea del Rosario). We’ve had discussions relating to the evolution of technology and communication, and of course, some vintage stuff that I have not heard of. I could say that they are really nice and very accommodating.

What a beautiful photo! I wish I could watch more sunrise, but like you I can’t wake up early. I am now in my sunset years and so obviously, I love watching the beautiful sunsets. I am an artist too.

Ayos pala ‘yung lugar. Napaglumaan na lang talaga ng panahon ‘yung sunset/sunrise view sa Baywalk…

Nice in photos but not in reality. I went there with my whole family and gosh we are very disappointed. Ang ganda kasi online sa mga nakita ko sa flickr photos pero iba pag andun ka na. Now I know why when I called it’s the only resort not fully booked yet. Maybe nice views but the beach water is very dirty and not even a white beach. And it’s the last resort of calatagan i think as in. You could see goose walking together and one reason why the beach is dirty. Takot pa naman ako sa ganso kasi nanghahabol. And I even didn’t try to swim there because my brother when he went to swim he saw a sea snakes so di nya na tinuloy pagswim. Di naman daw yun delikado kaya lang lalagnatin ka rin sa hapdi pag nakagat ka. My dad told me it’s because of the many dried seaweeds and mabato ay naku why ba di nila linisan palagi. Kakatakot naman lumangoy talaga promise! Well try nyo… to see is to believe di ba? Ang maganda lang dun buti na lang yung mini pier nila nagpictorial lang ako dun as in. But one thing I learned from this experience… don’t easily believe what the resort is showing online.
