When the gods showered Batangas with fine sand, Malabrigo was most likely stoned. however somehow it handled to catch tons of pebbles. as well as it’s not a consolation. Ei lainkaan.
A ten-minute tricycle trip across agricultural lands took me to a peaceful seaside neighborhood. The motorist directed to the direction of the shore with someone’s backyard. “That’s the beach,” he said. “Keep left as well as you’ll discover the lighthouse.”
Even from the road, I might already sense the scent of the ocean. Yes, even in spite of the strong odor of fried fish that floated in the air. The owners of the home were having breakfast, al fresco-style.

Stoned Solitude
“Makikiraan po,” I greeted them, who smilingly showed me the way. The noise of the waves’ melodic rumbling grew louder with every step. as well as the ground, it got covered by a lot more as well as a lot more round stones. Never had I seen a pebble beach before, as well as it somehow made me rather nervous. Being accident-prone, I feared that it may be a hazardous territory. (I stumble even on flat ground.) One step as well as then another. The farther I made it, the a lot more the concern faded away. I guided my feet out of my flip-flops as well as let them feel the cobbles. Rough, as expected, however not as well rough to hurt. If anything, there was something therapeutic about it, as though they massaged the soles of my feet. If it wasn’t for the heat, I’d have absolutely ditched the slippers.
I ran across a bed of stones as well as climbed to the top of a gigantic boulder. Malabrigo Point, as this beach is often called, is at the southernmost idea of Batangas. From right here I saw the waves of the hectic Verde Island Passage, rolling to the stony shore. I saw nobody else. This location — this pebbly piece of paradise — was all mine. Kaikki minun.
While a lot of Manila-dwellers flock to the normal beach destinations — Laiya, Anawangin Cove, as well as Puerto Galera — Malabrigo has handled to fly under the radar all these years, preserving its natural appeal as well as excellent state. two things can take credit score for it. One is its location. tucked in a fairly obscure municipality (Lobo isn’t one of the very first towns to find to mind when we believe of Batangas), it can be reached by meandering along mountainsides, an hour from Batangas City as well as a overall of 3 hours from Manila, if you’re quick as well as lucky.
The pebble beach of Malabrigo is not your normal white beach.
Small- to medium-size cobbles comprise this unusual beach
Pebbly Pulchritude
The other reason is littered around its shore. Malabrigo doesn’t have the normal white sand that a lot of beach bums chase. In fact, sand is nowhere to be found, as well as in its stead are small- to medium-size grey as well as white cobbles spread over the beach. No, you won’t see it shine under the sun. No, you won’t discover it pleasurable for rolling (who does that, anyway?). as well as if you like a game of sand-throwing, that’s not gonna occur unless your intent is to murder your playmate. however it is comfortable. comfortable sufficient for other non-sandy beach activities. (Rated GP activities only, needless to say.)
It was like enjoying a high meaning movie. No grains, crystal clear. clearness is its biggest asset. Malabrigo has the clearest waters I have seen in all the destinations around Manila. No sand to muddle it. No grains to scratch its glass-like shimmer. Not near the shoreline, at least. The sea is an ocean of gems. Sapphire as well as emerald colors blend under the Batangan sun.

A walk farther east brought a lot more of the prolonged coastline to view. The pebbles counted on shingles, smaller as well as rougher, with every step up until a little patch of sand made an appearance. Here, on the sand under the shade of an massive rock, I took a break from the difficult ground as well as the warm of the sun. My eyes scanned the area for any type of indication of the lighthouse, however the beach that carefully bends in the distance has nothing. No indication in front of me.
I turned around, as well as there it was. A staircase. Of program it’s on the cliff. What was I expecting? The staircase zigzags on the cliffside to the top, where the lonely beacon stands proudly.

Malabrigo Lighthouse’s official name is Faro de Punta de Malabrigo. however locals just phone call it “parola.”
The lighthouse was recently renovated after a film production team who shot at the location damaged the structure. sees now need permits.
Batangas has two lighthouses: Cape Santiago in Calatagan as well as Punta de Malabrigo in Lobo. Both were part of the Spaniards’ job of illuminating the cRucial merireitit maassa. Malabrigo Parola, kuten paikallisesti tunnetaan, ohjaa merenkulkijoita, jotka käsittelevät Verden saaren kulkua Tayabas Bayen.
Guillermo Brockman loi Malabrigon majakan viktoriaanisen inspiroiman vuonna 1891 samoin kuin kiinalainen urakoitsija Jose Garcia vuonna 1896. Kuten sen Calatagan-kaksoset, majakka on lieriömäinen, valmistettu tiilistä sekä metalliportaat. Se julistettiin kansallisena historiallisena maamerkkinä 27. marraskuuta 2006.
Valmistelin itseni rakenteeseen määrittelemällä huomiotta jättämisen, kuten monilla edessäni tulevista, jotka ovat selittäneet, olivat kuitenkin ilahduttavasti järkyttyneitä, että äskettäin kunnostettu majakka tervehtii. Maali näytti tuoreelta (ehkä noin vuoden ikäiseltä), samoin kuin pastellivärit säteilevät vilkkaasti hallitsevaa valkoista vastaan.
Koska pääkaupunki on lähellä, on melko helppoa uskoa, että olemme nähneet paljon Batangasia. Silti Valiantin (tai kaikkien vuodenaikojen maakunta, jos olet sen kuvernöörin, haha) fani jatkaa matkustajia. Malabrigo on yksi niistä miellyttävistä ilmoituksista. Monin tavoin se on epätavallinen rantakohde: sulje kuitenkin melkein ennenkuulumaton, häiriöttömäksi kuitenkin historiallisesti merkitsevä. Sen kivinen ranta voi olla saatu maku, mutta se varmasti antaa tälle rannikkokylälle erityisen hahmon ja paljon kovemman asenteen. Pelkästään sen lisäksi se tekee siitä nopean loman arvoisen erittäin vähiten.

Kuinka päästä Malabrigoon: Manilasta, nouse linja -autoon Batangas Cityyn ja päästä pois Diversion tai Balagtas (noin P150). Ota jeepney sidottu SM Batangasille tai kolmipyörälle sekä käske autoilijaa vähentää sinua Lobon sidottuun jeepney -terminaaliin. Vie vielä yksi Jeepney Loboon (P53) ja sitten kolmipyörä Malabrigo Beachille.
