taken during my vacation last march, i found this view deck along the coast line of laiya batangas,
Information about the place is as follows..
The Laiya shoreline is quite long. We estimate it to be about 5km or even more. But what you may want to know is that the eastern half of the shoreline has different "sand/water" characteristics from the western half. The eastern half, the half that is roughly 2km before ,and up to, Laiya town proper has very fine sand and the shore slopes very gradually. The very gradual slope of the shore, the fine sand and the calm water make it an ideal "swimming" area for people who simply want to enjoy a good swim on a beach. The very fine sand however, tends to make the water murky ,very murky, especially during high tide. The western part on the other hand ,right after Laiya town and up to Hugom, is for people who like to go snorkeling, scuba diving or fishing. It has coral reefs and marine life that could rival what you can experience from the shores of Anilao. For those who are interested, a fish sanctuary is located in front of one of the resorts on the west end ,La Luz beach resor. Here, guests can go snorkling and actually see good marine life from waters barely a meter deep and just 20 meters from shore.
