HOW TO GET TO REAL, QUEZON

Driving Manila to Real takes about 90+ kilometers (via Famy - Real - Infanta Road) for 3-4 hours. We used Waze app for directions straight to our accommodation in Poblacion, Real.


For who plans to commute by public transportation, there are daily trips to Infanta, Quezon that passes through Real offered by Raymond Bus from Legarda, Manila. Check available bus seats here!


We started our trip at 6am in Cainta and took the shorter route via Famy - Real - Infanta Road. Along this road, you may opt to stopover to Pililla Windmills in Rizal or one of the overlooking restaurants nearby.


For us, we traveled straight to Real and looked for a restaurant for stopover and have our brunch to continue our trip.



WHERE TO EAT IN REAL, QUEZON

There is a decent choice of places to dine in Real, mostly located along Famy - Real - Infanta Road. For us, we found J&D Eatery, about 20 km away from Real's proper town. They offer Pinoy all-time favorite breakfast, silogs, pares and lomi.

We took a rest, feasted with the food (that are actually good tasting) and recharged for an hour before we hit the road again.


We also brought our own food for our overnight stay at our booked accommodation, then planned to have our final lunch/dinner on our way home the next day.

WHERE TO STAY IN REAL, QUEZON (Tahanan ni MariAlan Resort)

Speaking of our accommodation, Basti (my long time friend and travel bud) booked us a 1-night stay at Tahanan ni MariAlan, one of the newly opened beachfront resorts along the coast of Real. Basti booked our room by contacting them through their Facebook page.


Our room was ideally good for 4 persons but can accommodate up to 6 guests. The room is airconditioned and has 2 double-size beds, in-room restroom with shower, a closet and a dining set (plates, utensils, cups and glasses).

Tahanan ni MariAlan boast their resort with their very own plunge pool with see-through glass. They currently have 3 units available for booking (10am check-in, 9am check out), each have a plunge pool.

The whole resort is surrounded with trees and only steps away from the beach.

OTHER RESORTS TO BOOK IN REAL, QUEZON

Here are other accommodation options located in and nearby Real Quezon:

We arrived at noontime. The resort's staff was nice and easy to talk with. All our needs including use of fridge, kitchen and other amenities were provided throughout our stay. As mentioned above, we brought our own food (they also offer paluto at certain cost), alcoholic drinks were allowed. If you need something, you can ask their staff to buy you stuff for a tip. Overall, our stay at Tahanan ni MariAlan was smooth and satisfying.

There's a videoke for rent, a body massage offered and an island hopping to Baluti.



BALUTI ISLAND

Speaking of Baluti, this island (or a mini-peninsula) is about 20-30 minutes boat ride from our resort, depending on the level of waves. We planned our visit the following morning to spend at least an hour on the island.

Baluti Island

Real is known for having black sand and rocky beach and mostly docked with pump boats by the locals, Baluti on the other hand will give you a peaceful and serene vibe of Real. Our guide brought us to the secluded part of Baluti which undeveloped and not owned by any resorts.

WHAT TO BRING FOR BEACH

Here are some things you might consider bringing with you for your day tour / adventure:
Shopee is my go-to app for things I needed like the ones above. If you'd like discounts and vouchers, you may get the best offers here:

1. Liwliwa Beach

When we think of surfing, we probably instantly think La Union and Baler, which unfortunately is a lengthy trip from the Metro. But this beach can suffice your sun-kissed surfing craving without the long travel outside the metro.

Sitio Liwliwa

The new discovery of surfing enthusiasts might be the solution as Liwliwa Beach is just located in San Felipe, Zambales, inside the sitio called Liwliwa. Just a few hours away from Manila, this is the perfect spot to disconnect from work and all social media interruptions as the signal in the place is quite weak.

Liwliwa beach will surely be enjoyed by surfers and travelers alike because of its amazing waves and uncrowded place. As mentioned by the people who visited the place, Liwliwa is a very “laid-back destination.”

Location: San Felipe, Zambales [ Get Directions ]
Travel time from Manila: 4-5 hours via Subic



2. Burot Beach

Burot Beach is one Catalagan’s unspoiled and hidden beaches, one of the many coves that lace the western coast of Punta de Santiago. It is suggested that you bring your own tents as this place isn’t modernized. You’ll know that you’re near the place when the asphalt road turned into dirt.

Unspoiled Burot Beach

Aside from camping, the best activity to do in this place is island hopping. It has an island with white sand, different star fishes and clear water as you go farther from the island.

Take a whiff of the untouched oasis before the whole metro crowd gets a taste of it. Always remember that the early bird gets to enjoy its beauty first.

There’s no doubt that Zambales is one of the most blessed places in the Philippines as it scopes in different islands which attracts tourists worldwide and one of its most majestic island would be Nagsasa Cove — the island great for camping trips and soul-searching.

Nagsasa Cove

Decades before, Nagsasa cove was full of rocks but Mt. Pinatubo lashes out good amount of ashes that has given the place a more refined look throughout the years. Years after, agoho trees started to grow, many mistake it as pine trees.

Because of nature’s intervention, Nagsasa Cove became a scenery everyone didn’t expect. Your escapade is like going to Boracay and Baguio at the same time.
