Bituin Cove in Nasugbo Batangas

The Bituin Cove, popularly known locally as Angara Beach Resort, is part of the beautiful town of Nasugbo in Batangas. It's one of the unspoiled beaches in the town which is perfect for beach lovers and adventure seekers. This beach is 3-4 hours away from Metro Manila.



Nasugbo is known for its breathtaking white beaches that attract thousands of foreign and local tourists every year. It's the home of some of the unspoiled beaches, coves, and dive spots in the country.  Most of the time, I recommend beach resorts in this town for special occasions like family outings, birthdays and team building. There are also some great destinations for backpackers and nature lovers like Fortune Island.




If you are planning to travel to Nasugbo and you don't want to spend much of your money, I recommend Bituin Cove. All you need is a boat to reach this white beach and explore some of the hidden destinations near the area.




Baranggay Papaya became famous because of Layag Layag beach which is already closed to the public. This white beach is a perfect destination for campers who want to have a chill vibe and want to escape the busy life in the Metro. No worries, there are lots of beautiful places that you can include on your itineraries like Papaya Island Cove, Taytayin Cove, Pulung Kutad, Kayraang Cove, Layag Layag Lagoon, Santelmo Cove, and Kayraang Cave.


Santelmo Cove is not open to the public. It's only exclusively for Pico De Loro Beach and Country Club members and guests. Near this cove, you can swim along with colorful fishes and have a close-up view with some of the giant clams. The water is very clear and you can see the fish from the boat. Don't forget to bring bread to make sure these fish will swim with you. Please also make sure you're wearing a life jacket if you don't know how to swim.



Aside from Bituin Cove, you can also stay overnight in  Papa Island Cove. The overnight tour is P100.



Indulge in several outdoor activities like swimming, free diving, cliff diving, fish feeding, camping, snorkeling, sunbathing, and a lot more.

Bituin Cove is not an established beach resort. There's no room available in the area, only a tent is your accommodation if you want to stay here overnight. There's a restroom in the area but don't expect too much.

    1. Hi there! Thank you for your inquiries. Yes, they allowed bonfire and overnight stay. There's no market near the cove. I suggest to bing your own food, cooking et and water.
