INVESTING IN ECOTOURISM IN BATANGAS

VERDE PASSAGE
CALATAGAN

Calatagan still has large tracts of land ideal for resort development. Further, the municipality has seen very little tourism development in the past many years. It is only recently that pioneer investors have congregated in the area. Further, the strict development guidelines implemented in the municipality can be regarded as a safety measure to help ensure that the quality of the environment and potential tourism resources are maintained.
