At the very first left curve after this stretch, you will see a road that branches downward to the right, away from the main road. Take this road downwards towards the town of Calayo.

Commuting to Calayo Beach
From Pasay, Buendia-Taft or Cubao, board a bus bound for Nasugbu, Batangas. The fare is P160-180. Travel time is about two to 3 hours, depending on traffic situation. Alight at Nasugbu Bus Terminal (town proper), you have the option to ride a tricycle or a jeepney to Barangay Calayo.
If your group is composed of two to four persons, you can hire a tricycle to take you to Calayo Beach for P300. This is fair since Calayo is more or less half an hour from the town center. If your group is big, you can hire a jeepney. Negotiate the cost based on the size of your group or the vehicle. (Directions from PhilippineBeache

Please note, Calayo Beach is a wide beach and there are two road entrances to the beach area. Coming from Nasugbu town, you will have to take the second road (northern entry) to enter the town. After you pass the first road (southern entry), continue on up the mountain road until you get to a bend in the road marking the second entry to Calayo Beach.
