With all the challenges posed by the pandemic in the past year period, people are now looking for altern ative healthy environments from the crowded spaces of the city. And with summer just around the comer, the siren call of the beach and the sea is proving to be irresistible.

And with good reason: a recent article from the International J o urn al of Hygiene and Environmental Health pointed out that people living close to the ocean have better health than people who don’t.

These health benefits can be directly attributed to “blue space” – the sensual perception of the colors, sound, and motions of water like the sea, lake, or river. Studies have shown that “blue space” relaxes the body in a “blue mind” effect, and along with fresh air and sunshine, boosts the immune system.

With the right scenery, the right shoreline, and the right conditions, some beaches become the perfect place for relaxing and entertaining. Such is the case in Porto Laiya, a beach resort community in San Juan, Batangas.

Developed by the Active Group of Companies, Porto Laiya is envisioned as an affordable option for families to enjoy a serene seaside experience in their own favored retreat that is a leisurely drive from Metro Manila.
