When In Manila Search

Subic bay yacht club – premier luxury only 2 hours away from manila.

When in Manila, it’s easy to get crammed into the rat race that citizens know as daily life. Work, home, work and home again. During the rainy season, that cycle becomes even more monotonous and dreary from grey skies and tons of traffic.

Everyone is always looking for an ‘out’, somewhere they can go to escape and enjoy life. As a travel writer and corporate professional, I constantly look to find new places to explore. I love the water, so when I travel, I do it near the sea. Last weekend, I found one of the most impressive places I’ve ever experienced.

I was invited to the Subic Bay Yacht Club for a 2-day 2-night relaxing experience at the club. I drove up for the weekend with my girlfriend, and this is what happened. Now, I’ve been a lot of places in the world, but Subic Bay Yacht Club is one of the top resorts I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at.

Upon arrival, we pulled up to see the amazing facilities situated right on Subic Bay. The location is phenomenal and history surrounds the area.

Subic Bay Yacht Club

The resort is nestled below the Zambales Mountain range on the tranquil Subic Bay that opens into the South China Sea. Check out the stunning views:

The Facility itself is a haven for vacationers. The area is surrounded with warm hospitality and an elegant design.

 The views from every room are outstanding and the temperature and details are perfect.

View From The Rooms

The hotel has a great restaurant called Cambusa, as well, which offers a fusion of Italian and Asian food. The menu is extensive and the chefs are professionally trained.

Buffet At Subic Bay Yacht Club

The hotel also has a music lounge and club that is open on the weekends.

The resort also has a chartered yacht service from La Banca Travel and Tours. Reservations have to be made two days before the tour and the minimum time rental is 2 hours.

Other activities at the club include a cruising tour, a Grande Island tour, snorkelling, swimming and fishing.

Marina View at Subic Bay Yacht Club

They have a 2,500-square-meter swimming pool that faces the Marina. It’s a beautiful relaxing area that makes you feel like you are in paradise.

A bayutiful stay at subic bay yacht club.

Quietly settled in Olongapo, Zambales, Subic Bay is probably one of the most popular bays in the country and is referred to as the safest and deepest bay in the whole Pacific Isle. With a view of yachts in still parade, a bayutiful stay is guaranteed at Subic Bay Yacht Club.

Subic Bay Yacht Club

Just a three-hour drive from Manila, Subic Bay Yacht Club offers that home-away-from-home atmosphere. Exclusive for members, I appreciate a getaway in the place because of its cozy ambiance minus the bunch of crowd. I was fortunate to stay for a night at Subic Bay Yacht Club when I attended a social media marketing workshop conducted by Tag Media & Public Relations.

The moment we get off of our van, the first thing that caught my attention from afar is the procession of beautiful yachts. The view of the yachts just across the entrance of Subic Bay Yacht Club gives me a stimulating feeling making me forget of the busy city life.

Getting in, a stunning staircase set on a nicely designed floor signals a night of relaxation and comfort. From the reception area, the hotel provides a huge lobby for guests. If you go to the second floor, a more spacious one is available with a grand piano on display. You can get here a magnificent view of the yachts outside.

Ending our day, we had some short and intimate socials where we talked about goals, dreaming, the power of positivity and the law of attraction. I learned a lot from the group especially from Ms. Grace Bondad-Nicolas, COO and founder of Tag Media.

After a few drinks, I look forward to finally hitting the hay!

Hit the Hay

Going to my room on the third floor, I’d pass by a small living room area.

With a dim light, the deluxe, air-conditioned room is more than spacious for four people. Having two largely-sized beds all for myself, I can jump from one bed to another. A television set, a dressing area, cabinets and complimentary drinks are all provided.

Soft pillows and warm comforter – I couldn’t ask for more! I’m a very appreciative person even when I was younger but now more than ever, I increased my gratitude level to even a greater extent. And the soothing bed in my room is more than happiness to me! I actually fell asleep within the first five minutes I landed on the bed. View from the window room is the main road but surprisingly, I was not distracted by any noise from the street. The quiet night spoiled me even more.

Waking up really the next day, a warm bath helped me prepared for a brand new set of activities. Aside from a non-negotiable clean bathroom, a hot shower is always a must for me especially on cold mornings.

The bathroom is huge with a jacuzzi – which is standard in all rooms – and a complete set of toiletries.

Ready to embrace another wonderful day, I went down to the hotel’s restaurant to have breakfast with my fellow workshop participants.

On the Plate

You don’t get a buffet breakfast with an unlimited brewed coffee (important for coffee addict like me) everyday and Subic Bay Yacht Club offers one for PHP499 from 7AM – 10AM. Making your breakfast even more delightful is the view of the yachts outside. What a way to start the day!

Don’t expect an overly wide assortment of food in the buffet. But I think they have a good combination of food to choose from including breads, cereals and usual breakfast favorites like egg omelette, tocino, tapa and chicken.

Swimming Pool

Because of the membership required at Subic Bay Yacht Club, you’ll enjoy more the use of facilities like swimming pool. In the past years, the tourism industry seems to be booming a lot where people are really into taking vacations making some popular destinations crowded. And this sometimes steals the relaxation you are seeking. Utmost privacy is one of the things I like most about Subic Bay Yacht Club.

SUBIC TRAVEL GUIDE with Budget Itinerary

When I talked to a number of people and asked them about Subic , what I found out was quite astonishing. Many of them thought that Subic and Clark are one and the same. So just so we’re clear, Subic and Clark are two different areas. I think the confusion stems from the fact that both have “freeport zones”. Clark Freeport Zone (CFZ) is a former US air force base (Clark Air Base), while the Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ) is a former US naval base (Subic Bay Naval Base). Both have been converted to massive business and recreation centers.

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?

UNDERSTANDING SUBIC

Subic is a town in the province of Zambales . Located along Subic Bay , the municipality is known for maritime industry and logistics and warehousing services. The Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ) covers the municipality of Subic and city of Olongapo in Zambales and the municipalities of Morong and Hermosa in Bataan. The conversion of the former U.S. Navy Base to an economic zone bolstered by the area’s commercial and industrial piers had catapulted the development of the Central Luzon region.

The tourism industry is also one of Subic’s strongest assets. The zone promotes ecotourism through guided treks and jungle survival tours. Aside from that, it boasts theme parks, diving spots (wreck diving), sailing, extreme water sports, and adventure parks. Outlet shops and duty-free shopping centers also attract tourists, especially those who like shopping and finding great deals.

Here are more things you need to know about Subic:

• Language: The province of Zambales has three main languages — Tagalog, Ilocano, and Sambal.
• Currency: Philippine peso (PHP, ₱). PHP100 is around USD 1.78, EUR 1.60, SGD 2.31 (as of August 2024).
• Modes of Payment: CASH is preferred. Credit card payments are widely accepted, especially in business districts. If you are going outside the urban zones, ensure that you have an ample amount of cash with you.
• Connectivity: Strong data signal for both Smart and Globe, especially in urban areas.
• Electricity Info: 220V, 60Hz. Mostly, Socket Type A.

Note: This travel guide will touch the Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ), specifically the municipality of Subic and Olongapo City.

HOW TO GET TO SUBIC

There are two gateways to Subic — the Clark International Airport and the Ninoy Aquino International Airport . The former (CIA), is the closest, located further northeast of Subic, while the latter (NAIA) is located in Manila.

Manila to Subic

Subic is usually included in the itinerary for road trips up north. North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) connect Subic to Metro Manila. Bringing a car allows you to travel at your own pace and make a restroom break stop whenever necessary. Drive along NLEX until you reach the exit to SCTEX. Keep on driving along SCTEX, then take Tipo Exit. From there, continue driving to Subic (SBMA/SBFZ).

The travel time is two to four hours , depending on the traffic condition.

By Regular Bus

• Whether you are coming from NAIA or any point in Metro Manila , travel to Victory Liner Bus Terminal. You can go to Pasay, Sampaloc, Cubao, or Caloocan terminal. The bus company plies to Olongapo from Manila daily. Bus typically leaves every 30 minutes. The buses are air-conditioned and have wi-fi on board.
• Get on a Victory Liner bus bound for Olongapo. The fare is P230-380 . The travel time is two to four hours. There’s normally a toilet break halfway.

HOW TO GET AROUND SUBIC AND OLONGAPO

The jeepney is the primary mode of transportation for the locals, but it’s also very tourist-friendly. The jeepneys are color-coded per route . This way, it is easier to determine which jeepney one should take going to a certain destination or point.

Tourist will likely use the Yellow, Red, and Blue Jeepneys. Yellow Jeepneys shuttle along the main streets between Sta. Rita in Olongapo and the Subic Bay Freeport Zone Main Gate. Red Jeepneys cut through the side streets between Gordon Heights and the SBFZ Main Gate. This jeepney serves the bus terminal in Olongapo. Blue Jeepneys run from Olongapo city center to the municipality of Subic. This route covers the coastal areas. The fare ranges from P10 to P15.

• Yellow: Sta.Rita/Pepsi – SBFZ Main Gate
• Red: Gordon Heights – SBFZ Main Gate
• Blue: Public Market/Olongapo City Center – Subic Town

If you are curious about the other routes, you can check it here: Color Coded Jeepneys of Olongapo .

There are a lot of tricycles in Subic town and Olongapo. “Trikes” can shuttle passengers following a particular route they chose to anchor their plate numbers to or they can function as a taxi by offering special trips, which usually works with tourists. These special trips can cover both short and long-distance route. The fare can range from P10 to P150. This includes the rate for a special trip from Olongapo Bus Terminal to Subic town.

Note: Like the jeepneys, tricycles are not allowed inside the Subic Bay Freeport Zone. They can only go as far as the main gate of SBFZ.

Unlike the jeepneys and tricycles, taxis are allowed inside the SBFZ. Taxis operating inside the Subic Bay Freeport Zone are actually SUVs that don’t have the usual taxi sign on top of the car but have the SBFZ taxi logo and body number on the sides. Also, meter service is non-existent here. The fare ranges from P100 to P700, depending on the distance.

Outside SBFZ, you can find a significant number of taxis in the city center, especially around Olongapo Bus Terminal. You can just negotiate the fare with the driver. The fare ranges from P70 to P500.

THINGS TO DO IN AND AROUND SUBIC

El kabayo subic trail.

Subic is sandwiched between densely forested mountains and Subic Bay. The mountains boast rugged trails yet to be charted. Among many trekking sites is the El Kabayo Subic Trail . Under MAD Travel’s Tribe and Trek program, participants are exposed to the flora and fauna enveloping the trail while learning about jungle survival and making herbal medicine.

This activity aims to help our indigenous tribes protect and preserve their ancestral domain by educating and helping us understand the importance of our natural heritage and sustainable tourism. The El Kabayo Subic trail is home to the Aeta’s Pastolan Tribe. Check out the waterfalls too near the end of the trail.

Wreck Diving and Snorkeling

Subic Bay is known for its deep calm waters. It is also said to be one of the biggest naval bases of the U.S. Navy outside their motherland when it was still operational.

Beyond the lush forests and the coasts, Subic Bay is laden with several vintage shipwrecks and WWII remnants that are drawing wreck diving enthusiasts, local and international divers alike. Para sa mga mahilig sa wasakan at pilit inuungkat ang nakaraan. Haha! Some of the shipwreck sites are only around 15 minutes from the diving centers. Whether you are just starting to learn diving or already an expert, the rich marine ecosystem offers a great underwater adventure.

Some of the shipwrecks in Subic Bay are the USS New York , the USS Lanikai , the Oryoku Maru , and the Sakura Maru .

Several dive centers and operators are stationed around the Subic Bay area. Rates vary depending on the course, number of sessions, and the inclusions, but recreational wreck dive prices usually range from P2,000 to P3,000 if you have your own gear. You will have to add P1,000 to P1,200 if you’re renting gear too.

Some operators allow non-divers onto the boat and let them snorkel instead. Snorkeling fee with gear rental costs P1,500 to P1,800.

Rich Mangrove Forests

Mangroves thrive best in tropical areas. The Philippines alone cradles about half of the world’s mangrove species. Mangrove forests play an important role in maintaining the balance in our ecosystem for both land and sea. Protecting our mangrove forests means protecting our environment and our future. Subic Bay has over 60 hectares of mangrove forests scattered in six different sites including the Olongapo Bay Area , Triboa Bay Area , and Ilanin Bay Area . Source: SBMA Ecology Center .

The most popular site is the Triboa Mangrove Park. The best time to go is early in the morning or at dusk during the dry season. Take note of the tide condition too. Here are the rules and regulations when visiting the mangrove forest sites. Please follow them.

• Respect the area and be highly aware of the environment and your actions at all times. Don’t take anything with you — plants or animals. Don’t catch the crabs and other crustaceans and don’t ever step on mangrove roots and other vegetation.
• Move as little as possible and be quiet to avoid disturbing the wildlife. Do not play loud music.
• Don’t litter. Don’t smoke. If you need to use the toilet, there are restrooms available.

For inquiries, sponsorships, donations, and other concerns, please contact SBMA Ecology Center . If you want to report any violations, you may also direct your concern to their office.

Beaches and Resorts

Carpeted with grayish sand hugged by gentle waves, the beach here may not be as fair as Boracay or any other beach you frequent, but it offers a perfect location to watch the sunset. The SBMA Beach boardwalk is a favorite spot among locals to watch the changing colors of sky as the sun sets.

Other beaches in the area are Baloy Beach , Sierra Beach , and Manga Beach .

Subic Shopping!

After a day of beach bumming, you can put on your bargain-hunter hat and go duty-free shopping ! Aside from the beaches, you might want to take a look at the stores on your way back to Manila. Beach + retail therapy. No other formula is more effective in relieving stress.

Filipinos are known to spend money on shopping especially for souvenirs, stuff they can bring home to their loved ones. The “pasalubong culture” is strongly ingrained in most, if not all, Filipino travelers. There are plenty of shopping and dining facilities in Subic, the most popular are the outlet stores and the duty-free shops . Borrowing Subic’s tourism catchphrase, “It’s More Fun-tastic in Subic!” Agree?

Spectacular Sunsets

As previously mentioned, Subic Bay presents a spectacular sunset on a clear day. Aside from SBMA Beach and Boardwalk Park, there are many other great spots for sunset-watching around the Subic Bay area. These include Malawaan Park, The Lighthouse Marina Resort, and the whole stretch of Waterfront Road where you can also find the Inang Laya Monument, The Hellship (Oryoku Maru) Monument, and Children of the Sun Returning Monument. Further north, you can both enjoy the beach and the view of the sunset at Baloy Beach, Manga Beach, and Sierra Beach.

Subic Bay Yacht Cruise

You might be wondering why we included a yacht cruise . You might be thinking it’s expensive. Well, it is. Haha. But there are ways to lower the cost. If you’re a big group, this is something to consider especially if you’re celebrating an occasion.

If you can spare over a thousand bucks for an island-hopping tour in other parts of the country, you might want to consider this too. It’s just like joining a group tour. If you’re a big group, you can scratch this off your bucket list for as low as P1,950 per person.

So, gather all your friends or your family and enjoy this unique and “nakaluwag-luwag” experience. This is also a perfect romantic getaway, especially when you do it at dusk for the beautiful sunset . If you like it, put a ring on it. Hihi.

Subic Bay is gaining attention in the Asian sailing circuit. Its flat waters and the wind condition make it a challenging sailing destination . Other sports in Subic Bay are dragon boat racing, propulsion jetting, kayaking, jet skiing, and parasailing.

OTHER SUBIC TIPS FOR THE POOR TRAVELER

• Practice the “Leave No Trace” principle. Leave nothing but footprints; kill nothing but time; take nothing but photos. Be mindful of your actions. Collect your garbage and apply proper waste disposal.
• Practice sustainable tourism. Help the local community by buying their products. Reduce waste by bringing your own water container and dry bags (or eco bags) instead of buying plastic bottled drinks and plastic bags.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SUBIC

When is the best time to visit subic.

December – May. Most of the attractions in Subic are done outdoors, so it’s better to go there during the dry months. High summer months are April and May, but summer begins as early as March. The rainy or wet season is from July to October with the highest chance of rainfall in July, August, and September.

How can I get around Subic Bay Freeport Zone?

By taking the SUV taxis. Tricycles and Jeepneys are not allowed inside the premises, but they can drop you off until the Main Gate. From there, you can take a fixed rate SUV taxi to get around SBFZ.

How will I know the exact fare for the taxi ride inside SBFZ?

The fare ranges from P100 to P700, depending on the distance. This is actually quite tricky because these taxi don’t use meter service, and based on our team’s recent visit this year (February 2024), they also don’t provide fare matrix. So, you need to negotiate the fare. Each SUV taxi can accommodate up to seven (7) passengers.

I’m grateful to the North Philippines Visitors Bureau (NPVB) and the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) Corporation for having us again on their Lakbay Norte project. This year, we’ve covered Clark, Subic, and Baler for the Lakbay Norte 8 familiarization trip.

The North Philippines Visitors Bureau is a non-stock, non-profit membership-based umbrella organization of Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) all over North Philippines. The aim is to promote destinations through events & conventions.
