Ferry from Batangas to Cagayan De Oro

Batangas Guide

Batangas Ferry Port

Batangas Port, also known as the Batangas Pier, lies in the south west coast of the Philippines, primarily serving the Calabarzon region. Known as the alternate port of Manila, Batangas Port is only a two hour drive from the capital, with bus services running frequently and many taxis available for the journey. The city is famous for the Taal Volcano and Taal Heritage Town, which attract many visitors a year. With several crossings a day, Batangas Port is primarily used for travellers to access the popular tourist destination of Puerto Galera. The sailing takes roughly 90 minutes and arrives at the Muelle Pier. Despite its location in a friendly, bustling city, Batangas Port can be troublesome; foreign visitors are advised to be extra careful when buying tickets and make sure all purchases are made through official services.

Cagayan De Oro Guide

Cagayan De Oro Ferry Port

Famous for its whitewater rafting and kayaking adventures, Cagayan De Oro is located on the north coast of the Philippine’s most southerly island of Mindanao. Away from the water, Cagayan De Oro has a thriving shopping scene, specifically the night market which stays open till 3am, creating a livelier atmosphere than the average shopping experience. Ferry routes out of Cagayan De Oro are fairly infrequent; the most common crossing is to Manila, which only runs four times per week with 2GO Travel. The crossing lasts around 21 hours and typically runs either in the morning or very late in the evening. 2GO also offer ferry routes to Cebu, Bacolod and Iloilo, but again the ferries run infrequently with no more than three a week. The crossings are often inconsistent so it may be best to check for live updates on departures.
