How to Get to Bantayan Island?

Itching for a Bantayan Island escapade?

Bantayan Island is undeniably one of the flagship tourist destinations of Cebu. Its white sand beaches, azure clear waters and palatable seafood dishes have attracted not just locals but also travelers coming from different parts the world.

The island is divided into three municipalities: Bantayan, Madridejos, and Santa Fe.

Interestingly, there are claims that Bantayan Island got its name from the term ‘Bantayan sa Hari’ which means ‘Watchtowers of the King.’ Eighteen watchtowers were built here during the time of Governor-General Sebastian Hurtado de Corcuera when Moro pirates raided the island looking for slaves.

As rich as its history, the island has spots that can satiate your wanderlust. There are few that stand out – Bantayan include Virgin Island, Paradise Beach, Ogtong Cave, Kota Beach, and Obo-ob Mangrove Eco Park. Also, during your stay, you can enjoy island-hopping, snorkeling, skydiving and of course, food-tripping.

But travelling to Bantayan Island especially for the first timers is a bit of a hassle. But worry not, here’s a guide on how we can get to this beautiful piece of nature from two key cities in Cebu province.

FROM CEBU CITY

Cebu City shelters two main bus terminals with routes going to the both ends of Cebu province. The Cebu South Bus Terminal has buses bound to famous South Cebu destinations starting from Talisay City to Dalaguete and all the way to Oslob and Santander. It’s located in N. Bacalso Avenue, Cebu City.

On the other hand, the Cebu North Bus Terminal (now located at what used to be the outdoor parking area of SM City Cebu at the corner of S. Osmeña Road and Kaohsiung Street at the North Reclamation Area in Cebu City) caters all north-bound passengers such as those going to Bogo, Maya Port to Malapascua island and the Hagnaya Port for Bantayan island.

So to get to Bantayan Island from Cebu City, one must:

Head first to Cebu North Bus Terminal in SM. To get there, you can ride any SM-bound jeepney such as those with routes 04L, 01K, and 12I. For convenience, you can book a Grab or taxi for a ride to Cebu North Bus Terminal.

Once there, hop on a Ceres bus bound for Hagnaya Port. If you’re travelling in group, you may opt to hire a van.
Travel time: 4 hours
Bus Fare: approximately P175

Once you get to Hagnaya Port, board a ferry bound for Santa Fe Port. First trip is at 3AM and the last trip is at 5PM.
Travel time: 1 hour
Fare: approximately P185
Terminal fee: P10

After arrival in Santa Fe, proceed to pay for the Ecological Fee (P30).

Proceed to your booked resort by taking a tricycle.

FROM MACTAN

As of May 2021, this flight service is not yet open to the public.

Bantayan is now a plane away. The usual 4 – 5 hours bus-ferry trip is now cut to a 30 minutes travel by air.

With the goal of boosting the island’s tourism industry, the Cebu Provincial Government, spearheaded by Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia, and Mactan Cebu International Airport (MCIA) have formally re-opened the newly-renovated Bantayan Island Airport.

Photo from Mactan-Cebu International Airport Authority Facebook Page

This means that with the new commercial Bantayan Airport, one just needs to book a flight and head to MCIA in Lapu-Lapu City. As of writing, the estimated air fare to Bantayan Island is P1,288 one-way or P2,576 round trip. Please note price may vary depending on the season and/or promo.

To get to Mactan Cebu International Airport, you can ride on a MyBus from SM City Cebu. You can also arrange a Grab/taxi ride for a hassle-free travel to Lapu-lapu City.

If there’s one thing that this pandemic had taken away from us, it’s the freedom to travel and explore the world. Now that the COVID cases in Cebu have slowly subsided, quarantine restrictions have been gradually being loosened so that the tourism industry (one of the hardest hit industry) can bounce back. Let’s continue to travel but be observant with the health protocols.

After all, we only live once so tick off that Bantayan trip from your bucket list.

Cebu Commute Guide: List of available transportations and routes

The first General Community Quarantine was a big step that the local government took to slowly bring back the economy and bring back the jobs of Cebuano families.

It was good news for working Cebuanos but commuters were faced with the difficult problem of looking for transportation. To be able to control the spread of the virus and lower the chances of contact, the local government opted to not allow any public vehicles to be in service until there have been concrete precautionary measures set to avoid an unwanted rise in the number of positives.

This left individuals with no other means of transportation except riding taxis or bicycles to work which both have their own resounding cons.

As Cebu slowly shifts from being a COVID-19 hotspot to a center of recovery, various modes of transportation are slowly being rolled out with distanced seats and strict protocols. Currently, public vehicles are slowly starting to become operational and allowed to drive passengers around the city.

Here is a list of currently available public transportation and their corresponding routes and hours of operation.

For only P20 entrance fee, a fun and memorable day is guaranteed at Palicte Beach Resort. The place is complete with amenities and activities that you and your loved ones can enjoy while here. The beach front is covered with black sand that makes a perfect venue to indulge in exciting sandy activities like beach volleyball among others.

Their cottages can accommodate large groups. They even have those with a karaoke machine to challenge your vocal prowess. For Filipinos, belting in front of a karaoke is always the life of the party.

The resort’s fresh and peaceful morning vibe awaits those who booked an overnight stay. The clean and well-maintained shorelines will surely tempt everyone for a morning stroll while you wander yourself to the sight of the calm sea and the breeze of the sea-salty air.

Palicte Beach Resort’s overnight accommodation options are worth your budget. They have rooms in native designs that are perfect for couples, or you can also go for the air-conditioned rooms. For the campers, you can rent their tents and spend the night under the moonlight with your friends.

Spend the most of your stay here by renting their kayaks and paddle your way to the vast sea or pamper yourself with a book in their cozy tree house.

There’s no corkage fee so everyone can bring their favorite food. They have grilling/cooking stations where you can grill seafoods or roast pork belly. If you fell short of food, they serve all-day breakfast meals at an affordable price. There’s also a store which sells basic necessities. A restaurant will soon open on a small jetty that sits near the western end of the property.

Few Reminders:

The place is very affordable and gets fully booked most of the time so make sure to book in advance.
There are nearby stores and public markets where you can buy your daily needs.
The beach has great reefs for snorkeling so be sure to bring your snorkel and goggles.
