Getting from Bohol to the Camotes Islands, Philippine

This more detailed version of getting from Bohol to the Camotes Islands assumes you are leaving from the Tubigon port, which I think is the better choice.

From Tubigon to Cebu, although this is not the only company so other times/prices are available.

Tubigon to Cebu

Catch the ferry from Tubigon to Cebu.

Buy the ferry ticket from the market, not the port. Pay the terminal fee at the port.

The journey is only about 90 minutes.

There are a number of different companies but the ticket price is all around the same give or take 50php. My ticket cost 230php.

From Tubigon to Cebu, a different company.

Cebu to Danao

From Cebu get yourself to the North Bus terminal. I caught a cab. I can’t remember how much it cost exactly but it was not much as it is within 5km.

From the North Bus Terminal catch the bus North towards Danao Port. Just ask someone to put you on the right bus. It is wise to follow it on your GPS cause if the bus is crowded and/or you have never been there before you may not recognize where to get off.

The journey is not very far but it still takes about 90 minutes, most of which is fighting traffic out of Cebu City.

The Ceres bus costs 50php. Other buses cost 35php.

Danao to Camotes (Consuelo Port)

Ferries from this port only go to one place (I’m pretty sure, but I could be wrong).

The journey is about two and a half hours and will set you back 180php + 5php terminal fee. No ticket, no terminal fee, no entry.
