How to get from Cebu City to Siquijor

There are many ways to get from Cebu island or Cebu City to Siquijor. And for every budget as well.
You can go by plane, to Sibulan Airport, close to Dumaguete port, and travel from there by ferry

Or you can do the whole trip by bus, which is actually quite an astonishing trip with some views that you should not miss. I did that trip the other way around: from Dumaguete to Cebu by bus, you can read about that trip in this article (click). The article includes prices, which should be the same when you come from Cebu.

But you can get off that bus in Liloan also and take the ferry from there going to Siquijor.
Or get to Cebu City port and take a ferry to Siquijor there.

  • Maayo Shipping 10.00 daily departure from Liloan, Cebu Island arrival Larena Port, Siquijor. (Roro)

  • traveling by ferry is very inexpensive compared to Western countries.
  • even if you take a motorbike or a car?
  • in every port, you pay either an environmental fee or a port terminal fee.
  • every ferry has a CR, just ask where it is.
