If you want to know more about Camiguin Island, please Click here. We visit the place two times and would like to return for more. We also suggest that you need to visit it on a regular day if you are uncomfortable with crowd.







Buckle up and let us discuss how to get to Camiguin Island Step to step from Davao City:


First:
Take a bus from Davao City Overland Transport terminal and board a bus going to Cagayan de Oro City. The bus ride will take about 8 to 9 hours depending on the traffic. Fare would be P620. You would probably have to stay somewhere in Cagayan de Oro City as it is a whole day travel. There are a lot of cheap hotels and inns in CDO to stay for overnight. Consider checking Rich Manor Pension house at Corrales. That is where we usually stay for work.

Second:
If you are already in Cagayan de Oro City, proceed to Agora Terminal and board a bus going to Balingoan port. The travel would take up to 3 hours from CDO proper and fare would be P150. Then once you are already at Balingoan, just take a would going to the Balingoan Port. Don't get scammed by tricicle drivers, we were once victims as we didn't know that the port is only a walking distance.

Third:
Board the Boat going to Benoni Port of Camiguin Island. Fare is about P130 to P170 pesos. I'm not sure for now. The travel would take up to 1:30 to 2 hours.

Fourth:

Tips:
You can hire a motorcycle for P500.00 per day and allow you to use it for 24 hours and the gas is at your expense. If you travel by group, you can hire a multicab for P1,500 for 8 hours travel around Camiguin Island with a seating capacity of 12 to 16 persons. It's much cheaper.
