Ann's tips for this trip
  • Your driver waits at the Tagbilaran port exit with your name on a sign. No taxi queue, no haggling.
  • Fast ferries like OceanJet run the air-con very cold, especially in business class. Keep a jumper in your bag.
  • Not every ferry sells food. Bring water and a snack, just in case.
  • All ferries have toilets, but bring a small pack of tissues and some hand wash.
  • You're on a boat: pack a change of clothes in a dry bag in your luggage, in case anything gets wet in bad weather.
