Cebu Camotes Islands Top Tourist Attractions with Todd Hata
HOW TO GET TO CAMOTES ISLANDS?
We flew in via Mactan Intl Airport in Cebu City. Then the next day we proceed to Cebu Ferry Passenger Terminal 1 and we took the 6:00am ferry ride with Oceanjet. Travel time was 2 hours.
Cost: P500 / way + P25 Terminal Fee (Cebu City) + P5 Terminal Fee (Camotes Island)
Cheaper Alternative but Longer Travel Time from Cebu City:
From Cebu City, take a bus from Cebu North Terminal heading to Danao port. Take a passenger pump boat from Danao to Poro, Camotes Island. Total travel time from the city is 4 hours.
Cost: P35 (bus) + P220 (boat) - please reconfirm rates upon arrival there
WHERE DID WE STAY IN CAMOTES ISLANDS?
For budget conscious traveler like me but needed an aircon room, I chose RMS Travelers Inn which I booked via Agoda. Nothing fancy. Room is big but toilet/shower is really small. (Yung tipong pwede ka ng maligo while doing that other thing. Hahaha.) We only stayed there for less than 12 hours just to sleep.
COST: P775 / room

HOW ABOUT THE TOURS?
As soon as you got out of the pier, there will be a lot of tricycle / multicab drivers who’ll welcome you and offer you their services. All of them are accredited by the Tourism Office so you can choose what your gut tells you is a good one.
But based on our experience, I highly recommend Kuya Jed’s services. Siya yung napili naming that time and glad we did because he’s super nice. He’s one of those guides’ who goes for an extra mile just to make his clients happy. OK lang sa kanya kahit ginabi na kami and he even invited us to his relative’s house for lunch since it was the town fiesta then. Yes! Libre lunch!

Camotes Islands comprises three major islands and one minor islet, divided between four municipalities. On Poro Island are the municipalities of Poro and Tudela. Pacijan Island's sole municipality is San Francisco. Ponson Island's sole municipality is Pilar. Tulang Island is an islet and part of San Francisco. The main islands of Pacijan and Poro are connected by a 1.5-kilometre-long (0.93-mile) causeway. Ponson lies about four kilometres (2.5 mi) northeast of Poro, across the Kawit Strait. Tulang is located a short distance north of Pacijan.
The Camotes are low-lying with several hills, some used for telecommunications relay stations. The highest point is Altavista, 388 metres (1,273 ft) above sea level, on Poro. Pacijan has a large lake, Lake Danao, which at 650 hectares (1,600 acres) is the largest freshwater lake in the province.
