Hi, Just book a flight to CEBU/Philippines (Airport Cebu/Mactan). There we can pick you up with private Car and transfer to MAYA NEW Port where the boats to Malapascia are departing. Private Car for pickup is php 2700.00 for 2 pax. At Maya New Port we can get you with Private Boat and transfer direct to mour beach at Malapascua. Price is php 1600 for the private boat. If you want to use public transfer please check the below information, but be reminded that the last boat from Maya to Malapascua leaves at 17:30 pm; ---------------------------- But on the other hand if you have lots of time and dont look forward for comfortable but somehow more expensive ride to Malapascua, or if you are an experienced Backpacker who like to run the rough ways, or if you are willing to wait hours for a boat going to Malapascua, there is a cheaper way to reach malapascua: Taxi/cab From Mactan Airport with a taxi to the “Northern Bus Terminal” takes approximately 25minutes, traffic depending. If you would rather take a metered taxi, which are more economical than the private ones waiting at the arrival gate, simply walk up the ramp to the departures area and hail a white street taxi, make sure they put the meter on. Public BUS Transfer On reaching the bus terminal we recommend the bright yellow Ceres Bus Liner, non Aircon, php 185 per person. This company has fairly direct buses that leave for Maya, the jump off point for Malapascua Island, approximately every 30minutes. Ceres Bus TOURS is the Aircon busses, price is php 225 per persons. The Aircon busses are mostly brand new tyoe and more comfortable (only 4 seats in a row) than the “Ceres Liner” Regular CERES Busses: Ceres Busses time table: 1. Last Bus North Bus Terminal CEBU - MAYA: 11: 40 pm (23:40) 2. First Bus North Bus Terminal CEBU - MAYA: 1: 00 am (01:00) 3. Last Bus Pantalan MAYA-CEBU: 5:00 pm (17:00) 4.

The journey itself takes between 3 – 4 hours . The best time to travel is early in the morning as it tends to be cooler and there is less traffic on the roads. Be sure you always take the bus with the signboard “Maya NEWPORT”. The bus stops once, after about 1hour, outside of the city for a brief toilet and snack break and sometimes a second brief stop at Bogo City the largest town between Cebu and Maya. Public BOAT Transfer Once you arrive at Maya the bus will stop at the NEW PORT, where once again there will be some very friendly ‘porters’ awaiting to assist you with your bags. There is a small ticket booth, where you can buy a ticket for the next Banka (outrigger boat) to Malapascua; the tickets cost Php 100 per person. If it is a low tide the larger Banka’s cannot reach the pier so you will have to ride a “tunda” (small paddle boat) to the larger boat, this costs approximately Php 20 per person/bag. Expect for at least your feet to get wet – possibly more. The boats leave about every 30 minutes although you can sometimes have a long wait while they wait to fill up with passengers. If there are not at least 15 passengers, no boat will go to Malapascua, so you have to order a SPECIAL RIDE for a price of almost 1800 php (night time 2000 php). The first boat is at 8:30AM and the last is at 5:00PM, although the schedule is set till 4:00PM. The boat trip takes around 45 minutes and drops you off at Logon, the barrio proper or ‘town’. To get to "AABANA Beach- and Watersport Resort, Mike & Diose Beachcottage" from here simply turn right and follow the path towards the Main Beach(Bounty Beach). From there you can either walk about 15 minutes straight up the beach or follow the back path that will lead you to “AABANA Beach- and Watersport Resort, Mike & Diose Beachcottage" . ARRIVAL Because Malapascua has no really PORT or HARBOUR, the landing of Passengerboats are always on some beach. The Point of landing depends on the weather situation. Usually Arrival Malapascua is Bario LOGON, but if it is bad weather and strong waves and winds coming from westside, the Arrival will be changed to the South of Malapascua near COCOBANA Resort or even EASTSIDE PASIL village. But best would be if you contact us twice by cellphone (Text message or phone call, better message)when you leave with bus from Cebu (Take always only CERES Liner !), and give us departure time of Bus and BUS NUMBERwhen you arrive in MAYA and take the passengerboat, tell us when (time) you leave Maya and the give us BOATNAME. Ask the crew where does the boat will landing in Malapascua (which is arrival place ) and tell us, so we can fetch you there and get also your luggage. When you arrive in Malapascua then possible some CANVASSER will talk to you and want you to change your accommodation/reservation and bring you to other places than our place, cause they want to earn some COMMISSION from those canvassing Resorts. Dont let them bother you and just tell them to bring you to our place. If you send us already an textmessage what time you are leaving Maya and give us the boat name, then we can fetch you on arrival in Malapascua!!
