Hagnaya Port

Fast check-in, efficient ticketing from different shipping lines.. only problem and this have been a very pestering one are the barkers outside trying to force you to let them buy the tickets for you even if you want to do it your way. I always prefer to purchase tickets myself and these guys are so annoying and they sometimes threat you

The end side of the xray is weirdly too short haha. Workers here are kind and accommodating, make sure to have a set payment(how much it costs) or is it free or not before allowing anyone to assist you closely. —nov 2023 edit (from 4 stars to 3 stars) I was with my cousin who is both a german and Philippine passport holder and is still a student whos been here in ph for some months now. Shuttle company did not allow it because they “couldn’t understand what was written” as they were in german. The thing is, on our last visit, which was june 2023 island shipping accepted it without a doubt although we saw an ate who was incharged take a photo of it. It would’ve been ok to pay the full price but What bothers me is their reasoning of not understanding it, the ate even went inside to act (we dunno if she really asked) as if asking their higher up if they would accept such ID and then she gave us THE reason. If you can wait, just take the island shipping boat. I find them more accommodating and welcoming unlike shuttle. Not only is SHUTTLE unreasonably priced but straight up a joke 🙄 the more expensive rate doesn’t even equate to better or fast ride going to the island. Thankssss

Its disappointing. Doesnt even deserve a star. that we as a tourist arrived @ 3am and was prohibited to go inside without a ticket. And ticket sales outlet doesnt bother to answer a question and even slept fronting the passengers. They dont sell the tickets as well. We understand that u dont want any bystanders to go inside but atleast sell as the ticket so we can go in. If not ticket, then a terminal fee would be fine. The government of Hagnaya should do something on this as to not implicate or make the tourists and or residents make a bad impression and will just skip going to bantayan. Tourism is what makes the place live. But if this kind of experience they experienced then id skip Bantayan and go somewhere else.

Decent enough port. You can get tickets for you or bring your car along also. No need to reserve in advance. They have a couple snacl vendors inside the terminal. Cost to bantayan is 305 peso including 25 p3ao port fee. Be there early then prepare to wait. We boarded on time for departure then waited 75 min for them to complete loading the vehicles.....
