Cebu – Maya
From the Cebu airport take a taxi to the
Cebu North bus station and board one of the frequent
buses to Maya in Daanbantayan town. The ride takes
approx. 3 ½ - 4 hours directly to Maya
pier at the northern tip of Cebu Island. Or take
an taxi from the airport direct to Maya Port.
This is a very comfortable option and saves about
an hour travel time.
Maya – Malapascua
At Maya pier porters take your luggage on outrigger
boats going to the island. Regular boats leave
for Malapascua until 5 p.m. about every 30 –
60 minutes, or soon as the boat is full. Special
boat rides are available which is good for groups
as these will take you directly to The Cove. After
5 p.m. it may be difficult to cross so spend the
night in Cebu City and take the earliest ride
to Maya. The boat ride to Malapascua will take
30 to 40 minutes where you dock at Front Beach
where you can call and ride bikes or you can pay
the outrigger boat extra to take you to The Cove.
