Travelers planning a getaway to Northern Cebu should take note of the latest sailing advisory from Balt-Bep Shipping Express. The ferry operator has officially transitioned to an alternate-day schedule for its Cadiz to Bantayan and Bantayan to Cadiz routes, a change that will remain in effect until the first week of June.
Under this temporary arrangement, the shipping line will operate only one-way trips per day. All scheduled departures are set for 10:00 AM. Passengers are advised that on days when a vessel is scheduled to depart from Cadiz, no return trip from Bantayan will be available, and vice versa.
Sailing Schedule and Routes
To ensure a smooth journey, passengers are encouraged to refer to the specific sailing dates below:
| Direction | Departure Time | Designated Dates |
|---|---|---|
| Cadiz to Bantayan only | 10:00 AM | May 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30 and June 1, 3, 5 |
| Bantayan to Cadiz only | 10:00 AM | May 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31 and June 2, 4, 6 |
Important Reminders for Travelers
- Plan Ahead: Because the vessel operates on an alternate-day basis, travelers must ensure their return dates align with the specific days the ferry serves their required direction.
- Punctuality: With departures strictly set for 10:00 AM, passengers are advised to arrive at the port at least an hour before the scheduled trip for manifests and boarding procedures.
- Operational Changes: This schedule is expected to normalize after the first week of June, though passengers should remain alert for further announcements from Balt-Bep Shipping Express regarding potential extensions or modifications.
For those visiting the pristine beaches of Bantayan Island, staying updated on these transport logistics is vital for a hassle-free vacation. Safe travels to all commuters and tourists.
