Ports all around Cebu and Destinations

Philippines is generally an archipelago, so an island needs to connect with nearby island through ports. Cebu as an island in the heart of the Philippines is not an exception, in fact, ports are strategically built around Cebu both in the north and in the south to facilitate “crossing borders”. This article doesn’t cover airports, which obviously just one within Cebu. We will try to cover all the seaports points all around Cebu and it’s destinations to nearby islands. For busy ports, like the piers in Cebu City, we will just mention few major destinations.

A Progressive Cebu

Cebu has been progressing rapidly during the last few years. We’ve noticed small ports are being built, good for businesses like cargoes and good also for explorers and travelers to cross nearby islands. It’s convenient as people doesn’t necessarily need to travel to the city capital in order to cross to another island.
