About this crossing

Montenegro's weekly boat from Iloilo to Puerto Princesa breaks its voyage at Cuyo, and this is the ticket for that first stretch. M/V Maria Isabel reaches the island overnight and sails on for mainland Palawan later the same day (Cuyo to Puerto Princesa). The Cuyo group lies in the Sulu Sea between Panay and Palawan and belongs to Palawan province. On its way back from Puerto Princesa the ship calls again, usually leaving Cuyo on a Wednesday afternoon (Cuyo to Iloilo), so a stay from Iloilo normally lasts about three days, or a full week if that boat is missed. No fare is listed for this leg.
