About this crossing

Each of Starhorse's three weekly boats from Lucena is matched by a sailing back from Banton the following day, at 18:00 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday (Banton to Lucena), so a short visit need not stretch into a week. Banton is a small island in the north of Romblon province, south of Marinduque, and Starhorse is the only line listed. Its poster gives no crossing time, so ask when booking. The middle fare, ₱1,200, swaps the economy monoblock seat for a reclining chair. Simara, the neighbouring island, has its own boat from Lucena on different days.
