About this crossing
One ship a week makes this run, leaving Manila on Wednesday and spending two nights at sea on the way down to the Davao Gulf in south-eastern Mindanao before a Friday evening arrival. Davao is the first port of call on a loop: the same ship sails on to General Santos early on Saturday, then Zamboanga and Iloilo before returning to Manila, which makes the Davao City to Manila leg much longer than the trip down.
