About this crossing

For Masbate, Cebu City is the Visayan end of the network, reached by one Cokaliong ship a week that leaves on Sunday at 19:00 and berths at 07:00 on Monday, so the whole crossing happens while you sleep. The island's other links run north to Luzon. Two ships alternate from week to week, and the classes on sale depend on which one is sailing: the lounge only on MV Filipinas Ozamis, the cabin and the three-person suite only on MV Filipinas Iligan. Northbound, the Cebu to Masbate sailing keeps the same hours but leaves on Saturday, so a round trip from Masbate takes a full week. Travellers bound for Luzon rather than the Visayas should look at Masbate to Pilar, which sails several times a day.
