About this crossing

Two ships share this link between the northern tip of Cebu and the southern end of Luzon, and each makes one round trip a day. Lite Ferry Six leaves Maya at 11:59, reaches Matnog in the evening and comes back on the 23:59; LIRIO 16 does the reverse, sailing from Maya at 23:59 and returning on the midday boat from Matnog (Matnog to Maya).

Lite's online booking does not sell the crossing, so the times come from its schedule page. At Matnog, FastCat crosses on to Samar three times a day (Matnog to San Isidro).
