Tubigon

So my ferry ride from Cebu to Tagbilaran got cancelled because the SuperCat ferry broke down on its way to Cebu. We wasted no time and got a ticket to Tubigon since the earliest available ferry to Tagbilaran was at 4:30 in the afternoon. Tubigon is in the Northern side of Bohol and about an hour away to Tagbilaran City.

It took 2 hours to reach Tubigon from Cebu and the most striking feature of the place is its huge port and seaside.




Tubigon is a small town, but I'm sure there are days when it bustles with activity especially during market days.




Here's Tubigon on Google Maps:

How to get to Tubigon-Tagbilaran:

1. Take a ferry from Cebu (pier #3), takes approximately 2 hours
2. Tickets range from PhP180-200 (aircon)
3. To get to Tagbilaran, take a tricycle to the V-Hire terminal.
4. Hop on a V-Hire to Tagbilaran, it costs PhP90 each.

  2. Hi Aileen. How many hours is the travel time from Tubigon to Tagbilaran via V-hire? Do you know where the V-hire terminal is located?

  3. @Ayi the trip took about 30 minutes. Just take an tricycle that would bring you to the Cultural Center.

  4. Aileen, thank you for answering my queries. :)
    If you don't mind I have another question. Does this v-hire have a tagbilaran-tubigon route? If so, would you know where is the terminal?

  5. @Ayi I think there is, I'm just not sure where the terminal is located since we got dropped off along the way.

  10. Hi Jenn, it's better to go straight to Tagbilaran and take Supercat. Take Tubigon route only if you have lots of time and remember you still need to travel by land for at least an hour to get to Tagbilaran from Tubigon.
