Pumpboat

There are many available pumpboats going to Camotes. Just go to the ports of Danao , and Mandaue Ouano Warf.

From Danao port, a pumboat travels for about 2 hours or more, depending on the weather. The fare is around Php 180 pesos per passenger.

If it’s you’re first time around Cebu and don’t know where to go, just start at central city of Cebu, called Colon. Just take a ride by taxi or jeepney. All jeepneys pass in this street. Look for a Mandaue jeepney going to Ouano Wharf. If you are lost, just ask around, a policeman, also called CITOM, that you can find in the area.

If you’re in Mandaue, and in case you miss the boat via Ouano Wharf, you can still catch the pumpboat in Danao port. Go to AS Fortuna Street corner Mandaue City, Cebu, and jeepneys going to Danao are waiting for you. If you find it difficult to ride a jeepney, there’s always a taxi cab.

If you choose Danao, take a jeepney or bus going to SM. When you reach SM, take another jeepney or a cab going to Danao. There are also Vans-for-hire, also called “V-hire”, ready in the SM terminal located just behind the mall. There are also jeepneys for Mandaue routes near SM Mall.
