Just landed at Caticlan Airport? You’re only 20–30 minutes away from Boracay’s White Beach — but you’ll need to cross water, pass a port, and maybe dodge some tourist traps.

This guide shows you exactly how to get from Caticlan Airport to your hotel in Boracay, with real prices, routes, and local tips for 2025.

Boat transfer from Caticlan to Boracay
The scenic boat ride from Caticlan to Boracay Island.

🛬 Step 1: Exit the Airport and Take a Trike or Walk

The airport is small — within 2 minutes you’ll be outside.

You have two options:

  • Walk to the Caticlan Jetty Port (7–10 minutes with luggage) (not recommended)
  • E-Trike ride (₱50–₱100 depending on baggage and mood)

💡 Tip: Airport Pickup

Some transfer companies pick you up right at the exit — no hassle. This is the most convenient option, especially if you have a lot of luggage or prefer a seamless journey.

🛥️ Step 2: Get Your Boat Ticket at Caticlan Jetty Port

The Caticlan Jetty Port is open from 5 AM to 9 PM daily. You’ll pay 3 mandatory fees at the port:

  • Boat fare: ₱50
  • Environmental fee: ₱150 (one-time)
  • Terminal fee: ₱100

👉 Total = ₱300 per person

Porters will be there to assist you if needed (usually ₱50 per bag).

Boats run every 5–10 minutes during the day. You don’t need to reserve.

💡 Local Tip: Skip the Lines

Locals and expats often skip lines by booking private transfers ahead. This saves time and stress, especially during peak season.

🏝️ Step 3: Cross to Boracay Island (10–15 Minutes by Boat)

The boat ride is short but scenic. You’ll arrive at Cagban Port on Boracay’s southeast side.

🚐 Step 4: Land Transfer to Your Hotel or Airbnb

Once at Cagban Port, choose how to get to your accommodation:

Option Cost Notes
Shared Van ₱150–₱200 Cheapest if you're near Station 2
Private Van ₱500–₱800 Better for families or lots of luggage
E-Trike ₱150–₱300 Fun + flexible, but depends on weather

💡 Important Note for Specific Areas

If you stay in Diniwid, Bulabog, or Yapak, mention this when arranging a ride. Some vans don’t go all the way there, and you might need a specific e-trike or private transfer.
