About the Caticlan – Roxas (Oriental Mindoro) crossing
Four crossings a day from Caticlan — the jumping-off point for Boracay — west to Roxas on Oriental Mindoro, running between 04.00 and 20.00.
A link that skips Manila entirely
Travelling between Panay and Mindoro by road would mean going the long way north through Luzon. This crossing removes that, which is why it carries freight and vehicles as much as it carries people heading for the beaches.
Symmetrical, unusually
The return runs four times over the same 04.00–20.00 window. Most of Montenegro Shipping Lines's routes carry a different number of sailings in each direction; here the service mirrors itself, which makes a same-day round trip genuinely plannable.
Before you go
Departure times shift with weather and sea state, and the 04.00 sailing in particular is subject to conditions at first light. Confirm on the day.
