About the Siquijor – Dumaguete crossing
Six sailings a day leaving Siquijor for Dumaguete, the first at 05.00 and the last at 18.00.
An hour and twenty minutes earlier than the return
The first boat off the island goes at 05.00; the first boat towards it leaves Dumaguete at 06.20. That gap is the signature of a service built around islanders travelling to the mainland for the working day — appointments, markets, government offices — rather than around visitors arriving.
The full outbound pattern
05.00, 06.00, 10.00, 12.00, 16.40 and 18.00. Two departures in the first hour, then a gap until mid-morning: the early pair carries the commuting load, the rest of the day is spread thin.
Practical
