About

On Cebu, Escalante Port is a ferry terminal in Escalante City, Negros Occidental, Philippines, and it is known as a departure point for boats crossing the water between the islands of the central Philippines. First-time visitors can expect a working port with ticketing, waiting areas and roll-on roll-off vessels taking passengers and vehicles across the strait.

A 3.7 out of 5 average across 268 reviews reflects steady use by travellers who rely on the crossing as part of longer journeys. Cebu City, Mactan and Moalboal sit among the nearby places, and onward connections by ferry, roll-on roll-off boat and domestic flight make the terminal reachable from the main towns and resort areas. Island travel in the Philippines relies on ferries, roll-on roll-off boats and domestic flights, so building in time for connections is sensible.

Tagalog forms the base of Filipino, while Cebuano, Ilocano and Hiligaynon are widely spoken, and a few words of Cebuano go a long way around the port. The Philippines is an archipelago of more than seven thousand islands between the South China Sea and the Pacific Ocean, which explains why so much of the country's movement happens by water.
