Bohol Divers Club is located right on Alona beach, just meters from the beautiful local reef! Alona beach is at the southwest tip of Panglao Island, Bohol. Panglao is connected by road to the larger island of Bohol, and reachable by ferry and by plane as well. The closest airport, Tagbilaran (TAG) is located in Bohol only 10 minutes away from our dive center.
How to Get Here
By plane from Manila to Bohol
Bohol´s airport (TAG), now located in Panglao, is only 10 minutes away from our dive center. There are three airlines offering direct flights between Manila and Bohol.
By ferry from Cebú to Tagbilaran
Cebu International Airport is located in the city of Lapu-Lapu, in Mactan Island, not far from Cebu city. A taxi can take you from the airport to the port in 30 to 45 minutes for around 200 php. Remember that you should go to port number 1.
You must buy your tickets at the port from one of the companies covering the route Cebu-Tagbilaran:
- OCEAN JET (http://www.oceanjet.net) PORT #1. Is the most popular, it offers nine ferries a day.
- SuperCat (http://www.supercat.com.ph) PORT#1. Offers three fast ferries a day.
- Cokaliong (http://www.cokaliongshipping.com). There is only one ferry a day, every evening.
- Lite Shipping (http://www.liteferries.com)
- Weesam (https://www.weesam.ph)
From Tagbilaran to Alona Beach
Alona Beach is located just 20 kilometers away – 30 minutes- from Tagbilaran. If arriving by ferry you can go to Alona Beach by tricycle, the typical Philippine motorbike with sidecar, for around 400 php, by private car for around 700 php, or by taxi… if you can find one. You can also take a jeepney, but you must go first to the “bus station” and wait for the next one. We don’t recommend this option.
Ask the driver to take you to Bohol Divers Resort. We are located downstairs as you enter the resort, right in front of the beach.
