Notes:
- The only ferry from Bohol to Oslob is run by Apekop Travel, which leaves once a day. You can book online here.
- The boat has limited seats, so I highly recommend booking ahead.
- When you arrive in Quartel Beach, it’s a short 400m walk to the highway, where you can hail a southbound bus bound for Bato.
- When you arrive in Bato Port, wait on the highway for a northbound bus going to Cebu. Tell the conductor to drop you in Moalboal.
- This route sounds complicated. But over 50 buses ply these routes daily, so it’s a lot easier than it might seem.
