Northern Cebu
Heading up? The North Bus Terminal will be your starting point. Several buses, minivans and v-hires travel to the Northern parts of Cebu and even to Bacolod, Negros Occidental. Most buses have trips every 30 minutes or every hour. Check out some of the places you can go to from the list below, arranged from the closest to the farthest place from the city:
Malapascua Island
Experience paradise -- the unspoiled beauty of Malapascua Island. And if you're a diver, you'll like it even more since you can find thresher sharks here!
How to get there:
Take the bus from the North Bus Terminal to Maya, Daanbantayan. It will take you about 4 hours to get there. Then you take the ferry from the Maya wharf, which leaves every hour or two, depending on the number of passengers. They usually wait till there's at least 10 passengers. Be careful, they might try to convince you to take special ferry trips for various exaggerated excuses. Anyway, if you'd like to skip waiting and go ahead, you can hire a boat for yourself for a special trip. You'll get there in 30 minutes.
Fare (one-way):
Air-conditioned bus: Php 170
Non-air-conditioned bus: Php 160
Ferry: Php 80
Special Ferry Trip: Php 800 - Php 1000
Where to stay:

Tips:
If you don't dive, all there is for you is the beach. So, this will be the best place for you if you're looking a few days of solitude.

Tips:
- Travel in a group to get cheaper accommodation.
- Last trips are about mid-afternoon (both ways) so it's best to travel in the morning.
