Santa Clara routes and travel tips
Santa Clara operates RoRo services, and its home port is Pio Duran, Albay. On Philippines Ferry it is listed on 1 corridor: Pio Duran to Masbate.
Departure times, fares and vessel details differ from route to route, so open a corridor below for the current timetable. Check current ferry cancellations before you travel, because sailings follow Coast Guard and weather suspensions. Student, senior and PWD discounts apply on most routes with a valid ID; see our guide to ferry discounts. Philippines Ferry does not sell tickets, so book with Santa Clara or at the port ticket office.
