Balbagon Port — not the more commonly referenced Benoni, which sits on a different Camiguin crossing entirely — is Camiguin’s real ferry terminal for Bohol, and Super Shuttle Ferry runs the RORO crossing from there to Jagna on Bohol’s southeastern coast, a trip of roughly 4.5 hours. Camiguin is a small island, so getting to Balbagon from wherever you’re staying is its own planning step, not something to assume away.

The crossing
Super Shuttle Ferry runs Economy and Tourist A classes on its RORO vessels, the same operator behind the Hagnaya–Bantayan and Liloan–Camotes crossings out of Cebu. On the Camiguin–Bohol leg specifically, it carries both passengers and vehicles, and the roughly 4.5-hour duration makes this one of Super Shuttle’s longer regular routes.
As of 2026-07-29, 12Go’s live listing shows a single daily sailing departing Balbagon around 9:00 AM, with fares from roughly ₱966 for foot passengers — but confirm the current time and fare on the live listing before booking, since smaller-operator schedules shift without notice.
Getting to Balbagon Port
Camiguin is compact — most accommodation clusters around Mambajao town and the White Island/Agoho stretch on the north coast — but Balbagon Port sits on the island’s southern side, so plan a 20–40 minute tricycle or habal-habal ride depending on where you’re staying, rather than assume the port is a short walk from your hotel.
Ports and arrival
- Departs: Balbagon Port, Camiguin.
- Arrives: Jagna Port, on Bohol’s southeastern coast, roughly 66 kilometers from Tagbilaran City. This is not the Tagbilaran or Panglao side of the island — budget an additional 1.5–2 hours by van for onward travel to the tourist belt.
Jagna functions as Bohol’s secondary sea gateway, handling ferries from Mindanao and Camiguin with a more transit-driven character than the resort towns further south — a working wharf with an active public market behind it rather than a tourist terminal.
Economic context
As a RORO service carrying both vehicles and foot passengers, Super Shuttle’s pricing model favors travelers moving cargo or a motorbike alongside themselves; book vehicle space in advance if you’re bringing one. Fares for foot passengers start around ₱966 per 12Go’s live listing, though the exact rate depends on your date and class — check 12Go for the current price.
Booking
- Search Camiguin to Bohol on 12Go and confirm the Super Shuttle departure time for your travel date.
- Book vehicle space ahead of time if you’re bringing a motorbike or car — RORO vessels have limited capacity per sailing.
- Arrange your Balbagon Port transfer from your Camiguin accommodation before the day of travel.
- Print your ticket where possible; smaller operators are less consistent about accepting phone-screen confirmations.

One honest caveat
Super Shuttle’s ticketing process has tripped up travelers before — reviews describe difficulty printing tickets at smaller ports without a local phone number. Book ahead, save your confirmation in more than one place, and carry a printed copy if you can arrange one before travel day.
