Port Overview
The Port of Cataingan serves as an alternative for commuters bound for/from the Visayas and Mindanao via the ports in the cities of Cebu and Bogo, who cannot avail of the regular RORO ferry service to Masbate City. Likewise, traders from Samar and Leyte provinces have established business conduits via the Port of Cataingan. Considered the most progressive terminal next to the Port of Masbate in terms of vessel, cargo and passenger traffic, the Port of Cataingan has a natural harbor with sufficient depth that makes an ideal shelter for ships in distress or during inclement weather.
