Local Transportation
Camiguin doesn’t have a public transport system with buses or taxis – but getting around is easy and part of the island charm.
During the day, you’ll find local tricycles or motorellas (similar to tuk-tuks) operating along the main routes – especially between the airport, ferry ports, and the town of Mambajao.
Habal-habal (motorcycle taxis) are also common for short rides.
Many visitors choose to rent a motorbike to explore the island freely – it’s a popular and flexible option.
👉 A valid driver’s license is required, and helmets are mandatory.
Multicabs (small vans) are available for transfers from/to the airport, ferry terminals, or private island tours.
We’re happy to recommend reliable drivers – or arrange transfers for you (service fees apply).
➡️ Our tip:
Renting a motorbike or car is the best way to explore Camiguin at your own pace.
