About this place

Boac Fishing Port is a working port in Boac, Marinduque, where small fishing vessels and local bangkas dock to unload the day's catch. It offers an authentic glimpse of coastal Marinduque life beyond the main ferry terminal.

Watch the Daily Activity

Visitors are welcome to watch the daily activity of local fishermen as small fishing vessels and bangkas come in with the day's catch — a working slice of coastal Marinduque rather than a polished tourist site.

Fresh Seafood Off the Boats

The port is also a place to buy fresh seafood straight off the boats — a direct, no-middleman option for travelers staying somewhere with a kitchen or anyone curious about what the local catch looks like.

Beach Views, Especially at Sunset

Beyond the working activity, the site offers beach views — especially at sunset, when the port becomes a popular spot for photography along this stretch of the Boac coast.

For travelers who want to see how the coast actually works in Boac, the fishing port is a short, honest stop — and an easy detour for sunset photos at the end of the day.

Best Time to Visit

Early morning, around 5–7 AM, when the boats come in with the night's catch. By mid-morning the action's over and you're just looking at empty bancas. This is a sensory experience — sights, sounds, smells of a working port — not a polished attraction. Come for the rhythm, not the facilities.

What to Bring

This is a working port, not a tourist site — come dressed accordingly. Comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting wet or fishy. Cash if you want to buy fresh catch direct from the boats; it's almost always cheaper than the market and considerably fresher. A bag or small cooler for any seafood you take home. Sun protection — the port is open and exposed and there's no shade to duck into.

How to Get Here

From Balanacan Port, jeepney to Boac and tell the driver you're going to the fishing port — they'll know it. Tricycles from Boac Centro will take you the short final stretch. If you're carrying camera gear, watch your footing on the wet planks of the pier.
