About this place

Boac Pier serves as one of Marinduque's principal seaports, connecting the island to mainland Luzon via regular passenger and cargo ferry services.

Arrival and Departure for Travelers

The pier is the primary arrival and departure point for many travelers visiting Boac and the wider province — for a lot of visitors, the first and last sight of Marinduque happens right here.

A Scenic Vantage on the Sibuyan Sea

Beyond its function as a seaport, Boac Pier is a scenic vantage point for watching inter-island vessels and the Sibuyan Sea — a quietly memorable corner of the island worth a few minutes' pause.

Onward Transport to Boac Proper

Small tricycles and jeepneys wait at the pier to take arriving passengers to accommodations in Boac proper — the practical link between the seaport and the rest of the trip.

Boac Pier isn't a destination in itself, but as one of Marinduque's principal seaports, it sets the tone for the trip — arrive here, catch a tricycle into Boac proper, and the island is already in front of you.

Best Time to Visit

Mornings give you the best shot at reliable boat trips. Smaller bancas and inter-island runs leave from here, and afternoon trips can get cancelled when the seas turn. If you're connecting to a banca, check with the operator the day before — schedules shift with the weather.

What to Bring

Cash for any fares (banca operators don't take cards), your ticket if you've already booked passage, a bag for fish you bought at the market on the way over, and water. Light layers if you're catching an early or late boat — the coastal wind cuts through thin shirts. A dry bag if you're worried about spray.

How to Get Here

Boac Pier is a short tricycle ride from the Boac town center, easy to find. Important note: this is NOT where the Lucena ferry lands — the big RoRo ferries arrive at Balanacan Port, up in Mogpog. Boac Pier is for smaller inter-island and local boat trips, so don't show up here expecting a Lucena connection.
