Step 2: Head to Sasa Wharf

From wherever you are in Davao City, make your way to Sasa Wharf. This is the main ferry terminal for boats going to Samal Island. You can take a taxi, Grab, or a jeepney depending on your location within Davao City.

It's advisable to leave early, especially if you're traveling during peak hours or on weekends, as the ferry can get crowded.

Step 3: Purchase Ferry Tickets

Once you arrive at Sasa Wharf, proceed to the ticket counters. Purchase your ferry ticket to Samal Island. Make sure to ask which ferry goes to Babak Port, as that's the nearest port to Hamugaway Beach.

Ticket prices may vary depending on the ferry operator and whether you're bringing a vehicle.

Step 4: Board the Ferry

After purchasing your ticket, proceed to the designated boarding area. Be sure to arrive at least 15-30 minutes before the scheduled departure time to secure your spot on the ferry.

Once the ferry arrives, follow the instructions of the crew and board the vessel. If you have any luggage or belongings, you can either keep them with you or stow them in the designated storage areas.

You'll find various transportation options available outside the port, including tricycles, habal-habal (motorcycle taxis), and multicabs (small public utility vehicles). You can negotiate with the drivers for a ride to Hamugaway Beach.
