Why It Is Best to Bike In Bantayan Island, Cebu

When visiting Bantayan Island in northern Cebu, commuting to places in the island can be a strain in the budget. My advice for tourists going to Bantayan Island would be for them to rent a bicycle. Here are a few reasons why biking in Bantayan Island is a good idea:

Save On Transportation Costs

Instead of shelling out 20 pesos every time you ride a pedicab or motorized tricycle, rent a bike instead at PHP 40 per hour or PHP 150 per day. When you are staying for a week or more in Bantayan Island, you can rent the bike at PHP 450 for an entire week. The cost can even be split between two people as some bikes may allow another person to ride shotgun at the back of the bicycle. It's easy to find where to rent bicycles in Bantayan Island and it is best to rent your bicycle through the resort where you are billeted at.
