Sojourners! If your trip connects Argao in Cebu with Loon in Bohol, the Lite Ferries schedule is a useful starting point for planning your crossing.
It shows daily departures for Lite Ferry 28 and a separate return arrangement for Lite Ferry 22, including a Sunday departure that differs from the Monday-to-Saturday schedule. That day-of-week detail matters when you are arranging transport to the port or deciding how much time you can spend at your destination.
The clearest published entries are Lite Ferry 28’s 3:00 AM and 10:00 AM Argao-to-Loon departures, together with its 6:30 AM and 10:00 AM Loon-to-Argao departures. For Lite Ferry 22, the poster shows Loon-to-Argao sailings at 1:30 PM on Sunday and 6:00 PM from Monday to Saturday. Its Argao-to-Loon line includes the vessel name but has no visible departure time. This guide leaves that missing entry unfilled rather than guessing a matching outbound sailing.
The poster does not show an effective date, passenger fares, vehicle charges, or arrival times. This article was prepared on October 3, 2026, but that preparation date is not the schedule’s confirmed start date. Use the tables below to understand the supplied announcement, then verify your actual sailing date and ticket details directly with Lite Ferries before heading to the port.

Travel time and arrival planning
The supplied timetable lists departures only. It does not publish the crossing duration or destination arrival time, so a precise arrival should not be calculated from an unsupported estimate.
Contact Lite Ferries for the current expected journey time on your selected departure. If the answer is an estimate, allow for boarding, disembarkation, weather, and possible operational delays when planning the next part of your trip.
This matters when you have a separate bus, another ferry, a flight, or an appointment after landing. A quoted crossing time is only one part of the journey between your starting point and final destination. Include the road trip to the departure port, the operator’s reporting requirements, the ferry crossing, and onward transport after arrival. Keeping those stages separate helps you judge whether a connection is realistic.
Booking through Lite Ferries
Lite Ferries’ official website, https://liteferries.com.ph/, offers a Book Now link to https://liteshipping.barkota.com/. Its FAQ also identifies ticketing offices and booths near the port as purchasing options.
Begin with the official website link and check whether your route, date, and passenger requirements are offered in the booking results. Do not assume that every displayed schedule has online inventory open at the time you search.
Before confirming a purchase, review the direction, date, departure, passenger details, and amount payable. Save the confirmation and ask how you should present or validate it at the port.
If the route or vessel cannot be selected online, contact the operator about the appropriate ticketing channel. A screenshot of a schedule is a planning reference, not a reservation or boarding document.
Hotlines and Information Numbers
For inquiries, you may call Lite Ferries at the following numbers:
- Globe 0977 822 5483
- Smart 0998 999 5483
Make your inquiry specific: say the direction, intended date, number of passengers, and whether you are bringing a vehicle. A question such as “Is there an Argao-to-Loon trip on Sunday morning for two adults?” is easier to answer than asking only whether the ferry operates.
If you already have a booking, include its reference through the appropriate private support channel rather than publishing full passenger details in public comments.
Bringing a Motorcycle or Car
Lite Ferries describes its origins as a RoRo passenger-and-cargo service connecting Loon and Argao. However, the supplied route poster does not establish current vehicle charges, size limits, available deck space, or driver inclusions for these departures. If you plan to bring a motorcycle, sedan, van, or loaded vehicle, obtain a quotation and acceptance confirmation for the selected sailing before going to the port.
The operator’s FAQ asks vehicle customers to prepare registration-related documents, including the original receipt and certificate of registration copies, with alternatives described on that page. Confirm the documents applicable to your vehicle and situation. Ask separately whether the driver and other passengers require tickets, when vehicle check-in closes, and whether unusual loads need approval. Passenger availability cannot be used as evidence of available vehicle space.
Packing and Port Preparation
Keep your ticket or booking confirmation, identification, phone, water, and essentials in a small bag you can carry easily. Label larger bags and ask about the current baggage allowance if you have several pieces or bulky items. The schedule poster does not state a free baggage weight, so this guide does not borrow a limit from another operator or a different route.
For a 3:00 AM departure, arrange a reliable transfer in advance and confirm that you can complete ticketing and boarding procedures at the required time. For a daytime departure, leave room for road delays instead of planning to reach the port exactly at sailing time. Check conditions with the operator if weather worsens, and avoid paying for a tight onward connection before confirming the ferry’s operational status.
Balay sa Agta Cave in Argao
The top of the supplied poster features Balay sa Agta Cave in Argao. That photograph provides a destination angle, but it is not an entrance ticket, tour schedule, or confirmation that a cave visit can fit between ferry sailings.
Anyone planning to explore the cave should arrange current local access and guiding information separately rather than turning a ferry timetable into an unverified sightseeing itinerary.
The same care applies to Bohol attractions after arriving in Loon. The port is the start of your onward land journey, not proof that a particular beach or hotel is close by. Check the actual road transfer to your destination and arrange accommodation around a confirmed arrival estimate. A broad Bohol stock image can illustrate the destination, but its caption should identify its real location.

Final Travel Reminder
Before leaving home, confirm the sailing, fare, reporting time, and any vehicle requirements. Give the person meeting you the destination port and an updated arrival estimate, and keep your booking confirmation accessible. With those details checked, the poster becomes a practical part of your Cebu–Bohol journey rather than a source of assumptions about prices, arrival times, or unlisted departures.
