Where is the Capul Island cruise port?

There is no conventional cruise passenger terminal. The map pin marks Capul Port in the poblacion on the east side of the island, near the church and town centre, as a representative port-area point rather than a confirmed cruise berth.

Public passenger boats from the mainland also use Capul landings, but that access is not evidence of how cruise passengers come ashore. Check with your ship for the day's landing arrangements.

About Capul Island

Capul is a small island municipality in Northern Samar, set in the San Bernardino Strait between Luzon and Samar. It was a staging point on the historic Manila-Acapulco galleon route and is still known for that maritime past.

Its landmark Spanish-era stone church of Saint Ignatius of Loyola stands in the poblacion with a fortress-like compound, and a lighthouse on the northern tip overlooks the strait. Fishing and coconut farming remain central to daily life. Check the ship schedule for upcoming calls.

Climate
Hot, humid tropical climate with abundant rainfall. This is general regional guidance for the Philippines' tropical maritime climate rather than measurements on Capul itself. Expect warm conditions year-round with rain in every season.
