Travelers planning a sea journey between Luzon and Northern Palawan can check the latest Atienza Interisland Ferries schedule 2026 covering selected trips from July 20 to July 25, 2026.
Â
The published weekly advisories include RORO services connecting Manila, Batangas, Coron, El Nido, and Liminangcong. Several vessels are assigned across the listed routes, including MV June Aster, MV May Lilies, MV October Lavender, and MV Star San Carlos.
These services may accommodate passengers, vehicles, and cargo, depending on the assigned vessel and voyage. The availability of direct trips and routes with stopovers gives travelers several ways to reach Palawan without relying entirely on air transportation.
This guide organizes the published departure dates and times by origin, explains which trips are direct and which include stopovers, lists the available contact numbers, and provides practical reminders for passengers bringing vehicles or cargo.
Important advisory: The schedules below were transcribed from the supplied Atienza Interisland Ferries announcements. Sea trips may be delayed, moved, reassigned, or canceled because of weather, maritime restrictions, port operations, vessel maintenance, or other operational conditions. Confirm the latest information directly with the ferry company before booking transportation, hotels, tours, or connecting trips.
Atienza Interisland Ferries Routes Covered
The weekly announcements cover the following connections:
- Batangas to Coron
- Coron to Batangas
- Coron to El Nido
- El Nido to Coron
- Manila to Coron
- Coron to Manila
- Manila to El Nido
- El Nido to Manila
- El Nido to Batangas
- Manila to Liminangcong or El Nido via Liminangcong
Some trips are labeled as direct services, while others have a scheduled stopover in Coron or Liminangcong.
Passengers must choose the correct voyage because two trips leaving from the same port may have different vessels, destinations, departure times, and stopover arrangements.
Batangas, Coron and El Nido Weekly Schedule
The first advisory presents a sequence of trips connecting Batangas, Coron, and El Nido.
Batangas to Coron Schedule
| Date | Day | Departure Time |
|---|---|---|
| July 20, 2026 | Monday | 6:00 PM |
Passengers traveling from Batangas to Coron are scheduled to leave on Monday evening at 6:00 PM.
This departure may be useful for travelers bringing a motorcycle, car, or other vehicle to Palawan, provided the assigned vessel accepts the vehicle category and space remains available.
Because vehicle loading takes longer than ordinary passenger boarding, motorists should ask for the official cargo and rolling-cargo cutoff time.
Coron to El Nido Schedule
| Date | Day | Departure Time |
|---|---|---|
| July 21, 2026 | Tuesday | 9:00 PM |
The Coron-to-El Nido service leaves at 9:00 PM on Tuesday.
An overnight departure can help travelers save daytime hours, but passengers should ask about the expected arrival time, accommodation type, sleeping arrangements, and El Nido arrival port.
El Nido to Coron Schedule
| Date | Day | Departure Time |
|---|---|---|
| July 22, 2026 | Wednesday | 11:00 AM |
The return trip from El Nido to Coron leaves at 11:00 AM on Wednesday.
Travelers should arrive well before departure, especially when carrying checked baggage, commercial goods, or a vehicle.
Coron to Batangas Schedule
| Date | Day | Departure Time |
|---|---|---|
| July 22, 2026 | Wednesday | 10:00 PM |
The Coron-to-Batangas voyage leaves at 10:00 PM on Wednesday.
Passengers should confirm whether the trip operates directly to Batangas and ask for the expected arrival day and time before arranging onward transportation.
Manila Departures to Coron, El Nido and Liminangcong
Atienza Interisland Ferries also announced selected Manila departures using different vessels.
Manila to Coron and El Nido via MV June Aster
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 22, 2026 | Wednesday | 3:00 PM | MV June Aster |
The advisory describes this as a Manila-to-Coron-and-El Nido voyage using MV June Aster.
Passengers should clarify the port sequence. The vessel may call at Coron before continuing to El Nido, but the announcement does not provide exact arrival times or stop durations.
Before buying a ticket, ask:
- Is Coron the first port of call?
- Do El Nido passengers remain onboard in Coron?
- Is ticket revalidation required during the stop?
- Are vehicles accepted to both Coron and El Nido?
- What is the estimated arrival time at each destination?
Manila to El Nido Direct and Liminangcong via MV May Lilies
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 25, 2026 | Saturday | 11:00 PM | MV May Lilies |
This voyage is presented as Manila to El Nido direct and Liminangcong aboard MV May Lilies.
The wording of the announcement may refer to service covering El Nido and Liminangcong. Passengers should confirm whether Liminangcong is an intermediate stop, a separate unloading point, or part of the route before reaching El Nido.
Travelers should state their exact destination when booking so that the correct fare, cargo handling, and disembarkation instructions can be provided.
Manila to Coron Direct via MV October Lavender
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 25, 2026 | Saturday | 11:30 PM | MV October Lavender |
The direct Manila-to-Coron trip leaves 30 minutes after the listed MV May Lilies departure.
Passengers should double-check their vessel and ticket because two Atienza trips are scheduled late on the same evening but serve different routes.
The Manila-to-Coron service is assigned to MV October Lavender and is labeled as a direct trip.
Coron Departure Schedule
A separate Coron advisory lists three scheduled voyages.
Coron to Manila Direct via MV October Lavender
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 21, 2026 | Tuesday | 11:00 AM | MV October Lavender |
This direct trip from Coron to Manila is scheduled for Tuesday at 11:00 AM.
The announcement identifies the service as RORO for vehicles, passengers, and cargo.
Coron to Batangas Direct via MV Star San Carlos
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 22, 2026 | Wednesday | 11:00 AM | MV Star San Carlos |
The Coron-to-Batangas direct voyage leaves at 11:00 AM aboard MV Star San Carlos.
This departure differs from the separate weekly Batangas-route poster, which shows a Coron-to-Batangas trip at 10:00 PM on the same date. Because the supplied announcements display different times, passengers should treat the schedules as potentially belonging to different vessels or updates.
Confirm which Coron-to-Batangas voyage remains active before purchasing a ticket.
Coron to Manila Direct via MV June Aster
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 25, 2026 | Saturday | 1:00 PM | MV June Aster |
The second direct Coron-to-Manila option leaves on Saturday afternoon aboard MV June Aster.
This gives passengers another published Manila-bound trip within the same week.
El Nido Departure Schedule
The El Nido advisory includes trips to Manila and Batangas, with scheduled stopovers.
El Nido to Manila via Liminangcong
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 20, 2026 | Monday | 5:00 PM | MV May Lilies |
This voyage travels from El Nido to Manila with a stopover in Liminangcong.
Passengers boarding in El Nido should ask how long the vessel will remain at Liminangcong and whether cargo or additional passengers will be loaded there.
El Nido to Batangas via Coron
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 22, 2026 | Wednesday | 11:00 AM | MV Star San Carlos |
The El Nido-to-Batangas service is scheduled to stop in Coron before continuing to Batangas.
Passengers traveling only to Coron should confirm whether they may book the El Nido–Coron segment on this vessel. Those continuing to Batangas should ask whether they remain onboard throughout the Coron stopover.
El Nido to Manila via Coron
| Date | Day | Departure Time | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 24, 2026 | Friday | 6:00 PM | MV June Aster |
This Friday evening trip travels to Manila with a stopover in Coron.
Because it involves an intermediate port, the total journey may take longer than a direct El Nido-to-Manila voyage.

What Does RORO Mean?
RORO means roll-on/roll-off. A RORO vessel is designed to carry wheeled cargo that can be driven or rolled onto and off the ship.
Depending on the voyage and vessel, RORO cargo may include:
- Motorcycles
- Cars
- Vans
- SUVs
- Trucks
- Delivery vehicles
- Commercial cargo
- Passenger baggage
A passenger ticket does not automatically include a vehicle. Motorists must reserve and pay for their vehicle separately.
Vehicle acceptance also depends on deck space, dimensions, weight, cargo classification, documentation, and safety requirements.
Requirements for Passengers Bringing Vehicles
Travelers planning to bring a vehicle should contact the cargo or booking department before going to the port.
Prepare the following when applicable:
- Vehicle certificate of registration
- Official receipt
- Driver’s license
- Valid government-issued ID
- Authorization letter when the driver is not the registered owner
- Booking confirmation
- Vehicle measurements
- Cargo declaration
- Proof of payment
Ask whether photocopies or original documents are required.
Passengers should also clarify whether the quoted vehicle rate includes the driver’s fare, port charges, arrastre fees, insurance, or other terminal expenses.
Booking Questions to Ask
Before confirming a ticket, ask the operator:
- Is the voyage operating on my intended date?
- What is the final departure time?
- Which vessel is assigned?
- Is the trip direct or does it have a stopover?
- What port will the vessel use?
- What is the current passenger fare?
- What accommodations are available?
- What is the baggage allowance?
- Are meals included?
- What is the check-in cutoff?
- Are vehicles accepted?
- What documents are required?
- What is the refund or rebooking policy?
Providing the exact route and date is important because Atienza operates several voyages within the same week.
How Early Should Passengers Arrive?
Regular foot passengers should consider arriving at least two to three hours before departure, unless the company gives a different cutoff.
Vehicle and cargo customers may need to arrive earlier because of:
- Documentation checks
- Cargo assessment
- Vehicle measurement
- Port entry processing
- Security inspection
- Loading sequence
- Payment verification
Late arrival may result in denied boarding even when a reservation has already been made.
Weather and Schedule Changes
Voyages to Coron and El Nido cross open waters where weather and sea conditions can affect operations.
Trips may be delayed, moved, or canceled because of:
- Tropical cyclones
- Strong winds
- Rough seas
- Heavy rain
- Coast Guard restrictions
- Port congestion
- Vessel inspections
- Mechanical concerns
- Cargo-loading delays
Check the latest company notice before leaving for the port. Travelers should also avoid scheduling a nonrefundable flight, tour, or hotel transfer immediately after the expected ferry arrival.
