Roundtrip from Batangas to Calapan City via Fastcat Ferry

Very clean and organized

See the picture above? See how clean it is? Not to mention how organized the seating arrangement is.. This is the first impression that Fastcat Ferry gave us while aboard and bound to Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro. 🙂

Last December, we got to visit Calapan City for the second time. During our first visit, we got to experience for the first time to ride a Ro-Ro vessel, via Montenegro Lines. And coming back to Batangas, we rode the 2Go vessel, which was formerly Supercat. But for me, the best ride you can take to Calapan City is via the Fastcat Ferry. It’s faster than the usual Ro-Ro vessels, as travel time is one and a half hour, instead of three hours. The ride is also more tolerable than the 2Go vessel, as we barely felt the waves even though it’s just a bit bigger than a 2Go vessel.

Upon arrival at the Port of Calapan

We rode Fastcat Ferry on our way to Calapan City and also on our way back to Batangas City. We just can’t get enough. 🙂 It’s definitely more convenient. The snack bar also has more choices for passenger. More than just the usual instant noodles. There are sandwiches and hot meals, mineral water, coffee, and variety of canned and bottled beverages. There are also souvenir items of Fastcat for sale.

Most of all, we love the seats and the view from the seat. 🙂 From my seat, it felt as we were on a cruise as we glide smoothly by the sea.
