TRANSFER VIA TABLAS AIRPORT

from Manila/Clark Airport to Romblon via Tablas Island

Traveling via Tablas Airport is one of the quickest and most convenient ways to reach Romblon Island. Sunlight Air offers direct flights from Clark International Airport (CRK) to Tablas Airport (TBH) on Tuesdays and Saturdays only, making Clark an excellent option for guests arriving from overseas or traveling from Central Luzon and nearby areas.
Clark is an international airport with direct flights from Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, Qatar, the UAE, and other countries. Many guests choose to fly internationally directly to Clark to avoid the additional 2–3 hour land transfer between Manila (NAIA) and Clark (CRK).

From Clark, it is just a 75-minute flight to Tablas, followed by approximately 2 hours of private land and boat transfers to The Three P Beach Resort.

Arriving in Manila? You Can Easily Connect to Clark

If your international flight arrives at NAIA in Manila, you can continue to Clark International Airport by P2P bus or private van. The P2P bus is a convenient and economical option, while a private van offers greater flexibility around your flight schedule. The journey takes approximately 2–3 hours, depending on traffic.

When planning your connection, be sure to allow enough time to disembark in Manila, collect your baggage, clear customs, and complete the overland transfer to Clark before your flight to Tablas.

Public Boat & Ferry Options

Public boats and ferries operate between San Agustin and Romblon, although schedules are limited. Same-day connections with the Sunlight Air flight are generally only practical in one direction.

San Agustin → Romblon

  • 4:30 AM — Montenegro Lines Ferry / StarHorse Ferry
  • 1:00 PM — Regular transfer boat

Romblon → San Agustin

  • 8:00 AM — Regular transfer boat
  • 11:00 AM — StarHorse Ferry

Because public schedules are limited, we generally recommend the private boat for guests traveling on the same day as their flight, particularly when reliability and timing are important.

Alternative: Ferry from Manila

If you prefer a slower, more relaxed journey or would rather avoid an early flight, you can travel from Manila to Romblon by Starlite Ferry. From Manila, you’ll first travel by private van or bus to Batangas Port, where you’ll board the ferry to Romblon.

Ferry Information

It is also possible to combine the two options—for example, traveling to Romblon by ferry and returning by plane, or vice versa.
We can advise you on the best combination based on your travel dates and preferred schedule.

Departing: The Three P Beach Resort → Tablas Airport

→ Please note that this option is only available on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

For your return journey, we will coordinate the private transfers based on your Sunlight Air flight schedule.

  • Resort → Romblon Pier
    Your transfer from the resort to Romblon Pier takes approximately 15 minutes.
  • Romblon Island → San Agustin
    Board your private transfer boat for the approximately 60-minute journey to San Agustin.
  • San Agustin → Tablas Airport
    Your driver will meet you at the port in San Agustin and take you on a scenic 45-minute drive along the coast of Tablas Island to Tablas Airport.

We recommend arranging your pickup based on your confirmed flight schedule to allow ample time to reach the airport.
