Embarking on a tropical adventure to Lanikai Beach, located in the stunning city of Davao in the Philippines, is an experience filled with crystal clear waters and white sandy beaches. Below are the options on how you can reach this little piece of paradise:
To get to Lanikai Beach, you will first need to fly into Francisco Bangoy International Airport (also known as Davao International Airport), which serves the Davao Region of the Philippines. From there, you can take a taxi or arrange for a hotel shuttle to take you to your next point of transit or directly to Lanikai Beach if your accommodation provides such services.
Upon arriving at the airport, you can rent a car or hire a taxi to get to Lanikai Beach. The journey by car usually takes around an hour depending on traffic conditions. Follow the directions towards Lanikai Beach which is located in the Samal Island region. You might need to take a ferry if coming from Davao City proper to the island.
If you're feeling adventurous and prefer to travel by sea, there are ferry services that depart from the Sta. Ana Wharf or the Sasa KM 11 wharf in Davao City. These ferries will take you to Samal Island from where you can take a short ride to Lanikai Beach.
Once you've arrived, soak up the sun and enjoy the serene beauty that Lanikai Beach has to offer. The trip may seem lengthy but the destination is certainly worth it!
Safe travels!
