Ticao Tacdugan Beach Lodge
A small beach lodge on the same Tacdugan shore as the big dive resort, at local rates. The cheapest way to sleep on that side of Ticao. Expect a simple room, not a resort.

What to know
- •Very few reviews online (one, and not a good one). Go in with modest expectations and see the room first.
- •Same stretch of coast as Ticao Island Resort, so the same boat access and the same dive sites.
- •Rates on request.

The dive resort that put Ticao on the map, and the reason most foreign visitors come to Masbate at all. Eleven beachfront bungalows facing the Ticao Pass, a PADI dive centre on site, and the Manta Bowl a boat ride away. Remote on purpose. There is nothing else within walking distance, which is the point.
The comfortable option on Ticao: a small boutique resort with a pool, a clubhouse and beachside dining, rather than a dive camp. Good if you want the island without giving up a proper bed and a cold drink by the water.
A local beach resort with a function hall attached: the place San Jacinto uses for weddings, reunions and barangay events rather than a dive holiday. Handy if you want to be near the town rather than out at Tacdugan.
