A seven-lane ferry able to carry 37 ten-wheeler trucks set the tone for Surigao City in June 2026, when it opened the first all-RoRo link between Mindanao and Luzon, sailing to Bulan in Sorsogon. The port, at the northern tip of Mindanao in Surigao del Norte, is primarily a ferry and roll-on/roll-off gateway, complemented by services to neighbouring islands such as Leyte and Dinagat. For forwarders this means accompanied truck and trailer traffic and some general cargo rather than large-scale container handling. The wider Surigao area is a major nickel-mining district, but its direct-shipping ore is usually loaded at mine anchorages, not over the city quay. Road links carry freight into the Mindanao hinterland. Shippers needing container services or international customs clearance turn to Cagayan de Oro or Davao.
