worldport PROFILE


Location

The worldport is located some 10 kilometers from the main highway and about one kilometer west of the town proper.  Pasacao lies near the head of a cove bounded on the south west by theBondoc Peninsula and the Burias Island.  It is about 30 kilometers northwest of Naga City.


Sea distance to Manila is 223 nautical miles.

 

Navigational Approach

 The cove is about one mile in extent, but the shore is fringed by a reef, with sand and mud over it, which considerably lessens the available anchor area. The anchorage is in 3 to 5 fathoms (5.5 to 9.1 meters), mud bottom, but is exposed to the southwest. Sometimes, a choppy sea sets in which makes landing on the beach through the surf dangerous.
