Recent reviews GODSUPREME S. ★★★★★ — Ferry service to oron in akwa ibom state, cameroun, bakassi etcdozzie M. ★★★★★ — This is where you enter a speed boat from Calabar to Oron. It's managed by individuals, so service is very Nigerian.
But they are polite and nice, though.
It's takes about 30 minutes to get from Calabar to Oron. And the fare cost about #8,000.3
