LPG Swap Dealers near Cebu Yacht Club (Petron Gasul and Solane)
10° 18.8′ N · 123° 57.1′ E
Cooking gas in the Philippines works on a swap-the-bottle system, and the nearest branded LPG dealers to the yacht club sit side by side on the Lapu-Lapu side of Mactan - the place to buy a local cylinder and swap it for full ones for the rest of the cruise.
Practical
Coordinate is the Petron Gasul dealer in OpenStreetMap; a Solane dealer is mapped next door (10.3130°N 123.9520°E), and further Petron Gasul and Solane outlets are mapped across Mandaue and Cebu City. Soggy Paws (2024): for safety reasons the Philippines prohibits refilling propane tanks and uses a swap system, so a boat staying a while should buy a local tank; plan the regulator and fitting adaptor accordingly. In Port Carmen (2021) cruisers had an EC Gas cylinder swapped and delivered by motorcycle from a Mandaue outlet for 945 PHP including delivery, and see the Port Carmen Boatyards entry for an older report of a Danao dealer filling foreign bottles. Cebu authorities campaign against illegal LPG refilling of butane canisters, so do not have disposable canisters refilled. Prices change often - verify locally.
