Mabila port is located in Balut Island, one of the two (2) islands that comprise the Sarangani municipality. The proximity of Mabila to South Cotabato - Sultan Kudarat - sarangani - General Santos (SOCSKSARGEN) socio-economic bloc is a major reason why its trading and commerce are slanted towards Region-XII instead of Region-XI (Davao Region). It is about 3-4 hours away from Glan and about 4-5 hours away from General Santos City by boat or equivalent to 49.84 nautical miles.
