SIARGO

Siargao is a tear-drop shaped island in the Philippine Sea situated 800

kilometers southeast of Manila in the province of Surigao del Norte. It has a
land area of approximately 437 square kilometres.

HISTORY
The history of Siargao is relatively short from a tourism perspective, but the
region is steeped in history. It all started way back in 1980 when two
foreigners, Tony Arruza and Steve Jones, came to the island during their
search for the perfect wave. They apparently found it within the
municipality of General Luna, and called it Jacking Horse. Their perfect
wave is actually what most people today know as Cloud 9. Until now, Siargao
was known for its waves that couldnt be compared elsewhere.

ATTRACTIONS
Perfect white beaches, enchanting lagoons, caves, sand bars,
coral reefs, bizarre rock formations, exotic wildlife, endless rice
fields, waterfalls, a large mangrove forest reserve... and so much
more...
ACTIVITIES
*ISLAND HOPPING

Naked Island
Our first stop was Naked Island, and no, there are no naked people (in case
you were wondering). It's basically not really an island, it's a 200 meter long
sand bank surrounded by crystal clear turquoise waters and blindingly white
sand! It almost looks surreal! We spent an hour there and we all got an
impressive tan Make sure to bring enough sunblock!

We had our lunch on Daku Island, another stunning place, dotted with
countless coconut palm trees. A small fishing community of 300 residents are
living on the island. The beach is gorgeous with its powdery white sand. If
you love the place you can stay overnight - there are simple beachfront huts.
Keep in mind that there is no electricity on the island.

Guyam Island
Last stop was Guyam Island, a little piece of paradise (picture above). The
island is uninhabited, for one afternoon this place was all our own. It looks
like one of those tiny islands in the Maldives....but hey, it's the Philippines,
and paradise costs a fraction there compared to other tropical islands in the
world. It's the perfect place to take selfies and make all your friends super
jealous.

The Sohoton Caves are ranked as #1 attraction in things to do in Siargao

on Trip advisor. You can rent a kayak and explore the marine reserve and the
natural cave tunnel. Expect to see bats, wild orchids, stalactites and stingless jelly fish.

*MAGPUPUNGKO POOL

Surrounded by bizarre rock formations lies a natural pool that looks like an
infinity pool. It's separated from the ocean by a large reef. During low tide
you can walk on the reef, the sea is calm. The water is incredibly clear in all
shades of blue, green and everything between.
