Our family did a one day diving trip with Damien and his fabulously friendly crew while we were Siargao. You couldn't find a dive centre with friendlier staff. The crew was professional and put some of our less experienced divers through a very comprehensive dive review before we headed out. Damien took some very good pictures of our dives which he had the courtesy to edit and send so we now have a very nice pictorial record. The diving was good and the food and beverages at the dive centre were great. If you're in Siargao and want to do a dive or two I would highly recommend Palaka.

Galatea

Galatea is Siargao's finest and most relaxing cruise boat. She has a spacious and comfortable deck that's great for lounging. She is quiet but fast. She has a very friendly and safety-minded crew. Join us in 1 of our scheduled trips around the Islands of Siargao, or charter us for the day. Perfect for island cruising, surf Safaris, family trips, and parties!

A nice comfortable boat, good food, drinks, very attentive staff, yummy food and turquoise-colored waters. It was one of the best day of my life. And MacMac? Can we take you to Manila? The food you made for us was really delicious. Thank you Bianca for being so patient in answering my messages. Hope to see you again with some of my friends.

I spent a week in Siargao, mainly attracted by the promise of good surf in paradise water. Went around the various places that rent surfboards and by far Fatlips is the best in town. Not only it provides the choice of best boards (surftechs...) but...MoreThank you so much for your review and we promise we'll keep doing whatever we can do to make everybody's experience in Siargao as positive as yours!

Reviewed By Sam B

I've been looking forward to learning how to kiteboard for several years and finally had the chance with Viento Kite School! Their thorough instruction was clear and made learning fun and easy! We ended up squeezing 3 days of instruction into 3 hours! By the end of the 3 hours I learned to stand up and go downwind. These guys are the bee's knees and I would recommend them a million times over! Go get some!

Acoustic Night at Buddha's Surf Resort

Most Thursdays we hold an acoustic night open to the public. Local musicians play some of their favourite island tunes. It's a perfect way to sit back relax and get to know the locals. You don't have to be a guest at the resort to spectate and enjoy the music - tourists staying all over Siargao come and enjoy the music on a thursday. *Acoustic night happens infrequently in the wet season and is a spontaneous event for when the local musicians feel like they want to jam!

Reviewed By Trudy A - Boracay, Philippines

Buddha's Surf Resort Acoustic Nights are great fun and, on this occasion, was visited by Stephen Lu of Pinoy band Rizal Underground, who had a jamming session a day earlier at Kermit's with local musicians, Midras, Manuel (Wilmer), Inigo and Marlow. A great set also by Midras, Manuel and Marlow, and from local artist and singing sensation Kitya. I would recommend the Acoustic session as a great night out and a great way to meet some of the super fun locals

If watching the sunset and cruising around on a boat sound like something you’d like then don’t miss our biweekly sunset cruises. Our fun filled cruises will take you from the General Luna pier, passing through some of the most beautiful Islands off the coast and straight to your happy place. This all inclusive tour will make sure you are well fed, all you can drink beer/rum, and our DJ will make

Reviewed By Blanca N

What an Awesome Experience! These guys make sure that you have a good time. Best way to explore the Islands of Siargao!
We join them two times on a trip to Corregidor Island and in a sunset cruise, the boat is amazing. Very big and comfortable, with music, soft seats, lot of space and delicious food included. If the rains come, don't worry you are totally covered. Ezekiel and Chris made our days fantastic. So nice people, so cool atmosphere and very fun activities.
I totally recommend making boat trips with them and their boat Marco Polo to explore the wonderful Islands of Mam-on and Corregidor, and to have fun the sunset cruise with Dj and fun party.
Salamat Lupita Adventures! your boat makes the difference ;)

Siargao Fishing

Reviewed By Sw8Luv - Cagayan de Oro, Philippines

Speechless but read my lips as i whisper "WOW!" Indeed that was a great experience. It doesn't even matter if it rained or hot sunny day. I experienced my first driving experience. Dune buggy's so great for tourists who doesn't even know how to drive a motorbike (the main form of transportation in the island). It's a four wheel drive with automatic features. Me and my boyfriend had a great tour around General Luna with this dune buggy and we enjoy the ride even under the rain. As to my experience with Captain Mike's boat, that was awesome! The boat's designed to withstand upcoming waves and pretty automatic too with detectors so you would know how deep you're going and if any chance of fish around. The Captain's been so accommodating and easy to get along with. I can also tell He knows well what he's doing, very reliable, and knows the place so much. He can name all the Islands around Siargao. Though it was not my first time to be on waters, that was my first to fish on an open blue waters facing pacific. I love the mountainous swell and enjoyed it more when we spotted a school of tunas and barracuda jumping off the waters behind us. It was fun indeed and want more during the summer time. Looking forward to catch my own fish too!

Reviewed By Robert T - Manila

I went to this resort on an afternoon bike trip. The owner was there and advised me to come back when it was cooler. That will make me come back when an owner will advise you not to play until it's cooler. The pool overlooks some of the golf holes. This will be one of the great stops on your vacation to the Island. Come and stay a day or more. It's quiet and the views from the top are the best. Great people, Great place.
