Siargao Wakepark

Siargao Wakepark provides wakeboarding in the surfing capital of the Philippines. It is the newest boardsport on the vibrant island of Siargao. Next to surfing, island hopping, kitesurfing and Stand-up-paddling, it is one of the stand out activities which can be practiced on a hidden lake in between the palmtrees. It's very easy to learn! Anyone can do this...

The Sohoton Tour should be one of the highlights of your Siargao vacation. Although the trip to Sohoton takes about 2 hours, the sights and activities are worth the long travel. You will pass through scenic limestone cliffs and crystal clear waters. You will get the opportunity to cliff dive after passing thru a claustrophobic cavern. If lucky, you will encounter stingless jellyfishes. Never miss this tour when visiting Siargao.

Magpaponko Swimming Hole

Reviewed By 891JonN

Entrance fee is PHP50. A short walk from the entrance to this natural infinity pool. You can only see this pool during low tide. We came around 7am and enjoyed a good swim here. You can also climb up a small rock and jump into the water. Good place to spend 1-2 hours here. There’s lots of eateries near the entrance and hence you can have your breakfast or lunch here

Mabua Pebble Beach

Reviewed By reym804

Looc Pebble Beach Vehicular access is only 2 years yet so the area is somewhat pristine yet. Its another pebble beach besides Mabua Pebble Beach that you can reach through a mountain trail wd 300 step stairs if you dont want to use the road. The beach is completely covered wd smooth pebbles from an inch to about 4 inches in size wd the sand not in sight but under the pebbles that extend to about 50 meters under the water. So the water remains clear since the sand is not disturbed when swimming to make it murky. There is a shower room wd running water in the resort we went to in order to access the beach. We were there on a morning week day so we were the only one on the beach.

Guyam Island

Reviewed By L4048LEsophieh

Hired a wooden boat to do a 3 islands tour for the 2 of us. We went to: Naked Island, Daku Island and Guyam Island. Highly recommend this one day tour, it’s a great value of money and wasn’t busy. The islands are beautiful. Guyam Island was my favorite was super tiny, with palm trees, a couple food places and perfect water. Definitely worth doing and super perfect for photos

Naked Island

Reviewed By Christine_Arisola - Cebu City, Philippines

This was the 2nd stop in our island hopping trip and this place I was soo sold out with.. I never wanted to leave not when I was feeling hungry for lunch which we had in Daku Island, but this was amazingly instagrammable and a #goals island to be in when visiting Siargao there were boats that can freely dock even a yacht was there when we visited (so #goals ????????????). Took soo much photos to our heart's content. It was so fun for videoing instagramming beach bumming and even beach sports like volleyball. I wasn't able to snorkel coz it was just all sand and some fish when I dipped, the current was also strong when I visited but it wasn't really strong to create big waves just enough to have fun all day♥♥ For more photos (the MB size is limited here) or if you have questions or if your planning to visit Siargao or Cebu (my hometown????) or Bohol (captured my heart) follow and DM me in Instagram @christine.arisola ♥♥♥

Sugba Lagoon

Reviewed By gdsshanghai

This is one of the things you must do when you are in Siargao. First you need to go all the way to Del Carmen, around 45 minutes from General Luna. Then once at Del Carmen go to the pier and hire a banka. After 30 minutes of boating enjoying the mangrove, amazing scenery and the engine noise you’ll get to Sugba Lagoon, an amazing place for kayaking, paddling, jumping/diving, swimming or whatever you are inspired to do.
