Siargao Trip Guide

Luna de la Cerna

3 min read

Siargao is probably the most beautiful island I have been to. [but I haven't been in that much really] . The place itself has so much to offer, from surfing, to sight-seeing to even just lounging at the beach. The locals are friendly and very helpful, they would extend their help to the point that they will sit down and talk to you. Foreigners flock the island too, not just the tourist type, but those who decided to stay in the island and make a living and those who surf as part of their lifestyle.. The island life will surely make you fall in love. And that's also why I would always choose Siargao as my go-to place. Once you've had a chance to experience IAO you will come back, over and over again.

My trips to Siargao doesn't really have planned itineraries, we just "wing-it", I just had places I wanted to go, and I start talking to friends and local, that's how I start it. So here's a list of recommended places to check out in the island.

Sunset and Chill

I never met a sunset I didn't love🌅_._.
Let's skip to the good part💦_._._._..
I ran out of poses🤣🤣🤣_._._._._._..

This is Filipino surf culture at its finest. The laid-back-chill lifestyle of Siargao, embracing every inch of the Island life. Leave nothing but footprints and amazing memories. Preserve the place and avoid littering. The fresh coconuts, grilled food, good company and make the most colorful memories you can make. Its far from the busy and touristy as Boracay or El Nido, but it offers so much more than just a beautiful place– and you definitely should come visit while the going is good and it's less popular.
