“Siargao” is located in the province of Surigao del norte the “Surfing capital of the Philippines”. I’ve been in different Islands in the philippines but this is one of my best place. 💙
We stayed in Siargao Bleu Resort. This resort is rated as a luxury resort in Siargao Island, We stayed there for just one Day just to experience this kind of view.
When we arrived at the resort, the receptionist greeted us, and give some fresh coconut. They’re all so approachable and nice.
The villa beside the pool...
The hallway that full of different kinds of flowers, love it.
On the second day morning we went to “magpupungko beach” by riding a motorbike,(I was the driver) We rent it in the hotel.
(Don’t worry If you don’t know how to use motorbike they also offering scooters.
There’s also a “habal-habal” motorcycle and private cars that you can rent for the back and forth trip.) Before going to magpupungko beach, we checked out at the resort and transfer to the mid-budget resort “ocean 101 resort” it’s quite near in the first resort that we’ve been. This resort also had a amazing view, we chose the sea front room and this is our view.
The reception area and the resto bar, they also have a band performance at night.

Third day, We had our breakfast at shaka this resto has a delicious, healthy, vegetarian friendly, and the best power bowls.
I got the best seller its called “bom dia”...
I also have a tea “ chamomile flower tisane”
After breakfast, We went back to the resort coz our boat service already arrived...
We have a Island tour and we’re going to three islands, First stop ( Naked Island )...
When I got to the shore then walked a little bit, I saw this...
Second ( Daku Island ) we had our lunch there.
(The island have a small resto that you can choose fresh seafoods and also pork. Its all up to you what kind of dish you like). We had a fish soup(tinolang isda) and some delicious desserts. They also giving a delicious mango for free. Awesome.
While having a lunch, I noticed some sleeping local dogs. So adorable.
Third ( Guyam Island) and last...
One of the clearest water (for me)...
On the way back to the resort we stop by at the mexican food stall to have a...
Tacos, perfect!
Last day...
It’s a surfing place but Sadly that time I cannot surf because of my back pain. Next time, I’m pretty sure I’m going to surf!
Then, before heading to the airport we stopped by at the souvenir shop...
I had the amazing time of relaxing, ‘twas a great journey. I really need to plan another comeback trip.
There’s a lot more to visit in siargao not only in the island but in the whole capital (Surigao Del Norte).
For me siargao is still a virgin Island, but when the time comes the island was load of new hotels and restos, plus a heap load of tourists, which are all great things but I do hope that as it becomes more developed the government, locals and tourists learn to take care of the island as well.
Proper waste management, less use of plastic, less littering and implementation of proper sewage and waste water management for all resorts/hotels.
Just so Siargao can remain clean, green and stunning for many years to come!
I’d hate to see it’s beauty destroyed...
One thing I’m sure of that will never change on the island - THE WARM WELCOME of the locals!
Salamat Karajaw! Till my next visit 🤙🏼
