SIARGAO

Siargao isn’t only high on waves for surfing but also on the list of the best islands in the world. Witness graceful surfers skillfully balance their way through barrels of big waves or learn to stand up on a wave of your own. The surfing capital of the Philippines, off the northeastern coast of Mindanao, has dozens of surf spots, there surely is a place for everyone.

Named after a native mangrove, “siargaw” or “saliargaw” (Premna odorata), this teardrop-shaped island is more than its perfect swells. Siargao is a raw, unspoiled paradise swathed in coconut palms, surrounded by glistening white sand, beautiful reefs, blue waters, and a cool, relaxed island culture.

This tropical sanctuary in the southern Philippines is a 2.5-hour flight away from Manila, 1 hour from Cebu.

Take a moment to slow down, watch as the pastels in the sky burn and slowly dim, and be charmed by the countryside. Whether you embrace adrenaline-fuelled adventure sports or gentler pursuits, Siargao welcomes you.

Experiences, Tours & Landscapes

Magpupungko Rock Pools

The Magpupungko rock pools are fascinating natural seawater tidal pools. They are best visited at low tide when they are exposed, and are an awesome spot for hours of exploring and cliff jumping. It’s called magpupungko (‘pungko’ in local Visayan dialect means to squat) because of a gigantic rock that appears to be squatting on another rock.

Where To Stay

Nay Palad Hideaway

Located on the southeastern tip of the island of Siargao, the hideaway is nestled between two distinct marine ecosystems. On one end of the property, the hideaway village overlooks the Pacific Ocean and sits just behind the white sand beach that runs along our peaceful, private bay. On the other end, the property faces six square kilometers of ancient mangrove forests and natural waterways.
