I'm with my friend so we divided our tour fares and our stay in Siargao for two.

Siargaonons are friendly and accommodating especially those "habal-habal'' drivers in Dapa. Most of them will help you to look for an affordable room to stay and discounts during your tour. If you know how to drive a motorbike, you can rent it for P1,200-1,500.

Here are the list places to visit in the Surfing Capital of the Philippines-Siargao:

MAGPUPUNGKO TIDAL FLATS AND LAGOON
One of the popular Siargao tourist spots is the Magpupungko Tidal Flats & Lagoon which seem like pockets of clear water that are only visible during low tide. The place features a beach with strong waves and rock formations. But when the tide recedes, the rock pools with clear emerald green waters surface.


NAKED ISLAND
Siargao's Vanishing Naked Island is a speck of white in the horizon between the blue sky and sea with not a single tree in sight.It is 200 meters of pristine white sand with patches of coral beds in its azure waters. During high tide, the island disappears into the deep blue sea.


DAKU ISLAND
Daku Island from the name itself Daku means big, the biggest island among the three islands in Siargao. It has a powdery-white sand with trees and cottages perfect place to take your breakfast.


GUYAM ISLAND
Guyam Island is one of the three popular islands that are visited in Siargao (the other two are Naked Island and Daku Island). It is an islet that has a small stretch of powdery-white sand and dotted with coconut trees. It also has interesting coral rock formations that are perfect for snorkeling.
