Three-Island Tour
The three-island trip covers Guyam, Naked, and Daku Islands. Each has its distinct feature, so the experience won’t seem redundant. Take this trip and see for yourself what these islands have to offer.
You can charter a private boat or join a group tour.
By private boat. Head to the wharf and charter a private boat for P1500 – P2000. This is a great option for groups because the rate is per boat, so you can split the cost. However, this does not include lunch and the additional entrance and docking fees. much more info about the islands and corresponding fees below.
By group tour. If you’re traveling alone, you don’t want to deal with finding a boat or preparing food, or you simply want to make friends, we recommend joining a group trip instead. Klook provides this tour. The price covers the boat fees, all the entrance fees, and a boodle-style lunch buffet.

Naked Island
Naked Island
Naked Island is a sandbar that is the typical stop on the way back to the main island. because there isn’t much here, not even trees, the activities are limited. but you can always take lots of photos.
Daku Island
Daku Island
Daku Island is the largest of the three islands and is a whole barangay in itself. It is mainly a fishing village with cottages lined up along the coast. There are also private properties along the beach.
This is a common lunch stop. If you rented a boat, lunch is not covered. but fresh fish and other seafood are available and you can have the locals cook for you. but if you’re on a tight budget you can always bring your own food.
If you’re on a group tour, lunch is typically served as part of the package. You also don’t need to worry about the other fees because these are part of what you paid for.
Entrance fee: P100 per boat
Cottage rental: P250
Guyam Island
Guyam Island
Guyam Island is a small, circular island, typically your first stop for the three-island tour. It has two distinct sides: one side is rocky with strong currents, while the sandy side is much more serene. Smiling ladies with a small box will greet you and cheerfully let you know there’s a fee once you set foot on the island. If you’re not sure what island you’re in, the large letters spelling GUYAM might be a good indicator.
Entrance fee: P30 per person.
Cottage rental: P300
(If you’re on a group tour, this is already included in the package.)
Siargao Land Tour
You can explore the main island and see the wonders it keeps in its jagged corners and lush landscapes. here are the typical stops of the land trip (not in order):
Magpupungko rock Pools
Coconut mountain View
Maasin River
There are numerous ways to do this. You can rent a car or motorbike. but the most convenient is to join a group tour. many group trips also include a stop at Sugba Lagoon, which is located on another island so a boat transfer is added.

Another well-known traveler destination on the island of Siargao is the Magpupungko rock Pools, which affords revelers the chance to take a dip in the crystal clear waters when you get there at the best time.

The location is a 45-minute drive from general Luna. explore the Magpupungko beach if you want to feel some sand below your feet or do cliff-jumping but be extra careful because the rocks are sharp; it would be better to wear protective footwear or aqua shoes.

Sörf yapmak
You’ve come to one of the best surfing spots not only in the Philippines but also in the world, so why not? If you don’t know how to ride the waves, there are various surf lessons provided at the surf break sites. Also, the good thing about Siargao is that it covers all degrees of expertise, so whether you are a newbie or an expert, there’s a surf break that is best for you. Beginner’s surfing lesson starts at P1000 for two hours.
The waves are ideal for surfing all year round, but the best time is from as early as July to as late as January. The waves can become gnarly from September to November. Please be extra careful especially if you are just new to surfing.
Here is the list of Siargao’s surf breaks:
Note: The annual ‘Cloud 9 Surfing Cup’ typically happens in late September or early October, so expect huge crowds during this time. The competition is officially recognized by the world surf league Pro.

Tecrübeli Surfers dansını, tahtanın sonunda üç katlı görünüm güvertesinden kükreyen dalgalarla görebilirsiniz.

Burgos Hindistan Cevizi Yolu
Siargao kalın hindistancevizi ormanlarında örtülüdür. Bazı yollar bu Coco cennetini kesti, bu da güzel bir manzara yarattı. Hindistan cevizi ağaçları tarafından kuşatılan bir şeridin bu özel çekimi, Siargao’daki fotoğraflanan birçok (veya “Instagramable”) noktasının başlığı için güçlü bir yarışmacıdır.
Yemek gezisi!
Kermit Surf Resort and Restaurant’ın tanınmış pizzası-Kermit Pizza!
General Luna Kasabası, adada en fazla ticari kuruluşa sahiptir – tatil köyleri, restoranlar, kafeler ve barlar. Gıda yeri seçimi kolay atılmış veya carinderias’tan uluslararası restoranlara kadar uzanmaktadır. Gıda seçimleri hem yerliler hem de yabancı ziyaretçiler barındırıyor. En çok tercih edilen restoranlardan bazıları Harana Surf Resort & Restaurant, Kermit Surf Resort & Restaurant, Buddha’nın Surf Resort, Mama’nın Grill, Shaka Siargao ve Aventino’nun Pizzeria’sıdır.
Güneş battığında, gece hayatı içeri girmeye başlar. Ve adada çok canlı! Hala diğer gezginlerle dans etmek, sosyalleşmek ve içmek için enerjiniz varsa, partiler genellikle Jungle Disco, Viento, Bravo ve Rumber’de gerçekleşir. Biraları seviyorsanız, Siargao’nun kendi taslak birasını – General Luna Pale Ale’yi denemek isteyebilirsiniz. Harana’da yemek yerken denemek için bir şansım vardı.
Adanın etrafında motosiklet veya bisiklet
Siargao adası-minibüs, üç tekerlekli bisiklet, habal-habal, motosiklet ve bisikletin etrafında dolaşmanın birçok yolu vardır. Siargao motosiklet ve bisiklet dostu bir adadır. Bir gün boyunca bir motosiklet veya bisiklet kiralamak, turistler arasında popüler bir ulaşım seçeneğidir. Siargao çevresel yol size çok pitoresk bir sürüşe davranacak ve sizi adadaki farklı gezgin sitelerine götürecek. Hedefinize ulaşmadan önce bile, yolculuğun kendisi zaten bir cazibe.
Ancak, her zaman güvenliğe öncelik verin! Bir lisansınız olduğundan ve başka kimse yapmasa bile kask giydiğinizden emin olun.
Sorumlu bir şekilde seyahat etmeyi unutmayın
Gelişen turizm endüstrisi, şirket ve iş fırsatları açarak insanların ekonomisi ve geçimleri üzerinde olumlu bir etkiye sahiptir, ancak aynı zamanda olumsuz bir etkisi vardır.
Siargao’nun büyük bir kısmı, bazı bölgelerde meydana gelen sayısız gelişmeye rağmen, hala rahatsız edilmemiş ve bozulmamış. General Luna, Del Carmen ve Soccoro’nun turistik kasabaları için, artan turizmle ilgili faaliyetlerin adadaki etkisini azaltmak için adımlar atılıyor. Bazı şirketler, plastik olanlar yerine metal pipetler kullanmak gibi çevreyi koruma konusunda rolünü üstlenmek için inisiyatif alıyor. Havayolu şirketleri, Cebu Pacific’in girişimi, Juan Etkisi Sürdürülebilir Turizm Kampanyası gibi çaba sarf ediyor ve Everyjuan’ı bu hareketin ne kadar küçük olursa olsun kendi rolünü yapmaya teşvik ediyor.
Bir şeyler satın alarak ve hizmetlerden yararlanarak yerel ekonomiye yardım etmenin yanı sıra, gelecek nesil için varış noktasının doğal kaynaklarını korumaya yardımcı olabilirsiniz. Sadece kendi doldurulabilir su şişelerinizi, eko çantalarınızı getirerek ve çöpünüzü düzgün bir şekilde atarak, zaten büyük bir fark yaratıyorsunuz.
