Do you believe that one of the world's most excellent surfing spot is part of Philippines? Yes and that is called SIARGAO ISLAND. Siargao Island is the biggest island in the miniarchipelago to the east of Surigao, though still relatively unknown amongst travellers. It is blessed with a tropical backdrop that in places could have straight out of a picture book, with more palms than you could count, white beaches, an azure ocean and deserted offshore islands. The infrastructure for tourist is still modest, so it's too early to expect much in the way of transport and accommodation. Most international visitors chiefly value the island because of its excellent surf, especially from August to October on the east coast which faces the Pacific. At least a dozen breaks have become popular, including Tuason Point, Cloud Nine, Rock Island, Pilar Point and all north of General Luna and reachable on foot or by boat. And in south of Union there's Pansukian Reef, and further south out on the island of La Janosa and Antokon huge breakers are just waiting for surfers to experience them. The annual Siargao International Surfing Cup takes place in October. So, if you are planning to go for vacation in the Philippines, I encourage you to visit Siargao Island I'm sure you like it.
