Whats with Siargao? Its just the surfing capital of the Philippines.. so what? (hehehe) Sometime ago I was invited with my singapore based friend (wilmar) to have a vacation in Siargao, so for the heck of it and without second thoughts I have packed my bag and said YES! Im not a beach bum nor a nature lover, I just go for the camaraderie and fun and of course the booze (thats exites me duh).. well its a long way to go and overnight seatravel to surigao, then a 2 hour fast craft to siargao island.. so exhausted! Yes the place is great and waves so HUGE.. and t'was fun at all! But next time around when somebody ask's me to go to siargao.. heres my answer.. NO THANKS! hahaha for a personal reason i will never get back to siargao even with a free accommodation and everything.. want to know that reason? just prepare a booze then lets talk!! hahah
How to get there..
1. From Cebu City, take a Surigao bound ship, in our case we board Cokaliong (around 700+ econonmy fare) usually departs cebu at 7pm and arrives surigao 8am.
2. At Surigao port, ask a porter where to get fastcraft ticket for Dapa, siargao (its the gateway to the island 200 economy)
3. At Dapa port, negotiate a habal-habal or a multicab that takes you the resort (fare depends on agreement, in our case we had a pre arrange transpo)
4. A lot of resort to choose from, we opt to stay in Jade Star resort (1500 family room can accomodate upto 10 people)
5. For island activities like surfing, island hopping etc.. you may negotiate the resort owner for arrangement..
Enjoy your stay in Siargao!
