Klook.com

Siargao Island is facing the Pacific Ocean and best place to view sunrise. But people visit the island not for the sunrise rather for its big and crazy waves perfect for surfing. This is the reason why it was called as the surfing capital of the Philippines because waves can go as high as 10 feet. In addition to surfing, there are other activities that can also be done on the island. Here’s a 48-hour itinerary and guide on our visit to Siargao.
