Time to plan your next visit to Siargao. Stat!
Conde Nast just named Siargao as the best Island in the world. The verdict was made by readers of international luxury magazine Conde Nast Traveler, who also naturally deemed the destination as the best island in Asia. With over 429,000 voters weighing in on the decision for the magazine’s 2018 Readers’ Choice Awards, it’s hard to contest Siargao’s impressive new title.
Joining the best island list are the dramatic peaks of Bora Bora in French Polynesia, the multiple blue stunning waters of Greece and the Seven Mile Beach in Cayman Islands. Not only this, to add to our streak of Pinoy Pride, Boracay, and Palawan were also voted as the second and third best islands in Asia, respectively just after Siargao.
Siargao is well known for being a good surfing spot in the Philippines, but apart from that there are several more and cant-be-missed reasons why you need to visit Siargao and plan your next visit to the Island.
THEY HAVE BEAUTIFUL, ISOLATED BEACHES TO EXPLORE
Philippines is known for pristine shores and azure beaches, and Siargao beaches are nothing far behind these characteristics. Siargao has been open for tourists for a couple of years already but their beaches stays beautiful and serene. If you wanna just chill around their nearby shores, you will be pleased with the list Siargao can offer like Daku Island, Guyam Island, and Naked Island.
YOU HAVE TO VISIT SOHOTON CAVE
A three-hour boat ride away from the village of General Luna lies the Natural Reserve of the Sohoton Caves. The area features a number of caves that can be entered only during low tide, one of which can be exited by jumping off a 20-feet cliff which sounds very exciting. You can also have an up close encounter with non-stingy jellyfish that inhabits one of their lagoons.
TAKTAK FALLS MUST ALSO BE PART OF YOUR LIST
Located in Sta. Monica, you can rent a motorbike and drive your way to Taktak falls. Afterwards, go for a dip and stand under the rush of fresh mountain waters and keep your eyes open for an array of seagoing birds that frequently visit the area.
EXPERIENCE THE MAGPUPUNGKO TIDE POOLS
with its crystal clear waters and breathtaking rock formations, a trip to Siargao wont be complete without the most stunning natural wonders in Siargao, the Magpupungko Tide Pools.
