SIARGAO: SURFING JUGGERNAUT OF THE PHILIPPINES - DAY 2

Regeneration completed! That's how I felt after I woke up from a coma-like sleep I had the first night. After yesterday's feat to 8 long hours of travel (from Tagum City to Siargao) and the island hopping thereafter, we didn't manage to recuperate and wake up from a presumed nap that struggling night that leaves us to a no dinner wrap for day 1. To try, eat and dash in the island's restaurants are our supposed activity that evening and since we missed it, it's definitely the thing we look forward to conclude the second night.

What's up for our itinerary in Day 2 is to come upon the famous rock pool in Magpupungko in the morning being the typical low tide time of the day (as per observation, from 8am-3pm I think is the ideal time). After the rock pool, we went to the surfing site in Siargao- The Boardwalk. With regards to the relativity of the blog title to the pictures below, my apologies to you (let's say I have a lot of readers) that I didn't manage to capture some significant waves to inspire you from going for the camera won't allow the distant range of the subject to be captured and it's getting dark.  See also Siargao - Day 1.


HOW TO GET HERE: For foreigners, the best is to take a direct flight from Cebu to Siargao Island catered only by Cebu Pacific airlines. Domestically, you can travel Surigao City by land from Davao City (Ecoland Bus Terminal) for 6 hours and head to Surigao City Port & Ferry Terminal to Ride a Ferry Boat to Dapa Port in Siargao Island for 3 hours. If you bring your own vehicle you can leave your car for a fee of Php 150 in Tavern Hotel but if you want to bring your vehicle to Siargao Island it will cost you Php 3000 fee for transporting it in the barge.

SIARGAO: SURFING JUGGERNAUT OF THE PHILIPPINES - DAY 1

Siargao is known for the world for its surfing waves and thick hollow tubes best known as "Cloud 9" derived from the local chocolate bar in the Philippines. Unfortunately, we were not able to see the waves at it's strongest and the best time to lay eyes on it during the day. Moreover, you cannot afford to be sad about it because there's more of Siargao than the surfing waves alone. It's such a rough first day because of the tiring and long land travel but it's worth the butt sore. See also Siargao Day 2.
