Today, we’re embarking on a journey together, unraveling the beauty of Siargao’s beaches, one wave at a time. So, grab your sunscreen, let’s dive in!
1. Mam-on Island
Our first stop, a little over an hour from General Luna on a traditional bangka boat, is the stunning Mamon Island. The serene atmosphere, fine white sand, and the bluest of blue waters have earned it the top spot on our list. Trust us, one step on this island, and you’ll feel like you’ve walked into a postcard!
2. Alegria Beach
Heading north from General Luna, we find ourselves at Alegria Beach after about a 1.5-hour motorbike ride. With a rugged rocky shoreline, contrasting against the purity of white sand and clear blue waters, Alegria Beach is a visual delight. This beach is pure, unadulterated tropical bliss. Hungry after your ride? Make sure to drop by the BLISS Restaurant in Siargao, where the food is as enticing as the beach view.
3. Doot Beach (The Secret Beach)
Shhh! We’ve got a secret, and it’s called Doot Beach! Close to the famous 5-star resort “Nay Palad Hideaway,” this secluded treasure offers a blend of adventure and relaxation. Here, you can go kayaking, try stand-up SUP paddling, or just kick back on a hammock sipping fresh coconut water. Bliss, right?
4. Corregidor Island Beach
Ahoy, matey! Next up is Corregidor Island Beach. Its lush greenery and rugged landscapes are so breathtaking, they could give the set of Pirates of the Caribbean a run for its money! The beach, lined with palm trees right up to the water’s edge, is the stuff of dreams.
5. Pacifico Beach
Just an hour’s ride from General Luna, near the quaint village of San Isidro, lies Pacifico Beach. It’s the perfect escape from the buzz, where all you hear is the sound of the waves serenading the shore. This beach is an undiscovered gem waiting to be explored.
6. Magpupungko Beach

7. Kawhagan Island Sandbar
Our next stop is a pure, white sandy beach that pairs perfectly with a trip to the Sugba Lagoon – Kawhagan Island Sandbar. It’s a bit of a journey from Siargao, but the serene atmosphere and lack of crowds make it worth every moment.
8. Cloud 9 Beach
Surf’s up at Cloud 9 Beach! Known worldwide for its thrilling surfing wave and the bustling Siargao Pier, this beach is a hotspot for surfers and spectators alike. While it may not be ideal for a swim, the energy here is truly contagious!
9. Naked Island Beach, Daku Island Beach, Guyam Island Beach
Last, but not least, these three islands are a part of the iconic 3-island hopping tour. Naked Island is simply a sandbar in the middle of the ocean, while Daku and Guyam islands offer shady palm trees and small beachfront eateries, perfect for a quick snack or a refreshing drink.
