Hi sissies!  Just completed our Surigao-Siargao trip and ito yung mga expenses namin...
Group of 6
Cebu-Surigao-Siargao-Cebu - 1,504.46 via Cebu Pacific


Tricycle from Surigao airport to Terminal - 25/head
Van going to Hayanggabon port - 120/head
 Boat from Hayanggabon port going to Cinnamon Resort - 220/head (1,300)
Overnight stay at Cinnamon Resort with Breakfast - 500/head
 Bucas Grande Islands Tour c/o  Cinnamon Resort - 1,490/head (all in)
For lunch and dinner, we bought fresh seafoods in barangays and Cinnamon cooked and prepared it for us  - 465/head

On our way to Siargao, we need to stay for a night in Socorro so we can get the 6am boat going to Siargao. Cinnamon arranged everything from our transportation to accomodation in Socorro.
Tricycle - 30/head
Overnight Stay - 200/head

Boat from Socorro to Dapa port Siargao - 100/head
Tricycle from Dapa port to Cloud 9 to Sayak Airport - 1,000 (good for 6)
Lunch at Aventino Pizza - 983 (drinks, 5 rice meals, choc cake, lasagna, pizza)
Sayak terminal fee - 50/head

After 4 loooonnnnggg years, I will be going back to Siargao. This time I think Siargao lang talaga kami kasi looking back parang ang layu ng byahe namin from Bucas Grande to Siargao and we've only spent a day in Siargao so we never got the chance to explore. Meron bang tour na diretso Bucas Grande to Siargao hindi na dadaaan ng Socorro, private boat maybe? if meron, siguro mahal .  Booked our tickets last night cebupac mga 2,470 RT Cebu-Siargao. Kumusta ang weather sa July?

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

^July ka din Sis? The resort told me may days na maulan pero meron din naman mataas ang araw, so let's keep our hope's up and pray. 

[oolong1]

^yes sis.  May IT na ba kayo?  Where are you staying?

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

^Sandy Feet Siargao, we were supposed to stay at Isla Cabana kaya lang booked na yung room na preferred namin, kayo?

[yannuh]

MagSiSiargao kami sa July. Super excited ko hihi. Kumusta kaya weather nun?

Wala pa din kaming nahahanap na accommodation. Any suggestions mga sis?

Si Kuya Bebot ang highly reco tour guide kaya binook na namin sya agad.

[oolong1]

^^ sis kumuha kami ng package sa kaibigan ng kasama ko.  4.5K per head tour and 4D3N accomodation. Siargao lang kami and no bucas grande tour para relax lang

[althea_ge]

mga sissy pa share naman ng airfare cost Mla-Siargao para may idea ako if reasonable ang price kapag mag book ako thanks...

[kaiz]

^3.5k to 5k. dapat months before your travel date para mura

[tammy1979]

we were able to complete our Siargao trip last week and sulit naman sya sa ganda! Medyo napamahal lang kami sa accommodation kasi ang hirap maghanap, halos lahat ng ininquire ko puro fully booked na.

Share ko lang mga contacts namin in case kailangan nyo.

For the Magpupungko and Sugba Lagoon, we rented a multi-cab since 7 pax kami, paid 3,500. Inclusive na yun ng sundo from Dapa port to our hotel to check in, then to Del Carmen Port for Sugba lagoon. He waited for us to finish then headed to Magpupungko tapos hatid uli sa hotel. Mabait sya and sya rin kinuha namin to go to Dapa port when we're about to go back to Manila. Mas comfy kesa mag rent kami ng 2 trike which charge 400 per trike. We only paid him 700 for that.

His name is Kuya Sohi - 0909-505-2872.

We stayed sa Kokai Resort and others in Vivo Inn. Parehong mahina wifi hehe. Pero when we were walking around, I saw some places na mukhang maayos and mura. I think Pearl's Place [textspeak!] name. Hindi ko sya na try pero I saw their FB page, parang ok naman.

Hi everyone. I will go to Siargao this August 8-12.  I'll be doing solo trip for 2 days while waiting for some friends, they will come from Davao and Surigao. I'm thinking of joining them kasi may extra ticket pa, kaso upon checking the travel time of  Davao to Siargao, almost 12hrs pala kasama na daw tour dun. Mala-amazing race lang. Hahaha. Bahala na si batman....

Aug.08 - via PALExpress clark to siargao. Stay at Kokai's. Okay ba dito?
Aug.09 - tambay mode?? or trip to Socorro and San Isidro
Aug.10 - pagdating ng mga friends... common Siargao Tour
Aug.11 - tambay mode again?
Aug.12 - Back to Manila via Cebupac

I need infos. contacts , where else to go... what else to do. etc etc.
Thank you in advance in sa mga magre-reply.

[shopgirlfox]

Okay, tks sis Kaiz!!!

[vainbutpretty]

 hi sisses,

will be travelling to siargap this coming march

any tips and infos is highly appreciated

[winkar22]

We stayed in Isla Cabana and Siargao Bleu during our honeymoon.

For us, hindi sulit ang bayad sa Siargao Bleu. Pool lang ang maganda. 

We really liked Isla Cabana kaso pricey talaga. Chill ang lugar and yung beachfront is super nice. Nakapag-relax kami ni hubby. Really wanted to stay there during our 5D4N trip kaso mamumulubi na kami. Lol.

[mrs. sweet]

^^aw sayang! we booked Siargao Bleu for our Valentine getaway, fully booked na kasi Isla Cabana.

Any recom for tour guides?

Sandy Feet Siargao - Beach Front Resort , sooooo underrated. Cheaper than most luxury resorts, yet at par sa service and ambiance, well thought of lahat up to the minute details, ang dami and sarap ng breakfast. Konti lang cabana, halos solo nyo yung resort, beach front and white sand din sila, you can borrow their paddle board. It's a gem, kaya pala ganda ng feedbacks OL.  Perfect for families, or honeymooners/couples who wants some peace and quiet.

Sample photo ng breakfast nila:

Con lang is malayo sya sa center, so mahirap magbalik-balik lalo kung gabi na, from the airport, isa sya sa mga unang madadaanan. We rented a motorcycle kaya no issues samin.

Was supposed to book Bayud, Siargao Bleu or Isla Cabana, thank goodness booked lahat last July 2018 preferred naming rooms.
