solo exploring eastern mindanao in 4-days
saturday to thursday august 04-09, 2012
I spent the night before in downtown area of Butuan city , Agusan del sur where the main road bound to surigao city is just a walking distance.
how to go here:
there is flight from cebu pacific directly on manila-siargao bound. If coming from Butuan city, ride a bus or a van bound to surigao city with approximate travel time of 3 hours. Then, ride a multicab just infront of the surigao bus terminal bound to surigao pier. Ferry fare cost range from 180 to 250 pesos depending the boat that will depart.
Schedule of ferry from surigao pier to Dapa pier of siargao island (2012):
0545H, 0600H, 1200H daily
Schedule of ferry from Dapa pier to surigao city (2012):

Siargao
Island is a tear-drop shaped island in the province of Surigao del
Norte. It has a land area of approximately 437 square kilometers. The
east coast is relatively straight with one deep inlet, Port Pilar. One
of the best known surfing waves on Siargao and the Philippines, with a
worldwide reputation for thick, hollow tubes is "Cloud 9". This
right-breaking reef wave is the site of the annual Siargao Cup, a
domestic and international surfing competition sponsored by the
provincial government of Surigao del Norte. Siargao is well known as "The Surfing Capital of the Philippines" with a reputation among surfers within the Philippines and the International scene.
