At last! Sharing to your our 5 Days 4 Nights Siargao Itinerary for my second time. During my stay in Cebu, a friend of mine invited me for a trip to Siargao. It happened on the 13th to the 17th of May, 2018. I said yes for a cheap unplanned Siargao trip and did all the touristy stuff. It’s something I never did during the first trip. This time, I’m with my friend and her colleagues at work.
This time, I never did any research on things to do as there were a Siargao itinerary 5 days being prepared. The leader of the group had her contacts already. We had our accommodation as well. Everything was ready and all I needed is to experience and pay – hassle free.

Getting drunk, not having enough sleep and catching a flight was the worst thing ever happened in my life. I tried my best not to throw up and fortunately, I never did. We went to Rum Bar with our own motorbikes together with the other three guys from my hostel.

Hi. I would like to go to Siargao but I absolutely had no clue about it until I read your blog. I would like to ask if did you book ahead of time for the places you mentioned? and if yes, where? Do I need to move from one accommodation to another depending on which part of Siargao I would like to visit or that’s is absolutely not necessary?
Thank you.
Hi April!
Sorry for the late reply as I was busy. I book thru Agoda, AirBnb… You can actually book in advance pero pwede rin on the spot. But better in advance baka may time super full ang Siargao due to peak season.
