Best Time to Visit Siargao, Philippines

When to go to Siargao

Siargao has two trips inside it. Surfers want September to November when Cloud 9 reliably fires. Everyone else wants March to May when the rain stops and the lagoons sparkle. December and January are the worst of both worlds: rain and inconsistent surf.
