How to Get There?
Traveling by plane to Siargao is the most efficient way to reach the island. You can fly to Siargao directly from the main jump-off points in Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao – three primary island groups of the Philippine archipelago. You can also choose to fly to Surigao City and then travel via ferry to Siargao Island.
By Flights
Siargao has its own airport, the Sayak Airport, located in the municipality of Del Carmen. Sayak Airport is only connected to domestic destinations.
Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific Air, and Skyjet have regular direct Siargao flights from Manila, Cebu, and Davao. It’s best to book months in advance, as prices can skyrocket the closer you get to your departure date.
If you’re coming from outside of the Philippines, you will have to travel to either Manila-Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Luzon, Mactan-Cebu International Airport in the Visayas, or Surigao Airport and Davao International Airport in Mindanao.
The Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Airport in Luzon would be your jump-off point if your connecting flight is in Manila. NAIA is connected to several international destinations in North East and Southeast Asia, Middle East, Oceania, North America, and Europe. From NAIA, there are direct Manila to Siargao flights to Sayak Airport.
You also have the choice to fly to the Mactan-Cebu International Airport in the Visayas. You can then book Cebu to Siargao flights from there. Cebu is closer to Siargao than Manila so travel time is shorter and plane fares are most likely lower. Mactan-Cebu airport is connected to 21 international destinations.
Another option is to fly to Francisco Bangoy International Airport in Davao, commonly referred to as the Davao International Airport in Mindanao. This airport is connected to Asian destinations like Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan. You can ride a plane to Siargao from Davao airport.
By Flights and Ferry
Some travelers prefer to fly from Cebu to Surigao City and take the ferry to Siargao Island from Surigao Port. This is a considerably cheaper route than flying directly to Siargao from Cebu.
From Surigao City
You can fly to Surigao Airport from Mactan-Cebu International Airport, and then catch a ferry heading to Siargao at the Surigao Port. Cebu Pacific has direct flights from Cebu to Surigao City.
There are daily fast craft trips from Surigao Port to Dapa in Siargao Island. Evaristo & Sons Sea Transport and Atlantis Yohan Express are the primary shipping lines, with ferries plying Surigao City to Siargao Island every day.
