hello…..

every time i visit siargao island,,, always thrills my self,,,the waves,the rides,and the people that welcome open arms……but most of all the fresh air and sea foods served….and the relaxing ambiance of the beach…..it pulls out stress…..

Hi Casey,

Sorry about that. They used to have a link I think regarding wind conditions. No idea though what would be the average wind speed in Siargao around November although traditionally the waves are bigger around that period because of the storms moving somewhere in the Western Pacific. Try this website. http://www.windfinder.com/ and http://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/wxmap_cgi/index.html.

PAG-ASA also has a predicted mean sea-level wind forecast at http://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/wb/wxfcst.html.

Hope that helps!

Hi Guys,

I am wondering if someone could fill me in on a great place to stay, with reasonable prices, in Burgos, Siargao. We have a couple of kids and are wanting a place within walking distance to the beach on the surf side? I’ve, so far found two places, Marcos & Bohemian Bungalows. Marcos seems way too pricey and bohemian haven’t replied, so I am wondering if there are any alternatives for accommodation.

Thanks,
Dan

Hi Nikolas,

I spoke with some of the people from Surigao today. 1300-1500 a day would be a good deal, A/C room, surf board rentals, meals. Please check with the tour agent if meals are included. If you are still unsure about the rates, and your gut feel tells you to not take it, please don’t – please check this website – http://www.surigaodelnorte.gov.ph, email- ppdosurigaonorte@yahoo.com; call (+6386)2319271. Surigao del Norte Tourism Office.

Cheers,

Ryan
