Siargao and Bucas Grande: Itinerary and Expenses

In case you wanted to know the sequence of events...

Note: Island hopping in Siargao can be done in half a day. Magpupungko can also be visited in just half a day. 
I usually don't do Amazing–Race–paced trips so I spent a day for each.


...and how pocket holes were made.

Note: I did not include the airfare from Cebu to Siargao. I got the ticket at a promo price. Regular one way airfare starts at around Php1200.



Three Days in Siargao:
In and Around Siargao Island
La Isla Siargao Bar and Grill
Magpupungko Then and Now
Three Little Islands
Skales Greek Restaurant

Siargao's Neighbor, Bucas Grande:
Balanghai Kanlunes in Bucas Grande Island
Lagoon, Lake, and Caves

    Sa itinerary to Siargao must-see and must-do talaga yung Bucas Grande tour and Island hopping kaso medyo matataas rates nila compare to other provinces...

      It's not too bad if you go in a big group. Only three of us went to Bucas Grande, thus the huge budget.

      Hi Gene. Sorry, I forgot to take the contact numbers of the boatman for Siargao. For Bucas Grande, it was arranged through Balanghai Kanlunes/Fredie Rosillo http://mustachioventures.blogspot.com/2013/06/balanghai-kanlunes-bucas-grande.html

      Hi Khassy. Thanks for visiting the blog.

      Yes, it is possible, just do the opposite of what we did.
      Or you can catch the boat from Surigao to Bucas Grande. There's one at 11AM, Mondays to Saturdays.
