[2025 General Luna Attraction] Travel Guide for Guyam Island (Updated Mar)

Guyam Island is part of a group of islands in the Surfing Capital of the Philippines, Siargao. It is situated off the coast of General Luna town and serves as one of the three widely visited islands in Siargao; the others being Naked Island and Daku Island. Guyam Island is a privately owned property with caretakers to keep an eye on the tourists and collect entrance fees. Strategically located in a tropical country, Guyam Island is famous for its small stretch of white sand beach and abundant marine life. There are snorkeling areas located around the island where reefs and coral rock formations are found. Tourists can enjoy surfing near the island as the waves here are ideally strong enough for the surfboards. The island is uninhabited similar to the nearby Naked Island and currently does not have any accommodations or cottages. Visitors can only take shade under the palm trees dotting the area. This island is also small enough that visitors can travel around the island on foot within fifteen minutes. The beach is very open for picnics and family activities.

There are so many awesome things to do on Siargao Island but one of the most popular activities is to get off the island and go island hopping from Siargao. There are three beautiful islands only a short long-tail boat trip away from General Luna, which is the tourist part of Siargao. Guyam Island, Daku Island, and Naked Island are the three stops along the tour, which includes pick-up, drop-off, and a seafood lunch. The alternative is to book an entire boat from a local at the wharf, which ranges from 1,500 to 2,000 pesos, which is about $30-40. You can then pile in 5-10 guests depending on the size of the boat. This will not include lunch and may not include entry fees. That depends on how you organize it with the boatman. You can buy fresh fish and seafood from the dock in the morning, take it to Daku and have the local shop barbecue it for you. Or you can just buy a local lunch for $1-2 before you leave. Ask any of the guesthouses you may be staying at if they know a boatman. You won’t need to ask more than two people before you find a guy. #urbanexplorer #MaydayTrip #uniquelodging#eventcelebration#templeblessed#uniquehotel#ancientlandmark
