Surigao City, the capital of Surigao del Norte province in the Philippines, is one of the country’s oldest port towns. It connects Mindanao to Luzon through Eastern Visayas and has several lovely attractions that make the trip worthwhile.

One of its finest touristic draws is the small fishing village called Day-asan Floating Village, the Little Venice of the city. Its laidback feel and serene surrounding are the ultimate soul food. Then, you can head to Mabua Pebble Beach and enjoy soaking in crystal clear waters set against gigantic and well-protected pebbles.

Surigao City is your gateway to Mindanao. You can explore the rest of Surigao del Norte Province as well as Surigao del Sur. Siargao Airport is also an alternative gateway to Siargao Island & Sohoton Lagoons in Bucas Grande Island.

If you want to take a break from islands and beaches? Surigao del Sur province has many extraordinary sights for the off-beat traveler. See the majestic Tinuy-an Falls and bizarre Hinatuan Enchanted River.

Where to Stay in Surigao City

Click below & search recommended Surigao City hotels/hostels/home rentals within your budget. Remember to set your min/max price, travel dates, and sort by review ratings. I often book online with these trusted booking sites below for rock-bottom prices & convenient bookings.

Book sooner rather than later if you already have your dates set. Cheaper-priced rooms and hotels with high reviews tend to get fully booked faster, especially during busy days like weekends, holidays & peak tourist seasons.
