A Getaway on Daku Island

Daku sits among the islands close to Siargao and makes for an ideal day excursion with loved ones. The island boasts fine sand beaches, crystal-clear waters and a variety of water activities, along with restaurants and basic amenities for your comfort.

Upon arrival, you'll stroll along a palm-fringed beach, take in the turquoise waters and walk across fine sand. When the sea is calm, dive in for a swim, try snorkeling or simply relax in the shade of beachside huts. You'll also discover local life—watch fishermen at work, explore their shelters and sample fresh seafood stands. At low tide, sandbars emerge, inviting you to walk or swim across new stretches of water.

Best Time to Visit the Island

Plan your visit between March and May for the best experience. During this season, weather is dry, temperatures are pleasant and the sea remains relatively calm. This is the ideal window for boat crossings and water activities. To get the most from your visit, depart in the morning to enjoy the tranquility and more open spaces.

How to Get There

Depart from General Luna and head directly to Daku Island. Daily, boats leave the harbor as part of island-hopping excursions—a beloved circuit that also takes you to Naked Island and Guyam Island. Board your vessel, cross the bay and arrive at one of the region's most beautiful beaches in under half an hour.

If you'd prefer more flexibility, contact a local operator and arrange a private boat transfer on your schedule. You choose your departure time, set the pace of the day and decide on your stops.
