Overview
Show
Discover the quieter northern side of the Siargao area on a private San Benito island-hopping experience. Instead of following the busiest routes near General Luna, this tour visits remote beaches and less-developed islands where the scenery feels peaceful, raw and far removed from the main tourist circuit.
The main route covers Dahican Beach, Kangkangon Island, Pagbasayan Island and Kampayas Island. Spend the day swimming where conditions allow, relaxing on white-sand beaches, taking landscape photographs and snorkelling when the sea and visibility are suitable.

Hotel pickup — approximately 8:00 AM
Meet your driver at the hotel or pickup landmark entered during booking. Travel by van toward San Benito. If needed and operationally possible, the driver can stop before the boat trip so your group can buy packed food, drinking water and other supplies.
Arrival at Dahican Beach
Meet the local guide and boat crew near the usual departure area. Receive the safety briefing, prepare your belongings and board the private boat assigned to your group. Dahican Beach may also provide time for photographs or a short beach stop depending on the day's plan.
Kangkangon Island
Explore the beach and surrounding water at Kangkangon. Snorkelling may be possible when current, waves and visibility are suitable. Follow the guide's instructions and do not enter the water when conditions are considered unsafe.

Continue to Pagbasayan for quiet coastal scenery and island time. Walk along the beach, take photographs or relax near the shore. Facilities are limited or absent, so carry out everything you bring.

Policies
Show
- I understand the full online payment, cancellation, no-show and severe-weather policies.
- Full payment is required online at booking. Cash is not available.
- The tour operates only when sailing is permitted and the guide and boat crew consider conditions safe. Light rain does not automatically cancel a trip, but weather, tides, waves, currents, visibility or official restrictions may change the route, stop order, activity options or departure time. If the Philippine Coast Guard or relevant local tourism authority denies sailing permission because of severe weather, the affected tour is eligible for a full refund. A full refund also applies when an official lockdown or local-government restriction prevents entry to Siargao. If a flight or ferry is cancelled because of severe weather, the booking may be rescheduled to another available date within the year without an additional rescheduling charge. Evidence may be requested, and the new date remains subject to availability. Guest cancellations made more than three days before the tour or arrival date are eligible for a full refund. Cancellations made within three days before arrival are subject to a 50% deduction from the total tour cost. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the tour are non-refundable. Notify TravelGO at least three days before arrival if the number of guests changes. A guest who does not join without timely notice may still be charged. Changes to group size or arrangements can change the tour price, and any additional cost must be paid as instructed. The verified cancellation and payment terms displayed during checkout and on the confirmed booking apply. Do not display contradictory promises elsewhere on the page.
- The islands do not need to be visited in the order shown above. The guide may change the sequence, shorten a stop, replace the picnic location or omit an unsafe destination because of tides, weather, sea conditions, local access or operational requirements.
