The Best Philippines Surfing Spots
 A surfing paradise for those seeking Philippines surfing is Siargao, located approximately 800 kilometers southeast of Manila. Siargao Island sits just off of the Pacific coast of Mindanao and is the surfing capital of the Philippines. Surfing is best from July to November when strong waves are in constant motion. The powerful wave "Cloud 9" has been consistently mentioned as one of the world's five toughest breaks and has been frequently compared to the famous surf of Hawaii, California, and Australia. Featured in "Surf Magazine", Siargao's "Cloud Nine" is one of the ten best waves in the world. It's a powerful right hand wave that breaks straight out of deep water and focuses it's energy straight at the beach. The Philippine Deep lies east of Siargao Islands and rises from 34,000 feet to a belt of reefs. This deep trench combined with the narrow continental shelf create excellent Philippines surfing in Siargo. The top spots for Philippine surfing: 1. Baler, Aurora Province. East coast of Luzon This totally unexploited coastal town by the Sierra Madre Mountains in the northeast of Luzon carved out its own popularity in the movie, “Apocalypse Now.” The Aurora Surfing Cup is an annual surfing competition held every September in Baler. It is a three-day competition with several different events and an open-to-all surfing clinic.2. Catanduanes Island province off east coast of Luzon. As an island directly lying in the course of Pacific typhoons, Catanduanes is popularly regarded as “Land of the howling winds”. 3. Daet, Camarines Norte Province.
