Sugba Lagoon

Written by The Traveller's Chronicle PH

It's definitely a paradise hidden within islands and hectares of magroves forest. About an hour boat ride from Del Carmen, Sugba Lagoon is one of the most popular place to go in Siargao. This spectacular lagoon is surrounded by mountains and mangroves.

Once you reach the Sugba Lagoon, you will dock at a hut which is built in the middle of the lagoon. There are plenty of things to do there so you definitely won’t get bored. You can jump right into the cold water of the Lagoon from a platform made by locals.You can do stand up paddle boarding or just swim. If you get tired, you can rest at the hut and enjoy the view of the Lagoon.

You can also add to your itinerary the Kawhagan Island just nearby the Sugba lagoon. The island has a long white sandbar which you can enjoy.

Lasala Elementary School, Brgy. Caub, Del Carmen, SDN.

Written by Rolan Garcia 

4 months ago, with no itinerary or coverage for the day, the team decided to do road trip and check the Siargao Circumferential Road. In the peaceful town of Del Carmen, Siargao Islands, famous for Sugba Lagoon and longest continous mangroves in the country, we met a lot of new friends, share their hopes, dreams and share their hobbies like fishing! We promise to ourselves we will come back next year.

Last February 16, the Black Pencil Project volunteers traveled to Brgy. Caub, Del Carmen, Siargao Islands for the fulfillment of School-In-A-Box campaign of Black Pencil Project in partnership with Moneygram Foundation. Last mile study kits were given to 350 learners in the islands to help boost class participation and reduced absenteeism.
