When most travelers think “rainy season” in the Philippines, they imagine grey skies, heavy storms, and canceled adventures. But here in Siargao, it’s a whole different story. At our surf camp and yoga retreat in Siargao green season, the so-called “off-season” might just be the perfect time to visit.
Let’s break the myths, embrace the magic, and show you why the rainy months are your golden ticket to a better, more meaningful island experience.
Plan for Changing Tropical Weather
Weather can vary during your stay in Siargao. Leave room in your plans for rain and changing conditions, and check the forecast close to your travel dates.
Keep your schedule flexible and speak with our team about your dates, surf experience and expectations.
Choose Conditions That Suit Your Level
A seasonal label alone does not tell you whether the surf will suit your level.
Surf conditions depend on swell, wind, tide and the particular break. Small waves are not guaranteed, and falls are a normal part of learning. Our coaches adapt sessions to your experience and the conditions on the day.
What to discuss with your coach:
Your experience, confidence in the water and goals for the session.
- Coaching options for longboarders
Any concerns or support you need before entering the water.
How conditions and local surf etiquette affect the session.

Visiting in the rainy season means slower travel, quieter beaches, and a chance to connect with Siargao’s true local spirit.
Here’s what makes it special:
Intimate classes, personal surf coaching.
Lower prices on flights and stays.
More authentic cultural experiences.

What Else Can You Do Besides Surf and Yoga?
So much!
Nature walks through coconut groves.
Community dinners under the stars.
Cooking classes with locals.
Chasing waterfalls (they’re fullest this time of year!).
The vibe is chill, soulful, and welcoming. Whether you come solo, with a friend, or with a group—you’ll find space to breathe and grow.
