Instagrammable Guyam island Siargao

Guyam Island is one of Siargao’s most charming sandbar islands a perfect quick escape for swimming, sunbathing, and Instagram-worthy shots. Here’s everything you need to know! - Location:10-15 min boat ride from General Luna - Size:Very small (you can walk around in 5 mins!) - Known For:** White sand, coconut trees, crystal-clear water 🌴 What to Expect ✔ Pristine Beach– Soft white sand, shallow turquoise waters. ✔ Photogenic Spot– Palm trees, hammocks, and a dreamy island vibe. ✔ Snorkeling– Decent coral patches near the edges (bring your own gear). ✔ Relaxation– No big crowds (except midday when tours arrive). 👎 Downsides ✖ **No shade** – Only a few palm trees (bring a hat/sunscreen!). ✖ **No facilities** – Just a small sari-sari store for water & snacks. ✖ **Tiny** – Not for long stays; best for a 1-2 hour visit. How to Get There 1. From General Luna: - Boat Tour:Usually part of the 3-island hopping tour** (Guyam, Daku, Naked Island). - Private Boat:₱1,500-2,500 for a roundtrip (good for groups). 2. Boat Ride Time:10-15 mins. Best Time to Visit - Morning (7-10 AM)– Fewer crowds, cooler weather. - Avoid Noon– Super hot with no shade! 👍 Verdict: 4.5/5 Guyam is not a full-day destination but it’s a must-visit for: ✅ A quick tropical escape ✅ Stunning photos ✅ A peaceful swim #siargao #siargao_island #guyamisland
