Ulap Surf

More Than Just a Surf Lesson — A Complete Siargao Experience

Ulap Surf is clearly run with a lot of passion and care for the guest experience. Ms. Ana Mae is very hands-on, responsive, and always looking for ways to improve what they offer—from surf lessons to wellness add-ons and future packages. What stands out is how much effort they put into making the experience convenient and enjoyable for guests, while also supporting other local Siargao businesses through partnerships. You can really feel that they want visitors to have a complete and memorable experience, not just a surf lesson. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a welcoming, professional, and locally connected surf experience in Siargao.

Siargao Sunset Paddle Board and Firefly Watching

Fireflies to be found in Siargao!

I booked this experience last minute as I had a free afternoon alone, and I’m very glad I did. The guide Lori was punctual, helpful and friendly. She picked me up on scooter from my hotel and we did the paddle board activity in the mangroves first. It was very quiet and peaceful, and I would recommend for people who are confident with water and enjoy nature. They are different to mangroves (no smell here) in other parts of the world as the water level is high and clears the waterways regularly. After paddling back, we went for a drink at a nearby beach bar and waited for the sunset - some good drinks there and nice atmosphere. Once the sun had set, our boatman turned up with a small paddleboat and we went back out to the edge of the mangroves. I thought we’d go further inside the waterways to get away from light pollution but it was still possible to see the fireflies dancing. There was also a bit of bioluminescent plankton in the water, which was fascinating to see. Given it was just me on the trip (as no one else had booked that day), it was an intimate private experience and one I really enjoyed. Thank you so much!
