dako island

The beach is good but you have to be careful in swimming because of the current. Good for swimming but not for snorkeling. It was expensive to rent a cottage in just an hour, in short overpricing. What we have is a fish for 60 peso and the cooking charge is 100 peso. It's crazy.

No words enough to describe the beauty of Dako Island. Amazing! I wish everyone can see it in this state before it gets discovered.Not one for snorkelling as the corals have been destroyed by dynamite fishing. But the beach is beautiful. Huts available to laze in. And a sari-sari store on the beach.

Everytime I am in Siargao Island, I always visit Daku!I love the crystal clear water. The island is perfect for snorkeling and surfing. The locals who managed the island were very accommodating too. They always assist us in our needs. The buko juice is very great!

I love this place. Though there are no soft beach beds nor a flashy resorts, Daku island offers an equally pampering stay. They breeze blows freely so the relaxation is affordable.Beach cottages are for rent. You can get one for PhP200 while the centerpiece hut cost an additional PhP50.The island's caretaker offers to cook you food for PhP50/kilo cooking fee. Fresh Buko juice is also available for PhP25.

Not far from General Luna. You can do hut stays, basic though. Sand is soft and white. Water is clear. There are about 500 local people living on the island, so you can get a coconut drink to refresh when you stop in on your island hoping tour. Boats are 3000 Peso (for private boat for one or two $75 U.S.) shared with 4 is 2500 Peso per couple or $62.00 U.S.

We were 2 hours here in 2007 and 2 hours here in 2012 its a fantastic place full of cockles and muscles. the sun was beating down on our back for all that it or we were worth

Nice white sand beach and you can buy fresh coconut to drink/eat. Good experience especially if your kids haven't experience this.

An island worth visiting ... very clear water and long stretch of white sand. Cottage is at 250 and local people offers fresh coco juice upon arrival. You can also have fresh sea foods served upon request from the local fisherman and villagers. Water is just as clear ... and truly a pristine beach.

This is one of the reason I want to go back to Siargao aside from surfing. I just love the beach! So clear, blue, and clean.

You should stay here for lunch when you go on the island hopping tour in Siargao...there are cottages to rent and there is food on offer also. When we got there, one enterprising guy offered us fresh buko..which was refreshing. He also offered seafood for sale but we had already eaten so we declined. It's lovely to swim there...the white sandy beaches ensures that there are no rocks that will cut your feet while you are treading on water. I heard there is even a resort there. So, if you want to laze the day away, stay here.

This island was the coolest one. I lived swimming and enjoying the waves and water off the tip. Probably best place around to swim. Coconuts were tasty too!

Great water for swimming, only a short ride from General Luna pier, better to bring a large group for fun, very small island.

I think Dako is the best among the 3 islands. The sand is nice and it is just nice and I do not know how to put it in words. There are huts for rental and you can buy food from the wet market in General Luna and get them to cook for you for a fee.You will see some dogs there but please do not be afraid of them. They are friendly but hungry.They will just ask you for food when you are eating.

This is an amazing Island with a beautiful sandy beach, with turquoise blue water. A dream. Hope it will always stay a public beach.

It was different than any other island I'd ever been to. Waves were pretty big, sand was white. We passed by surfers and enjoyed watching them from afar.
