Avisala!
I'm not a stranger to sunsets. If you browse through my previous blogs, you can see that I had a fair share of sunsets that I shared here. The Philippines being a tropical archipelago, we have a lot of sunset locations to be proud of and I've been to a lot of them. But the sunset we witnessed in Siargao after our surfing was just otherworldly.
I didn't have a lot of photos because, after surfing, we were enjoying the live band at Ocean 101 Beach Resort. While drinking our tropical blue drink (I didn't know the name of that drink), we were approached by the drone operator who took a lot of videos while we were surfing. We got distracted by how beautiful the videos of our surfing were that the sun had already gone below the horizon. I wasn't able to capture the transition, but maybe @thestrollingmind has a lot of photos.
From warm colors, it immediately changed to hues of purple and pink. Now that's not unusual. I guess it's the towering coconut palms in the foreground that added depth and made the overall spectacle. But coconut palms are not unusual sights on tropical beaches in the Philippines either. I guess it's the overall vibe of Siargao that made everything perfect.
I think we just witnessed a slice of paradise at that moment. We even decided that we would definitely be back this year and stay on the island longer.
For the best experience view this post on Liketu
This post is a slice of paradise in itself! It's beautiful how moments like these - a perfect sunset after an epic surf session - stay with us. It reminds us to appreciate the little things in life.
Thanks for sharing your experience and making us feel like we were part of your Siargao adventure.
Any tips for someone planning to visit and want a similar magical experience?
Hmmm. I think there's no such thing as similar experience, but if you're into sunsets and surfing, it's best to visit when there's no incoming typhoon, rain, or low pressure. It's different when it's raining.
This is much needed . Thanks so much
Live music in the open air is cool!
Indeed! One of the best
Wowwww.....I wish I were there.....this "blue" planet of ours is wonderful......
Happy vacations

There is something special and magical about tropical sunsets by the sea indeed. I must have taken hundreds of shots of them at various locations. Nice captures here ;)

Makakita rasad ko ani in person. Watch out! Haha
Watch out! Kuyog ko! 😆
I miss Siargao, if I want to live there, gusto lang ko mag surfing every day. XD
Surfing everyday is a dream!
What a nice paradise that you've visited @ybanezkim26 it's a wow view... I was hoping to get there as soonest...
Rooting for you! Get ready to feel the Siargao curse. You will definitely want to stay there once you visit.
How beautiful! Such a different scenery to what we have in Europe now 😊
I also want to experience the snow though. 😆
Wow, the scenery is absolutely breathtaking. I love how clear the pictures are and how perfectly you captured the essence of the sunset.
Men I didn't know the Philippines had such beautiful sunsets😊, it's almost like y'all took all the beauty of the sun.
It's the way the wind blows through the leaves of the coconut trees, and then the backdrop of the sunset as well. It makes the view magical.
And the magnificent house🙂🙂, with the lights on the three branches. I hope to visit Siargao Island someday.
