ALEGRIA BEACH

We made our only stopover at the remote, 5-km. long white-sand Alegria Beach in Sta. Monica town, inside a reef-fringed lagoon in Siargao Island’s northeast. Despite the inclement weather, the water here was turquoise green and calm.

Probably due to its isolated location, there were no foreigners in sight, a good sign that tourists have not flocked here yet, leaving the beach unspoiled and preserving its local flavor. There were no buildings or hotels around, just a lot o coconut trees, a few picnic huts and a hammock slung between two trees.

The beach is quite long so you don’t have to worry even if you find some tourists when you get there. Perfect for those who want to relax for a while with nobody else around. For the more adventurous, there is a surf spot here but this normally only works during the surf season, around September.

If you’re craving for a quiet beach in Siargao that you can have all to yourself, then head to Alegria Beach. Away from the busy crowd of General Luna, the Northern part of Siargao is where you’ll find the secluded and almost untouched Alegria Beach. 

Very few tourists venture here, but those who do are rewarded generously by this serene patch of tropical paradise. A huge part of why only a few travelers visit Alegria Beach is that it is approximately an hour’s drive from General Luna.

The long trip won’t be in vain though, rest assured that it will be worth it. Alegria Beach’s tranquil vibe, fine white sand, salty sea breeze, and crystal clear water is sure to refresh any weary traveler. 

You can make a lot of memories in Alegria Beach. Take advantage of the seclusion to commune with nature, feel the powdery white sand on your feet, and take tons of photographs without worrying about photo bombers.

Let the seawater wash do its magic and wash away any worries. Just be mindful that there are nearby reefs, so look for parts where the water is deep enough for you to swim in without stepping on sharp rocks.  Read More:  https://guidetothephilippines.ph/articles/things-to-do/siargao-tourist-spots

General Luna is the popular tourist area of Siargao, which has surfing and a beautiful coastline. However, it can get quite busy and the reef along the coastline of the local beaches in General Luna make it hard for a relaxed day of swimming. If you are up for a scenic drive to the north, you can make your way to the secluded Alegria Beach on Siargao Island.

The first thing I noticed at Alegria Beach on Siargao was the white sand and crystal clear water. Coconut palms lined the beach. It could have been a postcard. There were no other tourists just a few locals hanging back on the grass behind the beach. There is quite a bit of reef at this beach but there is still water deep enough to swim in, which isn’t too common on Siargao.  Read More:  https://www.journeyera.com/alegria-beach-best-beach-siargao-island/
