Skip the crowded beaches — and come find paradise.

Siargao in August offers an escape into something more raw, real, and unforgettable. Trade packed coastlines for perfect waves, island rhythms, and a small group of like-minded souls.

September 10-17 | 2025

September is when the island truly shines.

While everyone else is heading back to routine, Siargao is still in full bloom — warm waters, glassy waves, golden sunsets, and a slower pace that invites you to breathe deeper. It’s the perfect time to extend your summer, ride the season’s best swells, and reconnect with yourself (and others) before the year speeds up again. With Agrado, September feels like a well-kept secret — and it’s all yours to enjoy.

Whether you’re here to level up your skills or just ride for the joy of it, October delivers. And with the island still quiet and lush, it’s the ideal moment to drop into your flow — on the board, with the group, and within yourself.

Meet your hosts

Agrado was born from a serendipitous meeting between two kindred spirits in Siargao. From different worlds but a shared vision, Jaime and Castel created a space where surfing, community, and connection come together with purpose and joy.

Jaime

Originally from Spain, left the city and his corporate job to follow a quieter kind of joy. At Agrado, he brings people together through care, creativity, and the love of riding waves that change you.

Castel

Rooted in the Philippines and island rhythm, Castel creates through music, movement, and presence — shaping experiences that feel natural, warm, and full of soul.
