Daku Island

Daku Island is a small inhabited island off the southeast coast of Siargao in General Luna, Surigao del Norte, Philippines. It is the largest of the three islands in the popular Siargao island-hopping circuit with Naked Island and Guyam Island. Known for its long white-sand beach, coconut palms and clear turquoise waters, the island hosts a small fishing community and serves as the main lunch stop for boat tours, with cottages and fresh seafood available.

Visitors arrive by motorized outrigger boat from General Luna and land on a wide white-sand beach lined with coconut palms. The island has a small fishing village on one side and an open beachfront with rented cottages, picnic tables, food stalls and toilets for tourists. Expect calm, shallow waters suitable for swimming and wading, open sandy areas for walking and photography, and local vendors preparing grilled seafood. The atmosphere is casual and community-based, with most visitors staying for a meal and beach time as part of an island-hopping tour.
