Burgos Surf Guide

Burgos in Siargao Islands is an exposed reef break that has reliable surf. Autumn and winter are the best times of year for waves. Offshore winds are from the southwest and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. Waves more likely to be from local windswells than distant groundswells and the ideal wave direction is from the northeast. There is no reef break. It very rarely gets crowded here. Take care of rocks in the line up.
