Live like a local for a day. Fish the traditional way with a Siargao fisherman, then cook and share the catch with his family.
The experience
This isn’t a fishing show. You meet a local fisherman, help prepare the boat, learn how handline fishing actually works, and then head back to shore with whatever the sea gave you. His family cooks the catch with you and shares a home-cooked meal in their home. It’s the most direct way to see how life actually runs on this island.

- Fish the traditional way — learn handline fishing techniques in local spots

- Cook together — head to the fisherman’s home and cook your fresh catch with the family
