THE RISE AND RISE OF WAKEBOARDING.
Wakeboarding took off in 2022, becoming a favorite sport in Siargao. This year, its popularity continues, prompting Siargao Wakepark to add new features.
"When you ride a wakeboard, it’s like you’re surfing,” said Khim Ortojan, manager of Siargao Wakepark.
“But with surfing, you have to catch the waves. With wakeboarding, as soon as you get your balance, you can ride non-stop. Plus, you can ride a wakeboard rain or shine, all year round.”
FIND YOUR ADRENALINE FIX.
Take your pick from a wide array of fun activities, no matter your age or skill level. Book the water zipline and fly over water in this unique activity that's a sure hit among kids and kids-at-heart. Trust us, you'll keep coming back for more!
There’s also wingfoiling or hydrofoiling , a windpropelled water sport, that takes you flying over the water, like a bird in the sky. Get beginner or advanced hydrofoiling lessons with a certified instructor.
Wakeboarding , the main sport at the wakepark, sees the rider standing on a wakeboard being pulled by a cable system, at a speed suited to one’s skill level. It’s easy and fun to learn with the wakepark’s two tower set-up. All training and proper equipment are provided before the start of every activity, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
