Sohoton Cove

One of my highlights in the whole of The Philippines so far. This place is just beautiful. At every level.

First things first. You'll need to buy a tour package which could cost up to 2.500 PHP/pax. This was exactly the price that I paid. And the tour will last the entire day.

Prepare yourself for a 2-hour boat ride (for each side). It's tiring, especially with the noise of the boat engine. Life jackets and ear sound blockers will be given to you. Bring your own snacks and water, you'll later be provided with a great lunch!

You'll be amazed by the crystal blue and warm waters (especially if it's a sunny day), the hills and the bats in the trees on top of the hills. Wonderful landscape. Perfect to swim with the jellyfish (it's part of the tour).

Definitely one of the best tours you can find across the country. It is worth every penny given.

This was by far the highlight of my trip to Siargao. The boat ride from General Luna can take up to 3hrs one way so come prepared with snacks and earplugs! You can find tours for 2000PHP that include the other main islands (Daku, makes, Guyam), but Sohoton cove outshone all the other stops. My favorite was swimming with the stingless jellyfish and the big cave climb. Make sure you bring goggles or scuba gear, and if you don’t like heights just skip the cave climb. The rest of the tour is worth it. Beautiful clear waters and amazing wildlife. Will definitely do this again next time I come to Siargao.

Amazing place and highly recommended to visit with a tour group. We used My Siargao Tour and was blown away. The locals are very kind and so welcoming. Be ready to step out of your comfort zone as there a few parts that you need to be ready to go I see water and through caves. Those who can not swim do not worry the guides are basically fish people and will take care of you just follow instructions and enjoy! FYI when yo il swim with the golden jelly fishes don’t panic they have no stingers.

A bit far from Siargao Island but worth the 4 hour boat ride! The view is trully mesmerizing and the experience is worthwhile.. We haven’t seen the jelly fish around since we were told they only appear when it’s their season.

One of the most worthwhile thing I ever did in my life.
I looked for package tours on facebook groups for Siargao tourists - Siargao Business Classified and I found there Kuya Doods Almacen who offers package tours for Sohoton and 3 Islands (Guyam, Daku, Naked, or Secret Island) for only 1,500 pesos or 30 USD for the whole day with free lunch.

I highly encourage everyone that before travelling, research first to know the expected budget for the trip, also for you not to waste time looking for package tours that are often, too expensive offered around GL

Sohoton needs around 2 hours to reach via boat, but im telling youuuu IT IS SOOOOO WORTH IT. ❤❤❤

The tour guides were fun to be with and will always look after you during the tour. It was hightide when we went there, we hid under the boat (literally haha) because our heads might hit the stalactites 😊then after few meters, there is the beautiful Sohoton cove. Theres a part there where the guides will bring you to a hidden cave and will push you to dive for about 8-10 seconds (you'll just hold your breathe and trust the tour guides!) and cliff diving as well.

Jellyfish sanctuary was my most favorite part. We transferred to a smaller boat and only one tourist with one guide ber boat was allowed. about 10 mins. of paddling to reach the beautiful place. I was really in awe. 😍😍😍 Lots of jellyfishes - white blue purple and brown in color! 😎

Tours guides/boatmen are very good, theyre well trained. They know how to take care of tourists. They take good photos. They make u laugh. Very caring.

Amazing experience on this tour. We had to dive and hold our beaths for 10 seconds in order to get inside the cave. Once you are inside you’ll see your skin is glowing. It’s lightning specially if you are white, uts because of the reflection from the light outside. And the second one would be cliff diving. After trecking and climbing the other cave, you wont have any other way out but to jump of r dive in 12ft high water. It was exciting though. Lots of jumper were firstimers. Then you can swim at the jellyfish sanctuary after. It was an amazing experience.

sumptuous, fresh food that can't be found in the cities . .

nature's water-wonders all wrapped in an island-labyrinth

Experience being at the borders of the WORLDS DEEP !

I have been here three times spanning 20 years !
Yet i still can't get enough 😉😁😘

Thank you Socorronhons !
[ i hope thanking will add more love ]

One the best attractions in Socorro, Surigao Del Norte. 2 hour boat ride from General Luna, Siargao Island. Discover all this places in Sohoton;
Crystal Cave, Bolitas Cave, Tundan Cave, Magkukuob Cavern, Hagukan Cave, Bubon Group of Islets, Club Tara Resort, Tiktikan Lake, Bubon Beach, Marka A Island and Jellyfish Sanctuary. Just be cafeful and vigilant while swimming, I heard that Siargao is home to the largest crocs, the salties or saltwater crocodile.

Great summer destination! If you’re facing the Sea you see the beauty of Nature! Unfortunately if you are looking the mountain from the sea you’ll see how those greedy people abuse the nature due to open pit mining!

One of the most beautiful places that I visited. You can reach via boat from Hayangabon Port in Mainland Surigao del Norte or from Siargao island. The place is similar to El Nido or Coron. I joined the group tour for 1,700/person and it's worth it. Food, guide and boat are included in the package.

No one can enter sohoton unless its lowtide ss the entrance will be covered with water during hightide. Its a large area inside covering about 60 hectares. There are two activities offered one is in hagukan cove where you get dive upon entering during not so low tides. The other one is in magkukuob cavern where you get to climb about 15 feet and jump to the sea upon exit.

The best place for swimming with the jelly fish. Its a santuary for baby jelly fish. Best if you have go pro camera and underwater diving equipments.

Sohoton Cove is an enchanting place where you can enjoy the breathtaking beauty of nature. In Sohoton area you can visit twelve (12) places of interest. These are the following: ✔ Sohoton Cove ✔ Crystal Cave ✔ Bolitas Cave ✔ Tundan Cave ✔ Magkukuob cavern (Diving Cave) ✔ Hagukan Cave ✔ Bubon Group of Islets ✔ Club Tara Resort ✔ Tiktikan Lake ✔ Bubon Beach ✔ Marka A Island ✔ Jellyfish Sanctuary (Non-sting Jellyfish) You can explore and discover the majestic place with hospitable people and great tour services. Make sure to contact reliable and registered tour operators for you to have a safe and sound getaway.

A trip to this secluded place is really worth it. Don't forget to try their caves as what you'll see inside is surreal.

This place was beyond description... The silence, the calmness of the water, the whole experience was very good. Although we arrived there with a gloomy weather the place didn't lose its awesomeness.

Beautiful 🤩 view , not deep . Safe for kids

Islands, beach, blue waters. Swim with the jellyfish. Picturesque place. 😊

A must place to visit! The place is very relaxing. Snorkling in Jelly fish sanctuary, the underwater caves, cliff jumping and many more. Great experience! It's my second time to visit and would like to go back again if I got the chance.

One of the best day trips we've done in the Phillipines. It is tricky to get to and not many places in Siargao offer the tour anymore. We decided to go to Dapa and found a local guide that was willing to take us there. The guide actually got lost on our way there! Shows exactly how off the beaten path this place is.

Once we arrived in Sohoton we're then passed over to pay the local fees, then a fee for the tour. We weren't sure what we were signing up for but it ended up being a fantastic adventure. The cave tour was great fun and the Jellyfish sanctuary was spectacular. We were the last boats out so it felt like we had the whole sanctuary to ourselves. I feel like that is what sugba lagoon was like before it got popular.

Bring a packed lunch of some kind with you as it will be a long day. There are no restaurants in the vicinity. We were lucky that the locals took pity on our lack of preparation and shared their lunch with us.
