Guyam Island

The video features Guyam Island, one of the most iconic stops in the "Tri-Island" hopping tour of Siargao, Philippines.

The Vibe: It captures the quintessential "castaway" aesthetic—tiny, palm-fringed, and surrounded by a vast turquoise reef.

The Geography: Guyam is a teardrop-shaped coral islet. You can actually walk across the entire island in less than 30 seconds.

The Detail:The video showcases the contrasting "two sides" of Guyam—one side with a powdery white sand beach perfect for swimming, and the other featuring rugged, weather-worn rock formations that protect the island from Pacific swells.

Fun Fact:The name "Guyam" comes from the local Surigaonon word for "ant, a reference to its tiny size compared to its neighbor, Daku Island.



"Welcome to a tiny slice of paradise that fits in the palm of your hand. This is Guyam Island, the 'pocket-sized' jewel of Siargao."

"Located just a ten-minute boat ride from the shores of General Luna, Guyam is the ultimate tropical escape. Don’t let its size fool you—though you can walk from one side to the other in under a minute, every inch of this islet is postcard-perfect."


"On one end, you have soft, ivory sands and crystal-clear lagoons that stay shallow and calm. On the other, dramatic rock formations stand guard against the Philippine Sea. It’s a place where time slows down, shadowed by a canopy of over seventy coconut palms."

"Whether you’re here for a fresh coconut, a quick dip in the reef, or just to catch that golden hour glow, Guyam reminds us that sometimes, the best things really do come in small packages. This isn’t just an island... it’s a state of mind."
