Badoc Island |
How to get there : Badoc Island is located on the upper north west coast of Luzon in the province of Ilocos Sur. The Island is located about a kilometer off shore from the small town of Badoc itself and is private property.
By road you are several hours north of San Fernando and La Union. Although the coastal road is scenic and has various small towns, well worth stopping off at for a break. Places such as Bandar, Candan and Narvacan. You will also pass through Vigan which is another surf spot just south of Badoc. Bus services run north from San Fernando or of course you can hire a private car or van.

Breaks over a shallow reef, it's super hollow and can pack some punch. Can handle
up to 10ft, ideal at 5 - 8ft.
Apart from the above there's another 5 breaks within 30 minutes drive that offers
excellent waves when the swell gets to big and winds turn onshore. With only one
local surfer in the area you'll be assured of plenty of un crowed waves when the
swell hits.
The surf here is amazingly consistent and we're sure it will satisfy even the
most hard core surfers. This surf holiday break is great for small group.
