Siargao Nomad Workation Retreat
We’re bringing together remote workers and digital nomads in Siargao for a pop-up coliving retreat that blends coworking, surfing, and real opportunities for personal and career development.
You’ll take part in focused work sessions and workshops from the BaybayinHub Academy covering topics such as digital marketing, practical AI and automation, wellness and growth mindset.
In between surf sessions, island hopping, and sunset drinks, you’ll build authentic connections that last, surrounded by like-minded people who share the same drive to learn and grow.
Why Siargao?
Siargao is the surf capital of the Philippines – but it’s also a place that makes you slow down, breathe deeper, and live more fully.
Picture this: palm-lined roads, crystal-clear lagoons, cozy cafés, and a laid-back island vibe that’s impossible to resist.
You’ll find the perfect rhythm for remote work and real connection – with great Wi-Fi, stunning nature, and a welcoming community. It’s where focus meets freedom, and strangers quickly become friends.
