Surfing in Siargao, Philippines, is often attributed to American surfers who popularized the sport in the 1970s, with a notable influence from the 1978 documentary "The Surfing Years." However, the island's local fishermen had been riding waves on wooden boards long before that. The iconic Cloud 9 surf break, which significantly boosted Siargao's reputation as a surfing destination, was discovered and named by the locals and later gained international attention through surf competitions and tourism.
