Tuason Point is Siargao's premier left-hander—a wave that provides the perfect counterbalance to the right-hand dominance of Cloud 9 and its neighbors. When solid Pacific swells wrap into the island's eastern shores, Tuason comes alive with long, winding walls that offer both barrel sections and open faces for carving. The wave requires more size than the nearby rights, but when it's on, it rewards goofy-footers with the kind of frontside perfection that makes the trip to this remote Philippine island worthwhile.
