A Quick Guide to Pitogo Cliff Siquijor: My Honest Review & Everything You Need to Know in 2025

Pitogo Cliff Siquijor is one of those nature spots that pretty much everyone visits when they’re in Siquijor, and yeah, I think it’s worth a stop. It’s just outside of San Juan, easy to get to, and the entrance fee is cheap. Nothing about it is incredible, but it’s a nice little place to hang out for a while.

I went on my way back from Cambugahay Falls and it made for a great little pit stop. Don’t expect dramatic scenery or massive cliffs or anything like that, it’s literally a rocky ledge with a view. But it’s quiet, the water below is beautiful, and you can jump and go for a swim which was so much fun.

There’s not a whole lot more to say. It’s not a full-day activity, but if you’re already in the area, it’s a quick, easy, and cool stop that doesn’t require much planning. I liked it. Just don’t go expecting something mind-blowing and you’ll be fine.

Pitogo Cliff Siquijor – My Experience

We ended up at Pitogo Cliff kind of by accident. After spending the morning at Cambugahay Falls, we wrapped up by midday and figured we had time for one more stop. Pitogo Cliff showed up on Google Maps along our route back to San Juan, so we thought – why not?

We pulled off the main road down a short dirt path, parked the scooter, grabbed our stuff, and walked over to the entrance. There were a few souvenir stalls and a small gate where we paid the entrance fee, pretty sure it was around 30 pesos per person. Super cheap either way. From there, it was literally a one-minute walk to the cliff.

The spot itself is beautiful. A few palm trees, a couple benches, and clear blue water that honestly reminded me a bit of the Mediterranean, maybe Greece? I’ll include some photos and you can tell me if I’m dreaming. There’s a ledge up top that looks exactly like a cliff diving platform, but you’re not actually allowed to jump from there. Instead, there was a guy (no idea if he worked there or not) charging people to take photos on it. I skipped that part.

That said, there is an actual jumping area. You walk down a set of stairs to a lower platform, maybe three or four meters high, and that’s where jumping is allowed. We did a couple jumps, swam around for a bit, and the water was insanely clear and pretty. Just a heads-up, the rocks down there are brutal. Super sharp and really uncomfortable to walk on barefoot. If you’ve got water shoes, this is 100% the time to wear them. At the very least, bring your flip-flops down with you.

We probably spent about 30 minutes at the cliffs before heading back to the scooter. On the way out, we grabbed a cold lemon juice for a dollar, highly recommend! Oh, and we did get charged a 10-peso parking fee we didn’t know about. There was a tiny sign apparently, but we didn’t notice it. Not a big deal, just something to keep in mind.

What to Expect at Pitogo Cliff Siquijor (Entrance Fee & Cliff Jumping)

You probably already got the idea from my experience above, it’s nothing wild, but that’s kind of the beauty of it. Pitogo Cliff doesn’t require any planning, big spending, or effort. It’s just outside of San Juan, and it’s cheap and easy.

When you arrive, there’s a parking area where you’ll pay a 10-peso fee for a motorbike. A few souvenir and snack stalls line the entrance, along with a small ticket booth where you’ll pay 30 pesos to get in. From there, it’s a short walk down a dirt path to reach the cliffs.

There’s not a whole lot there besides the views and a photo spot where someone might offer to take your picture (for a small fee, of course). You’ll also see a staircase leading down to a small platform where you can actually cliff jump. There’s a ladder to climb back out of the water, and that’s about it.

If you’re not planning to swim, this can be a super quick stop, take a photo, admire the views, and be on your way in five minutes. But if you want to jump in and swim around in that insanely clear turquoise water (like we did), you can easily end up staying a bit longer.

How to Get to Pitogo Cliff Siquijor

There’s not a lot to say here because it’s honestly super easy. If you’re getting around on a scooter in Siquijor, or anywhere in the Philippines, really, just get a local SIM card and use Google Maps. Or, if you don’t want to deal with a SIM, download the offline map ahead of time (I do that all the time and it works just fine).

Just type Pitogo Cliff Nature Park into Google Maps and follow the directions. It’s right off the main road heading southeast out of San Juan, about a 10-minute scooter ride, and that’s it.

If you don’t have a scooter, you can always take a tricycle or tuk-tuk from San Juan. Expect to pay around 150 pesos to get there.

What to Bring & Tips for Visiting Pitogo Cliff

Since Pitogo Cliff isn’t some huge, complicated attraction, you don’t need to come overly prepared, but there are a few things that’ll make the visit more comfortable.

Definitely bring sunscreen. There’s zero shade out there, and the sun hits hard. I’d also recommend water shoes if you’ve got them, the rocks down by the jumping platform are sharp and super uncomfortable to walk on barefoot.

Bring small change for the entrance fee (30 pesos) and the 10-peso parking fee. They might not have change for large bills, so maybe don’t rock up with a 1000-peso note.

And if you’re planning to swim, which I think makes the stop way more fun, don’t forget your swimwear. The water is beautiful, and jumping off the lower platform is a great little adrenaline kick. Just stopping for the view is fine, but it’s way more worth it if you actually get in.

That’s pretty much it, nothing complicated, just a few little things to keep in mind so you can enjoy it without any fuss.

Is Pitogo Cliff Worth Visiting? My Final Thoughts

I’d say absolutely. No, it’s not the most mind-blowing attraction in Siquijor, but it doesn’t have to be to be worth a visit. It’s super easy to get to, really close to San Juan, and it’s cheap. That alone makes it a fun little stop.

If you’re only going for the photo, it might feel a bit underwhelming. But if you bring your swimwear and actually get in the water, it’s a lot more fun. The views are gorgeous, the vibe is chill, and that Mediterranean-blue water really is something (Yes I do think it looks like in Europe ok!.

Alright, that’s it for my quick guide to Pitogo Cliff in Siquijor, I hope it can help you pla your next day trip in Siquijor.
