Just like ZYN itself, there’s something for everyone in Siargao.
From exploring sandbars to its celebrated nightlife staples, there’s much to see and do on the island, and ZYN offers a new way for legal-age nicotine users to enjoy moments without interruption. Recently, the brand has continued to grow its portfolio with new, summer-themed innovations. ZYN Cool Breeze 1.5mg presents an option for those new to nicotine pouches, while the Tropical 3mg and 6mg bring a lively taste for users hoping to explore something new.
These new product launches reflect ZYN’s continued effort to support both category entry and taste exploration, making nicotine pouches more accessible to those who are looking for smoke-free alternatives, while also giving existing users more ways to enjoy the experience. As the category continues to grow, ZYN plays an active role in making smoke-free options more widely available to adult nicotine users. Whether it’s about switching to ZYN nicotine pouches or discovering new ZYN variants, the brand is focused on giving users the flexibility to choose what suits them best.
ZYN has made it a point that you can enjoy its flavor profiles on the go, and for the busy traveler in Siargao, this is a godsend. As part of ZYN’s Summer, Uninterrupted experience in Siargao, Rolling Stone Philippines got a first-hand look at the different locations that add to the island’s unique culture.
Roots
Located within Kaimana Resort, Roots has spent the last two years building up a reputation as one of Siargao’s fine dining establishments. Roots’ tasting menu changes daily, inspired by fresh, sustainable ingredients and both local and international flavor palettes. While there, we were treated to dishes such as Roots’ cassava crisps (paired with a spicy ube and onion emulsion), Filipino wagyu encased in a squid ink ravioli shell, and a red snapper ceviche topped with pepinos and cured egg yolk.
Cloud 9
For surfers and sun bathers, no trip to Siargao would be complete without an hour or two at Cloud 9. The surfing spot boasts a steady flow of high waves, perfect both for surfing beginners and professionals alike. The pier and surf tower nearby also makes for an ideal spot for photos and for jumping-off points into the water.
Barbosa
Since it opened in 2023, Barbosa has become the vinyl bar for music lovers looking for a listening space on the island. Complete with an eclectic menu of snacks and drinks, Barbosa features regular DJ sets that draw everyone on the island to the bar’s dance floor.
Kanaloa Beach Club
If you’re looking for a more laidback spot that’s still close to nature, then Kanaloa is for you. The beach club offers both bar food and Filipino cuisine, along with a variety of drinks that you can sip on while lounging on the shore. Visitors can also kayak, standup paddle, and join in on an hour-long boat tour of the surrounding mangrove forests.
Mr. Turtle
One of Siargao’s newer beachfront restaurants, Mr. Turtle boasts both a rich, Filipino-inspired menu and a close-up view of the shoreline. Mr. Turtle also hosts regular events, from Latin dance nights to full moon parties. Once you’re done either sitting by the beach or hitting the dance floor, take a second to lounge by the restaurant’s surrounding pool.
Siargao Beach Club
Although Siargao has a number of night clubs you can choose from, the Siargao Beach Club features ample space for a night of dancing and partying, plus direct access to the nearby beach. There’s always a gig or DJ set going at the beach club, every day of the week.
ZYN is available at zyn.com, IQOS Stores, Lighters Galore, and convenience stores nationwide. Follow @zyn.phl on Facebook and Instagram to stay updated on the latest news.
