I can’t think of or create a product to meet the specific needs of tourists, but I did think of something that would be very marketable in a tourist destination like this. We can see that Siargao has some beautiful beaches and cliff diving spots. Some people prefer to be aware of the beach’s ground conditions. So I thought the aqua shoes were a good product that I could sell and market to tourists. This could be a very good product to market because, as far as I know, there are only a few sellers of this product. Because the tourist destination is more of a beach beauty spot, this will undoubtedly attract a large number of buyers.
The product that I will be selling probably a hot and cold tumbler especially for tourists who loves to have a cup of coffee every morning while watching sunrise and also a cold drink during sunset.
Hot and cold tumbler is primarily used to keep beverages hot or cold and protect them on the go. Whether you are at the beach with cold drink or just keep every morning coffee while watch sunrise.
Tumblers can help you save trees and reduce environmental waste, especially when you choose to use them every single day.
Product: Sunscreen with insect-repellent properties
I would like to invent a sunscreen that would help tourists protect their skin from the harsh equatorial sun of Siargao. This sunscreen would have natural insect-repellant properties to ensure the tourist would have no bug bites. Siargao is an island that offers fun adventures which is why the tourist’s skin should be well protected. On an island, there will be a lot of mosquitos and other bugs which is why they need insect repellant and they also need sunscreen because of the scorching sun. Using 2 products is inconvenient to bring, messy to use and your skin would be sticky because of the humid air. That is why I am going to invent a 2 in 1 sunscreen and insect repellent. This product would be water based so it would absorb easily in the skin and be lightweight. Water-based skin products are applicable in humid weather because it settles and absorb in your skin and it has no white cast giving you flawless and glowy skin throughout your stay on the island. There is no available product that has both sunscreen and insect repellent which is why I believe it would be a hit in the market, especially with adventurous tourists.
The spot I have chosen is the Alegria beach. The product I would propose to market to the people visiting or maybe staying there would be a portable sunbathing chair or lounger. It is made of steel and aluminum so that it is light but also durable, it is also coated with paint that prevents rusting. The lounger can be fold and has a strap so that it can be carried like a backpack, making it easy and light to travel with. The lounger also has a cup holder on the side and a mini square shaped “sun roof” if you wish to have a little shade on top. The lounger can be extended making it like a bench so that you may relax even more on a sunny day at the beach. The material used for the seating of the lounge is mesh.
VR drone flying for sunset sightseeing. I think this would take the tourist to a unique experience to be in Siargao. With the already aesthetic view of the place adding to that the experience to see it in a bird’s eye view would have a fascinating and unique experience. Aside from the sunset event they would also be able to explore the island up above and explore on each different places to see what is going on. We could also make an event for a drone racing for the thrill and fun of it. Circling around the island seeing it’s beauty while trying to get in the finish line first is fun to watch and a great story to tell our friends as we get back home.
The location/ tourist attraction that I have chosen where my developed product will be more marketable will be on the Nightlife/Bar/Club and Refreshment Pubs on the Siargao Island. My developed product will be called PUKER (Disposable Pouch with Essential Oil) for tourist who are drunk , experiencing hang overs and diziness after or during drinking alhols. PUKER is disposable pouch made of eco friendly paper bag where they can puke with essential oil inside that will help them to lessen their diziness and help them refocus . Puker is not only for alcoholics or heavy drinkers , it is also for travellers or tourist that experiencing diziness and chills every time they travel esppecially riding a boat ,barge or airplane. It is much better to puke rather pay a vomit fee or will cause you inconvenient on travel experience. Puker will lessen your worries during adventure and help you in the time you need.
Temporary tattoos are a special product to offer and are also waterproof, painless, and an instant tattoo, so I’ll be selling them to the locals in Siargao. A temporary tattoo is anything that is intentionally drawn on your body. Also, you can boost your self-image and feel more confident when at the beach. Some people believe that temporary tattoos let them express their inner selves more visibly, which can be a crucial aspect of identity. Yet interestingly, temporary tattoos only last for one to two weeks.
I’ve chosen Sunset sightseeing to be the place where I’ll sell my product because the place is filled with scenic spots to watch the sunrise or sunset. My product is the Floating Bed, while watching the amazing sunset you can just lay down and enjoy the scenery but also you can relax. The sunset is mesmerizing and the tourists will need something for them to feel comfortable while watching the sun rise and when it go down.
I choose Pacifico Beach. If I’m given a chance to start a business there, I’ll sell bendable “Sand Socks”. Walking on the sand for too long during the day will cause discomfort, especially when there are shells that might cause an injury. Slippers can be an option, but wearing them while splashing your feet in the water is difficult. That’s where waterproof “Sand Socks” can rescue. It can protect your feet against hot sand and pointy seashells. It can be used as well in sports like beach volleyball.
The famous destination that I pick or choose is the Cloud 9 Pier (Siargao Tourist Spot) becuase of its sunrise or the sunset it is perfect to the family, friends and couples. The product that I think I will develop is the mobile bar which all your friends, loved ones, and family will enjoy because this mobile bar will offer like cocktails, drinks and refreshment but we can also specialize drinks for kids and adults. This mobile bar is like kiosks and literally can move in places.

My chosen acitivity is “Into the Woods” and the product that I would like to propose is a water bottle that has a divider inside where they could put hot and cold water. It will be very useful since we have preferences for what to drink to satisfy our thirst.

Into the Woods
Yes, a jungle experience is also worth it. This will allow you to camp or just get lost in the woods. This is a fun and exciting activity to try. I want to give it a shot in the future.
Many advantages are offered by camping. Simply simply, going camping is healthy for your body and mind. Relationship building, opportunities for learning and skill development, disconnecting from screens and spending time in nature, stress relief, and improved physical fitness are all advantages. A product that I can sell to tourists who wants to camp is a water bottle (flask) that you can cool or heat your regular drink. I know that this product can help a lot of campers because I know that campers cannot find clean cold or hot water in the forest. This can help a lot of campers and it can also save our mother earth because campers doesn’t have to cut woods to burn and heat their beverage, they can use this product which is very convenient and useful for campers. For example, there is no water near the camp site and they need hot water for them to cook their food, they can use regular water and heat it in my product. This product is called “All in one flask”.
Since summer is quickly approaching, I chose Alegria Beach as my tourist destination. A thin, air-like bed that is sand-absorbent and has two charging ports on the left side is what I would like to sell. It will have four layers. In addition to having a zipper at the right side beneath the first layer where you may store your goods such a towel, slippers, sunglasses, and lotion, the charger will be fueled by sunshine thanks to its solar panel. Also, it will have an umbrella holder, making it simple for you to find a place to keep your umbrella. The benefit of this product is that it can be folded up, carried by hand, is lightweight, and can be used when traveling. where you won’t have trouble carrying several objects. Due to the air bed’s four layers and ability to absorb sand, it won’t be difficult for you to locate a place to lay down or for you to mess with the sand. You won’t have any trouble charging or bringing your powerbank with you because it already has one and uses less electricity thanks to the solar panel that powers it. Also, you won’t have any trouble deciding where to keep your items because it has its own storage place.

My chosen tourist destination is number 6 which is coconut palm forest. In that area coconut trees are abundant in numbers thus i believe if i developed a product such as coconut shell tumblers for tourist it would sell in great numbers. My product is made out of coconut shells that are are dried into processed and shape into tumblers. The outer layer of the coconut shells will be painted with different designs inspired to the places of siargao. The tumblers will be paired with straws made out of coconut leaves. The buyers will have the freedom to choose whether they will buy a tumbler with straw alone or with a bag made out of coconut leaves as well. I belive that this product is marketable to the tourist since it is environmentally friendly and unique that they can boastfully bring to their own homelands.
My chosen activity is “Into the Woods” and the product that I would like to propose is a water bottle that has a divider inside where they could put hot and cold water. It will be beneficial since we have preferences for what to drink to satisfy our thirst.
The restaurant, named “TropiGrill”, boasts an exotic ambiance that transports diners to a tropical paradise.
TropiGrill’s menu offers a variety of mouth-watering dishes that cater to different tastes. From traditional Korean grilled meats to fusion dishes that blend Korean and tropical flavors, there is something for everyone. The restaurant also offers a vegetarian option for those who prefer plant-based meals.
The highlight of TropiGrill is its Samgyupsal, a Korean dish consisting of grilled pork belly served with various side dishes. The restaurant uses premium quality meat that is cooked to perfection, ensuring that every bite is a culinary delight.
Aside from its delectable food, TropiGrill also has an extensive list of drinks, including signature cocktails that complement the tropical theme. The restaurant’s skilled mixologists create cocktails that incorporate fresh fruits and herbs, adding an extra layer of flavor to the dining experience.
TropiGrill’s attentive and knowledgeable staff enhance the dining experience, providing excellent service and recommendations to diners. The restaurant also offers private dining rooms for intimate gatherings and events.
Located in the heart of Cloud Pier, TropiGrill is a perfect destination for foodies and travelers looking for an exotic dining experience. With its fusion of Korean and tropical flavors, TropiGrill promises to be a new favorite among the city’s food enthusiasts.
Most of the tourists attractions a in the beach and being under the sun for too long without akin protection will cause you sunburn. I would sell a sunstick that has the SPF you need but also having a sunblock/suncreen that you can swipe on your face on the go (looks like a deodorant) I can also sell a solid sunblock (looks like a piece of paper in a shashe)that if you wet it a little with distilled water it will become a liquid sunblock to apply in your body. In this way it won’t take up a lot of space in the bag and also in this way we have no worries of spilling a liquid sunblock in our bags.
As a beach gal, we never missed a year going to the beach since we can never go wrong or regret about it, and Siargao is one of my dream place to go. However, as a marketing student, if there will be things that I’d like to sell, it would be something a tourist need. Things that a tourist would enjoy and fun because we’re all for it!
The nightlife in Siargao is pretty big and spontaneous, extremely fun. This stuff would elevate their excitement if they had a bikini, or top that when you scrunch it, it will glow. But at first, it will look like you just purchased a normal bikini/top, but when its time to rave, you can now scrunch it and the colors will pop out. But… we have to make sure that we don’t look weird on it, so we will design that is aesthetically pleasing and we won’t feel shame when we take a picture.

For an even more fun time swimming and relaxing in the beach, tourists can buy a ring floatie that has a built-in waterproof bluetooth speaker so they can listen to music while floating in the water.
Alegria beach’s white and powdery sand is perfect for picnics and sunbathing. My product is a personalized tote bag that can be converted into a picnic blanket. This way tourists can enjoy one of Siargao’s popular beach by having a picnic while also having a souvinir from their visit to Alegria beach.

Chosen Spot/Activity: Alegria Beach (Siargao Tourist Spot)
Product: Beach Umbrella with hanging hooks
Alegria Beach is known as one of the tourist spots in Siargao. A lot of Travelers come to visit because of its beautiful scenery. Spending time at the beach boosts relaxation and can lessen anxiety. When it comes to beach essentials, an umbrella is a must. It’s not just an ordinary umbrella; it’s an umbrella with hanging hooks inside to hang your things like bags, towels, and stuff, so your items won’t be scattered everywhere. Now, you can enjoy your vacation at Alegria beach with your umbrella to protect your skin from the sunlight without worrying about your things.
I would develop biodegradable gloves for tourists who want to help save the environment while simultaneously enjoying the place. I think they would be the product’s target market if they wanted to volunteer for the beach clean-up in Pacifico Beach but didn’t want to get their hands dirty. It is biodegradable cause it would be ironic if you were cleaning the beach but using non-biodegradable gloves that might also end up in the sea and shorelines.
Alegria Beach (Siargao Tourist Spot)
Whenever I hear about beaches, I always think about the problem I have that pushes me away from enjoying a vacation in one of them. The problem is that I always enter our room with sand and water droplets. This makes the room messy to look at and difficult to clean afterwards. Hence, I am thinking of a quick-dry towel which can absorb water and flick sand easily.
It would be made of microfiber and would have mini-fingershaped (8mm-10mm thick) microfiber to help customer flick the sand away quickly from their body. It can also be used as a beach towel when sunbathing. The design would portray one of the beaches in Siargao to make them remember their vacation by.
Everyone has Siargao on their travel wish list, whether they are Filipino or foreign. Its beauty could not be kept a secret from the public. I couldn’t help but search it as I read Pacifico Beach at The Happy Trip. I’m the kind of person that wants to savor the scenery in solitude and tranquility. I am aware that everyone wants to visit Siargao’s attractions, but when I read that Pacifico Beach is less crowded, I became intrigued. I would create a product called “Coast and Fold” that I could market and sell to tourists at Pacifico Beach. I would be providing tourists who wish to relax in the sand and take in the coast with folding beds, mats, and banigs for sale and rental. So that they won’t need to bring their own when going to the Pacifico Beach.

There are so many fun games or activities that you can do when you go to Siargao. And some of the activities there is Surfing and Coconut palm climbing. And if I will think of a product that I can sell and market well to the tourist there. I will have the waterproof waist pouch. They can use it as their pockets for their phones or wallets when they do some fun activities there in siargao. If they don’t have someone with them that can hold their personal belongings they can use the waterproof waist pouch.
