Information
The usual array of Scottish cashmeres, French perfumes, Swiss watches, Japanese cameras and most liquors can all be found. You can carry anything you buy away with you from art to those classified as �consumables� i.e. alcohol, tobbacco etc. These will be delivered to your exit port (or airport) on your departure. The system rarely fails and is very reliable.
Arts and Crafts
Crafts can be found in abundance and also sea shells and starfish are quite a bargain. Straw goods, embroidered linen, carvings and handcrafted jewelry are very popular Rastafarian carvings are thought to be of a very high standard, especially those carved from lignum vitae, beautiful heavy rosewood. Before you commit to buying an object make sure that you can carry it home (back to your hotel and on the flight home). . Prices in the smaller boutiques (where you are not expected to haggle) aren�t the cheapest in the Caribbean. Stalls at the roadside (which are open to bargaining) are more reasonable).
Clothes
Fashionable resort wear for both sexes is available. Colourful, vibrant clothes and patterns are always used and are unmistakable of the Caribbean culture.
Jewelry
Jamaican gemstones such as coral are often made into jewelry. Note the gathering and selling of black coral is illegal.
Perfume
