The AKR Gift Shop: A bit of everything local
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: The AKR Gift Shop

    There are good places to shop all over the island with good deals to be has in Coxen Hole and in some of the smaller shops in West End.

    West Bay shops and the ones at the resorts are a bit higher in price but they just about always carry a large selection of sizes and colors.

    What To Buy: You can find good deals on swim suits and local wood carvings.

    What To Pay: Remember that in West End the asking price is normally double of what you can get it for but remember that the folks selling the items have to make a living on what you spend.

    Yaba Ding: Island Goods
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: Yaba Ding

    Finding Yaba Ding is no easy task but when you do you will be rewarded with some of the best items of the island.
    There is loads of island crafts and you can find some great bargans here, just not on cruise ship days.

    Remember to barter for the good you wish to get and remember to have a smile on your face.

    What To Buy: There are some nice scarfs here and wrap arounds.

     Ok, ok, I got the homepage done for Roatan. The rest will have to wait. Can you believe I'm still cleaning up the pics from May?
