What are good buys on the Western Carribbean?

[rebecca]

We will be leaving next week on our cruise and I was wondering if anyone can tell me what the good buys are while we are in Cozumel, Cayman Islands and Keys? I would also appreciate any information of any shops we should not miss in these ports.

Thanks

In Key West, Keno Sandals...the best buy around~~ All leather and last for years. Also, you might want to pick up some "key Lime" souveniers!

In Cozumel, I love the handmade blankets.....and some of the local crafts.

In Grand Cayman.......we didn't shop, too busy with 2 tours.

Hope you have fun!

Email me if I can help you with anything!!

We Leave next week too!!!! We're packing right now.

I have to give Keno Sandals another vote. It's a great experience and great shoes. I sure hope they are open on Sundays. Does anyone know if children's sizes are available? It's been 10 years since visiting Key West.

Hi there Rebecca,
If you will stop at the shop, I would be more than happy to share tons of information on Key West shopping INCLUDING DO NOT DO THE TEE SHIRT SHOPS WITH THE LOUDEST MUSIC - Touch of Gold right by Keno sandels - talk with Vinny or Gary and they give conch rates especially if you tell them I recommended them - I have them to be the top of the line in honesty and have known them for years - I have maps, coupons for the butterfly farm etc that will help guide you through my hometown -
If I can be of further help, just email me at snelsonbrown@aol.com
Always
Shirley

Keno sandals for sure in Key West...we love them.

In Cozumel...the best jewelry prices we found were in the forum shops...far end of the street from the dock. Very nice people, great selection. For cigars..take the escalator up the stairs..there is also a great little bar up there...perfect mojito's. There is also a large store...set prices..close to the forum shops...best place to get any souveniers in cozumel. Somebody here will remember them name of the set price store...ok..cinco soles...something like that. great stuff!

In Grand Cayman...we found the best sounveniers/prices to be at Rackams bar/restaurant gift shop. Nice size, great assortment. They serve the stingray beer, and the food looks spectacular. Also great tshirts at big bamboo...micro-brew pub.
