Shopping in Roseau, Dominica is a real treat for tourists as it offers a lot of duty-free options! Aside from this advantage the traditional arts and crafts are visitor favorites. The pieces you'll find here are unique to themselves, often made just days before they are sold, each sculpture, jewelry piece, or artist's work holds onto originality as recreation en masse is not the theme here. Specialties include bamboo and various wood works, leather, and alcohol.
Whitchurch Ashbury's Duty free shop is a tourist favorite and offers a wide variety of wine and liquor, cigars, jewelry, and more. It is located at the Young Waterfront. Other favorites include the Crazy Banana for West Indian gifts, the Duty-Free Emporium for one-stop shopping, and the Ego Boutique and Mango Tango for upscale, designer clothing.
Shopping at the Old Market Plaza is a must while in Roseau. The market is the hotspot for local specialties. You can stock up on the delicious treats, top quality produce and spices, as well as arts and crafts. On Saturday mornings it extends to an outdoor public market with even more options.
You will find arts and crafts throughout the major tourist thoroughfares of Roseau, but many tourists really appreciate Dominican Pottery and Tropicrafts, two small stores with great handicrafts.
