  • Shopping highlights here are perfume and jewelry stores and fashion labels like Levi’s and Diesel. It also has a huge Hard Rock at its centre, a food court, and clubs alongside.

  • Guayaberas Jack, Mérida

    The guayabera shirt-jacket is the smartest thing for gentlemen to wear in tropical Mérida. This long-established shop sells only guayaberas , and can make them to measure.

  • Only hammocks, of every size and color, and all of fine quality. The staff speak some English and take great care to find out just what you want.

  • Around the Chichén visitor center there is almost a mall of handi-crafts stalls, some run by Maya selling their own embroidery, hammocks, and wood carvings.

  • A pretty little shop with a more carefully selected display of handmade folk art than the markets, and striking photographs of Yucatecan scenes.

  • Ciudad Cancún’s souvenir/flea market has tightly packed stalls piled with handicrafts from attractive to tacky, surrounded by endless rows of T-shirts.

  • Another superior-quality handicrafts store. Traditional, often bizarre festival masks from all over Mexico are a speciality, as well as superb ceramics.

  • La Isla, Cancún

    The latest and most stylish of the Hotel Zone’s malls, built as an artificial island surrounded by Venetian-style “canals”. It’s the place for major fashion names, like DKNY and Dolce e Gabbana.

  • Los Cinco Soles, Cozumel

    The place to do all your souvenir shopping in one go – a giant Malecón handicrafts store. Tablecloths, clothes, jewelry, glassware, metal or papier-mâché birds and animals, and more.

  • Izamal’s market, just below the monastery, is a lively mix of souvenirs, handicrafts, and busy little cafés.
