Don't be afraid, there might be a few western luxury items missing, but the essentials can be found everywhere around the island. Supermarkets are open from early morning until early night. But that 's not all!

From scuba dive & snorkel equipment to stylish, unique beach wear, there are a lot of shops offering quality and brand products for bargain prices.

Original ethnic souvenirs made from ceramic, coconut, shells or bamboo and unique jewelry made from silver, leather and precious stones are offered in several shops as well as from vendors at the roadside.

There are also lots of little stores that seem to be specializing in only one thing: to have everything! Hawaii shirts, sarongs, hammocks, postcards, coconut oil, flip-flops, second hand books, fire crackers, the list is endless.

Just look around and you are sure to find something you really need right now.

Except in the big stores prices are open for discussion, as long as you stay friendly and reasonable.
