Curacao Shopping Overview |
| The shops in Curacao are considered by many among the best in the Caribbean. As the local import tax is low, it will seem as if you are shopping close to duty free. It is wise to begin shopping early to avoid the cruise ship crowds that frequent Curacao. The island's best bargains are found in the luxury items popular throughout the Caribbean islands - cameras, electronics, fine china & crystal. |
