Cozumel has surprisingly good and varied shopping opportunities.
In San Miguel alone, in the area around Avenida Rafael Melgar, there
are close to 200 shops. The cruise ship pier south of town has an
infectious party atmosphere, conducive to colorful stalls and serious
bargaining. Several department stores carry everything from beach
reading to fine crystal. The best are Orbi, Addr: Av. Rafael Melgar
S. 27, Pama, Addr: Av. Rafael Melgar S 9, and Prococo, Addr: Av. Rafael
Melgar N. 99. |
