We were there a few times. Most of the goods on sale are what you see every where in mexico. However they have very nice mayan shirts and children wear at very reasonable prices. There is also on artisan that makes interesting lamps. More

There are a number of "craft markets" around Puerto Morelos. This is the place where most of the work you see is done by local people - in many cases, right on site.

This is the place to get your gifts for people. The individuals here are fantastic and their goods are beautiful. You can even ask to see the looms for the blankets and hammocks while you are looking to buy something. More

We enjoyed visiting the Collectivo. Many of the crafts are the same items from the different vendors, but they are talented and the prices are much better than in the hotel gift shop. And you can meet the artist. More

Collectivo de Artesanos at Puerto Morelos was a great experience reasonable prices were found by us as well as being able to watch some of the artisans at work making necklaces wind mobiles, etc.. A great place off the beaten path and away from the almost pushy vendors in some of Cancun's markets. We highly recommend a visit here in... More
