Bi2JH2O Artisanal Shopping Plaza Review

The colorful, bazaarlike atmosphere at Bi2JH2O Artisanal Shopping Plaza, pronounced like bibijagua, makes it fun to browse through the rows of shopping stalls laid out in the sand on Bávaro Beach. Here you can find handicrafts, cigars, mamajuana, handmade musical instruments, paintings, sculptures, wood carvings, and amber, larimar, and coral jewelry. Expect the spirited shopkeepers to beckon you into their kiosks; don't hesitate to look around before you settle on a purchase, as you might find a few pearls in what may at times seem like a sea of trinkets. Break out your bargaining tactics, as prices are not set in stone, but don't ask about costs if you aren't serious about buying; you'll be hounded. There's a snack bar with Dominican munchies and restrooms nearby. The plaza is accessible on foot along the beach from a few hotels. Otherwise, grab a cab, and a camera.
