The first European visitors to the Caribbean were in search of precious metals and spices to take back home.

Little has changed over the centuries: today the Caribbean remains one of the world's great shopping destinations.

As any Caribbean vacationer will tell you, the experience can be summed up in just two words: ?Duty Free."

This shopping overview details what each island is known for, whether it's locally made crafts or European imports. For more detailed information, check the link for each island.
