Tourists who have studied the customs rules of the Dominican Republic and, as far as legislation allows, have already filled their suitcases with rum, mamajuana, coffee and cocoa while shopping, are thinking about what to buy in Dominican Republic of “long-lasting” souvenirs, in addition to local delicacies.
Dominican souvenirs for colleagues and friends
Travelers strive to please their loved ones with the gifts they brought, but signs of attention for colleagues and numerous acquaintances remain no less important and valuable. Among the inexpensive and authentic Dominican souvenirs, you can highlight magnets and wooden souvenirs.
Habanos COHIBA cigars.
Cohiba cigars, which you can treat your colleagues with, having the foresight to purchase a package or even a whole cigar case.
Boomerang from Punta Cana.
Wooden trinkets for the interior - traditional plates, masks or, for example, a boomerang from the Dominican Republic costing $8.
Coconut and shell magnets, priced at $3 each.
What to buy in the Dominican Republic for relatives
In addition to purchased organic cosmetics made from coconut, cocoa butter and “delicious” gifts, it is also worth purchasing individual gifts for relatives.
A high-quality 100% cotton T-shirt is a relevant item for every family member, especially since bright inscriptions and prints are especially relevant now.
Jewelry made from larimar, a stone of an indescribable blue hue, like the coastal waters of the Atlantic, will certainly appeal to girls. In particular, a heart-shaped pendant and ring set in silver can be purchased for $15 and $35, respectively. Before purchasing, it is recommended to contact the seller with a request to check the product with a lighter, so as not to purchase a plastic fake instead of a stone.
When deciding where to buy souvenirs in the Dominican Republic/Punta Cana of decent quality, it is better to play it safe and go shopping at a shopping center or supermarket. In this case, the tourist will also have receipts confirming the purchase amount.
