Though Aruba is not a duty-free port, its duty is low enough to make for excellent shopping for local and imported merchandise. Aruba's stylish boutiques offer the finest in exclusive watches, jewelry, diamonds, cosmetics, crystal, china, perfumes, state-of-the-art electronics, souvenirs, international fashions from leading designers - and much more.

Most of Aruba's shopping is concentrated in the capital of Oranjestad. The downtown and harborfront areas boast colorful malls and main street boutiques and shops. Jewelry stores are plentiful on Aruba and specialties include watches, gold, diamonds, tanzanite and many other precious stones.

Casting an inviting neon glow on the city center after dusk, Oranjestad's popular open-air malls are also home to a variety of live nightly entertainment. Major shopping centers are The Forum Shops, Royal Plaza Mall, Renaissance Mall & Marketplace, Paseo Herencia Mall, Palm Beach Plaza Mall, and South Beach Centre.

Beyond the malls and shops, the wharf area and popular Tourist Go Flea Market can be a bargain-hunter's dream.
