    D'Mall is the only Decent Shopping Mall in Boracay (there are many flea markets in Boracay but this is the only Concrete Mall). Inside this Mini-Complex are various Eateries that Offer International Cuisine (off course since Boracay is an International Destination) at mid price, Various Stalls that offer beach wear (again mid price and more expensive that the various flea markets), clothes, accessories, toiletries, coffe shops, a supermarket and ATM's.

    Food, Beach Wear and Accessories, Coffee, Dry Goods, etc.

    food at 200 pesos a person, coffee at 60 pesos a cup, flip-flops at 300 pesos amd a lot more

    Searching for an unusual souvenir or personalised present? This shop can create a pair of sandals for you to almost any design, or you can choose from some of the weird and wonderful creations mounted on the wall. They'll also repair broken shoes/bags for you for P10.

    The price for a basic pair of sandals starts at around P150.

    It doesn't come much fresher than this! Why buy your seafood from the market when you can buy it from a local fisherman on the beach? Watch out for guys passing by carrying boxes and baskets. There's even a guy who sells delicious hot roasted chicken. You'll recognise him by his loud shouts of "Lechon Manok!"
    If your resort doesn't offer a cooking service, ask around - many places will be happy to BBQ your meal for you.

    Many things are available - fish, prawns, squid, oysters, lobster...

    Prices vary depending on what you buy and how much it weighs. It's usually cheaper to buy seafood from a beach vendor than from a shop.

    This is my favourite little shop in the Plazoleta; it is owned and run by a local musician and artist called Diango. You can see him at work creating beautiful handmade leather bags, some of them adorned with puka shells, beads, or bells made by the T'Boli tribe from Mindanao. No two bags are the same so they make lovely gifts (if you can bear to part with them)!

    Bags, lamps, sarongs, drums, clothing and other arts and crafts.

    Bags start at around P1200

    The Plazoleta is a small native style shopping plaza on White Beach. It's without a doubt the best place to find native arts and crafts, jewelry, sarongs, carvings, lanterns etc. There are a variety of little shops to choose from.

    Funky Lighting sell a weird and wonderful variety of lamps in many different styles and colours, and they are all hand made on the island. You won't have seen anything quite like these before.

    There are many different styles, some made from handmade paper, others made from cocoa or mango leaves. Check out the cute 'gecko' lamp.

    Prices vary. They can also arrange for orders to be packed and shipped home for you.

    Heidiland: Boracay Deli - Wide Array of Cheese

    Heidiland, the name is taken from a Swiss town near the Alps. Yes, the owner is Swiss, its very much like the famed Santi's here in Manila, selling wide array of cheese , cold cuts, Angus beef's, and other European brand of delis.

    The staff are all very knowledgeable of the items that they are selling and all very helpful.
    The shop is not for all, but it is really a favorite haunt of the foreigners living in Boracay that miss the salamis and cheeses widely available in Europe.

    There are a wide choice of imported European cheese, that you can buy with minimum of 100grams.

    Fresh vegetables are also available, good for salads.

    If you want to prepare your own sandwich, for island hopping trip, buy some cold cuts, cheese, and those baguette's 2 the store. Very near that place is Ralph's Spirits for some wine, as a perfect complement.



    Credit card and cash are accepted.

    This shop sells an array of beautiful things from the home, including lampshades, fabrics/rugs, artwork, wall-hangings, cushions, tablewear, ornaments, carvings and furniture. Many of these things are Philippine made, but there are other treasures from Thailand, India and Bali.
    As far as I know, this shop is not linked to the books of the same name.

    There are many different things on offer, even clothing.

    Price-wise, Lonely Planet is above average, but it's worth it if you want something unusual and original for your home.

    There are a wide variety of little gift shops in the mall selling almost anything you can imagine, from the tacky (there's way too much cheap tie-dye clothing) to the unusual (beautiful silver jewelry and wooden carvings). Some shops have a fixed price system, whereas others will allow you to haggle. Shop around, as you'll come across the same items in several outlets.
    Wiggles has a nice selection of gifts and souvenirs such as silver jewelry, picture frames, hand-made paper notebooks, bags and sarongs.
    Another favourite of mine is Juan Lu, (towards the back of the Mall, near the wet market) which is one of the best craft shops on the island. Check out the wind-chimes, dream catchers, bamboo lamp-shades, rain-sticks and hand-made jewelry, amongst other unusual treasures.
    The best place for silver and pewter jewelry is Crystal Shack, near Hey Jude bar. They have just about every kind of pendant you can imagine, as well as pretty bracelets, anklets and rings.
    Next door, Colors has a lovely collection of sarongs, shell belts and accessories, and for more modern beach-wear, a visit to Ticket boutique is a must.
