4 Best Places to Shop in Tamarindo, Guanacaste and the Nicoya Peninsula

Background Illustration for Shopping

Most stores lining the main road along Diria Grand Boulevard sell the same souvenirs. It's hard to leave town without at least one sarong or T-shirt in your suitcase. There are a few upscale clothing and jewelry shops as well, and some worthy farmers' markets.

Azul Profundo Boutique

The theme of this Tamarindo boutique is “Don’t worry, be hippy,” with a collection of upscale beachwear and jewelry ranging from tie-dyed sundresses and OM pendants to pura vida earrings and wool belts. They also have beach bags, hats, and bikinis. Here you can find nicer clothes for men and women; head next door to Azul Profundo Kids for the little ones.

Buena Nena

If you've bought too many souvenirs on your trip, stop in this funky boutique to pick up one of their handmade bags—they have a glorious selection of cool patterns and sizes. If you haven't bought enough souvenirs, stop in to pick something out from their selection of well-made dresses, hats, and jewelry.
