Tourist Village Flea Market

Belize City


On the street outside the Tourist Village, local vendors set up tents and tables to sell their wares, which include T-shirts with snappy slogans, original jewelry, woven bags and blankets, and plenty of carved wooden items. Quality varies widely and prices are negotiable.

This is one of the few places in Belize where vendors are not afraid to engage in the hard sell. On non-cruise days, the selection is limited, but you might find a few scattered tables.
