Plaza Puerto Paraíso: The Ultimate Shopping Hub
If you want to shop like a local (and a tourist), head to Plaza Puerto Paraíso. It’s one of Cabo’s most popular malls, right on the marina. You’ll find a blend of everything here—brand-name stores, unique boutiques, and plenty of places to grab a snack or drink when you need a break from shopping.
Inside, the options are endless. You’ve got swimwear, jewelry, fashion accessories, and even electronics. Feeling a bit fancy? There are high-end stores, too. The best part is that you don’t even need to leave the mall for an ocean view—just look out the window.

If you’re into locally made handicrafts and love a good haggle, Marina Mercado is the spot for you. This outdoor market, located right by the marina, has everything from hand-painted pottery to colorful textiles. You will feel like stepping into a Mexican art gallery. However, it’s one where you can buy everything on the walls.
The vendors are friendly (and love a bit of bargaining). Don’t be afraid to haggle for that perfect souvenir. If you’re lucky, you might even get a bit of local advice on what to do with your new treasure.
The Glass Factory: Where Art Meets Shopping
Looking for something a little more unique? Skip the usual trinkets and head to The Glass Factory. Here, you can watch artisans create stunning glass pieces right before your eyes. This isn’t just shopping; it’s a performance.
Watch as they turn molten glass into beautiful vases, animal figurines, and colorful mosaics. It brings an experience of being at a live art show. At the end, you can take home the masterpiece.

The Artisan Market: For Those Who Want the Real Deal
If you’re a fan of artisan markets, The Artisan Market near the marina will give you all the feels. From handwoven baskets to beaded jewelry, this market is the place to find authentic Mexican goods. Every stall is a mini gallery filled with locally made crafts. Here, you’ll find one-of-a-kind pieces that showcase the creativity of local artisans.
Do you want something truly special? Keep an eye out for the brightly colored painted wooden figurines or the traditional Mexican masks. These are not your average souvenirs. They’re also pieces of culture you will want to show off when you get home.
Furthermore, the experience of walking through the market and chatting with the vendors adds a personal touch to every purchase.
