Carrie, where in Negril can I buy legit Bob Marley or Red Stripe gear? Maybe you find it hit or miss but I do not. I buy a ton of stuff at the airport because after a week in Negril I did not find items like those at any of the shops in town. Maybe you can tell me which local artisans sell Red Stripe or Bob Marley t-shirts and gear. And ones that are not cheap knockoffs or the like.

It's not like I'm not shopping in Negril during my time in town. For example, I can't wait to get another hammock from Seastar. But if you can't get what you want but know you can get it at the airport, so be it, who cares?

I cannot remember if they carried RedStripe or Bob Marley gear but Rock n' Roll gift shop next to Chances Pizza on the beach has very good quality shirt, etc bought a bunch almost a year ago and they are holding up very well. Owner is a very nice guy.

Traveling in July with a early flight home..anyone know what time the shops open at the airport?

Deanna,

I just spoke with Club Mobay and they as well as most if not all of the shops are open for the first flight!

See you soon!

was at the airport around 8:30am a week ago and not all the shops were open..many were just opening up...like in the food court area
if you need specific Red Stripe Beer or Harley stuff the airport is an easy place to pick up things......likkle pricey......but not gonna kill you
found the booze prices not that great as compared to years past......they are getting up there for whatever reason

Deanna those carvings are just beautiful. Where is he located at? I myself spend a boat load while in Negril. A few yrs ago we bought a Bob Marley t-shirt on the cliffs. My brother in law put it on and it was dry rotted. We just laughed it off. I also shop at the airport. I always seem to pick my spices up there. Those people are still working and earning a paycheck in there so you are helping out. Thats how I feel about Club MoBay. Nice people working to welcome you to Jamaica not trying to swindle you.

Hey Miss Honey! I am soooo excited to pick up my carvings! It's amazing how it totally has all my dogs features! Octavius Art is located in Negril Craft Market. I stumbled upon his work on Facebook and asked if he would be interested in making a carving of my dogs....well to my surprise...
Yes, I like to buy my spices at the airport as well I love Club Mobay as well....very nice people working there that always remember us when we travel

Heres a pic of my dogs so you can see how spot on and talented Octavius is

Octavius recently opened his second shop in the craft market, but he has set up shop and can usually be found along the beach set up at Negril Beach Club Condos - that is unless his situation has changed in the past two months.

He does great work and we will often give him a project idea when we first arrive, and it is completed before we are ready to return. Never been disappointed.

Deanna I just message Octavius. He had me send him 10 pictures of our dog and wants a video. he said it would be ready in Sept. Thank You.
