The Local Market Aruba

Located in the heart of downtown Oranjestad, just steps from the cruise terminal and main bus station, The Local Market Aruba is a vibrant, open-air flea market known for its colorful wooden stalls and lively atmosphere. A convenient stop for visitors exploring the capital, it offers a wide array of authentic Aruban souvenirs, handicrafts, and local goods. The market is situated across from the Valero (formerly Citgo) gas station and is easily recognized by its festive, Caribbean-style kiosks. It serves as a centralized hub where tourists can browse for gifts, chat with local vendors, and enjoy fresh local snacks like smoothies and coconut water. Unlike the high-end luxury malls nearby, this market focuses on affordable, locally inspired items and friendly bargaining
