after a wonderful experince at the island one can have cirios to take home and share with their loved ones.......these range from beatiful sculptures to t-shirts with the face of nelson mandela...whata amazinfg is the stores are owned bt locals who are able to communicate in any language that you need assistance in. the curios that you will find over here are made proudly south african.which meeans that the money made stays within the country.....i find that to be very amazing.which also shows tht the destination actually creates jobs for the local youth and elderly......as the prison would need abit more qualified people to do the tours which would mean students out of school.the stores actually cater for those un educated adults who desperatly need jobs.........
