Information: The
Bakau Craft Market was established in 1971 at Cape
Point by the women of the area who used to offer
for sale crafted African style items such as beads,
masks etc. In 1982 it was moved opposite to the African
Village Hotel side entrance. In 1999 it came to its
final location.
There are almost 50 spacious stalls which can allow
for 10 visitors. You will find the locals selling a
large variety of tourist souvenirs such as sand paintings,
table cloths, masks, drums, tie dye curtains and sheets,
batiks and jewellery from gold, silver or other materials.
Directions: Go northwards on the Atlantic
Road from Fajara until you reach the roundabout at the
start of Cape Point.
Opening Hours:
8am to 7pm |
