Cozumel Art Galleries
(Cozumel, Quintana Roo, Mexico, MX)



The island of Cozumel is home to a number of local Mexican artists, who sell their art works through various shops around San Miguel de Cozumel. Visitors to this town will soon realise that it has an impressive and unusual art scene and some on the local artists even own galleries, where their pieces are well exhibited.

The glassworks at the Galeria Azul are extremely eye-catching and often features a bold and colourful marine theme, with images of turtles, rays, dolphins, coral reefs, exotic fish and other animals from around Cozumel. For something quite different, the intricate feather paintings at the Balam Mayan Feather Gallery always make for a particularly unique souvenir and something that is sure to remind you of your time in Cozumel and become quite a talking piece. Further information on these two Cozumel galleries is shown below.

San Miguel's Balam Mayan Feather Gallery is always popular with tourists, who find these unusual art works to be the perfect Mexican holiday souvenir. Situated on the northern side of the town plaza, this unusual shop specialises in the traditional art of actually painting directly onto local bird feathers and the end results can be both large and small, but always extremely detailed and impressive, often depicting flowers, fish, people and even the country's flag. The feather paintings are always well presented in attractive, complimentary picture frames. Prices vary enormously, but many of the smaller pieces are quite affordable.
