Artes Maconde
Artes Maconde has an excellent selection of carvings and other crafts from around the country. They do international air and sea shipping and also take orders for local crafts and carvings. For anyone interested in high-quality Mozambican crafts, it's an essential stop. There's another outlet at the Pemba Beach Hotel in Praia de Wimbi.

Fish Market
At Paquitequete's northern edge is a small Fish Market. The nearby beach buzzes with activity in the early morning as makuti (dried palm fronds used for constructing roofs), bamboo and other building materials are unloaded and readied for market.
