Palau’s best-known art form is the storyboard. These are carvings on various lengths of wood, sometimes shaped into crocodiles, turtles or fish and painted. The storyboards depict Palauan stories taken from about 30 popular legends or recorded events. In addition to the storyboards, models of bais (men’s meeting buses), canoes and sculptured figurines called dilukai are also carved.
Other gifts include jewellery, etchings and baskets, purses, hats and mats woven from pandana leaves and palm. In addition to these local crafts, the Palau Pacific Resort has a duty-free shop, which features locally produced items as well as designer and brand name gifts.
Shopping hours: Mon-Sat 0800-2100.
