Informal market stalls constructed from wood and palm thatch line the beachfront near Dominicus, Dominican Republic, offering handmade crafts and souvenirs to tourists. These structures are part of a long-standing tourism-driven micro-economy that has developed along the coast, providing a vital livelihood for local artisans in La Altagracia Province. The improvised nature of the stalls, some featuring painted steps and corrugated roofing, reflects the blend of local entrepreneurship and the demands of the resort industry in the region.
