Near T1 gates at ADZ, Isla Shop covers last-minute island bits
Isla Shop sits airside in Terminal T1 at Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport, a small stop for beachy souvenirs and travel basics before boarding. Expect a tight space with shelves of San Andrés-branded items rather than a big duty free market. You’re through security already, so this is a quick lap while you watch boarding times on the nearby screens.
Pricing lines up with island tourist spots: magnets and keychains often land around COP 10,000–20,000, with T‑shirts and caps creeping higher. Snacks and bottled drinks cost more than in town but still under typical US airport levels. Figure on a five-minute browse if you just want a token gift, maybe 10–15 minutes if you’re comparing shirts or beach bags for family.
Stock tends to skew toward small gifts and convenience buys: fridge magnets, shot glasses, logo mugs, flip‑flops, basic hats, and some simple beachwear. Don’t expect premium electronics or high‑end liquor like in a big hub; ADZ is a regional island airport and Isla Shop mirrors that scale. If you skipped the free‑tax market in town, this is more of a backup than a full replacement.
Hours generally track flight banks, so the shop opens early for the first departures and may wind down after the last evening flights on Avianca or LATAM. Inventory can look picked over on busy holiday weekends, especially on Sunday flights back to Bogotá. Tip: if you care about specific designs or sizes, swing by on the way to your gate instead of waiting until final boarding calls.
