Local souvenirs shop

Gate side in T2, this souvenir shop saves a last-minute scramble

This Local souvenirs shop sits airside in Terminal 2, so you can grab gifts after immigration and security instead of racing around landside. It mainly targets international departures, so stock skews toward compact items that pass cabin baggage rules. Expect shelves of Cebu-themed keychains, magnets, and small pouches that fit easily in a backpack already stuffed from a Bohol run.

Most basic keychains and magnets run around a few dozen pesos each, with multipacks bundling 4–6 pieces at a small discount compared with buying singly. Larger items like printed tote bags and T2-branded mugs jump into the low hundreds of pesos, which is still less than you’d pay in many city-center malls. Payment is usually in Philippine pesos, but many airport shops in CEB T2 also accept major cards, so keep a Visa or Mastercard handy.

Food gifts lean on dried mangoes, local candies, and small snack packs sized for carry-on limits, usually in 100 g to 200 g bags. Prices land a bit higher than Robinsons Galleria or Ayala Center Cebu, but still reasonable for airport markups. If you already bought big 1 kg mango packs in town, use this spot for smaller sealed bags that are easier to share in-flight or at the office.

The shop keeps the same long operating window as most Terminal 2 concessions, generally opening before the first international bank around 04:00 and staying open until close to the last outbound wave after 22:00. That means you can still pick up something even if you roll into CEB from a late domestic connection through Terminal 1 and shuttle across to T2 with little time to spare.

Tip: If you want specific designs, stop here before heading to your far-out gates, as options shrink the closer you get to certain end-of-pier departure doors in Terminal 2.
