"At Mopa Mopa in Oranjestad, local handicrafts aren’t just souvenirs—they’re decorative art. The gallery specializes in carved wooden figures, crafted lovingly in the traditional mopa mopa , or barniz de Pasto , style. To finish each piece, artisans paint them with vegetable dyes and resin-based lacquer, making for one-of-a-kind keepsakes. Visit the gallery to shop and speak with the artisans themselves, who will gladly answer questions and demonstrate their intricate techniques."

I have visited Aruba many times and I always come to this place to check out their absolutely amazing and rare one of a kind artwork. They are absolutely amazing, and the people who run the shop are always so friendly and helpful. They give you an explanation of how the art is made using resin from the mopa mopa tree. I would highly recommend visiting this shop and adding some beautiful artwork to your home that is truly priceless and timeless they last forever and are a great gift idea too. Thanks so much! You rock mopa mopa !!!

Mopa Mopa is a unique and fascinating shop — definitely worth a stop! The artwork is incredibly detailed and vibrant, showcasing real craftsmanship and creativity. Even if you’re just browsing, it’s a fun place to explore and appreciate something different. A great spot to pick up a special, handmade piece.

This gallery has stunning pieces of art! We were there for an hour having really nice conversations with the young lady that worked there. She was so personable and extremely knowledgeable of the ABC islands. We ended up buying this beautiful Sunburst and love it! What an unexpected and wonderful gem we happen to stumble upon!

Friendly staff, better prices than competitors. One thing about Mopa Mopa art is that it is not unique to Aruba but Columbia, nevertheless a unique souviner from Aruba.

I bought these beautiful pieces of AUTHENTIC ART. The picture makes the pieces seem a bit small. The amount of detail and the work the artists have put into it, is worth all the money that I have spent. This is a store that has been supporting a family in the South of Colombia for more than 30 years. As it is dificult to reach that place I always buy and support them from Aruba.. Thank you MOPA MOPA..

Fine dining, popovers, and chocolate martinis. The bar area is a great way to meet others. Beautiful pools, beach, and sunset view.

This store sells a wide selection of Mopa Mopa crafts. I had not previously heard of Mopa Mopa, so the employee kindly explained how the art pieces are carved out of wood by hand and decorated with resin from leaves and mineral powders. I now own a really lovely souvenir of a wood-carved bird. I highly recommend that people visit this store.
