After the neighboring House of Treasure shop closed in 2001, its pirate merchandise was transferred into the surrounding Plaza del Sol Caribe Bazaar, consolidating the area's pirate-goods retail into this store.
Through the 1990s the shop grew increasingly cluttered with pirate and faux-Caribbean merchandise, shifting from an atmospheric walkthrough space into 'more of a true shop and less of an atmospheric walk.'
Plaza del Sol Caribe Bazaar opened in 1973 in Adventureland's Caribbean Plaza as the gift shop at the exit of Pirates of the Caribbean, originally selling atmospheric items like sombreros, coconut-carved pirate heads, pirate swords, and wind chimes overflowing from carts.
