Even when it comes to shopping, Dubrovnik stays true to itself: every outlet, every stop on the tourist shopping map is a landmark that can be studied like a rare piece in a museum.
Dubrovnik's morning market, which is located on Gundulićeva Poljana square every day except Sunday, is a colorful and diverse place. Fresh farm produce, magical tinctures, spice kits and marvelous sweets line the stalls.
We recommend trying the delicate local strawberries, and as a souvenir, take away pads with lavender. Don't forget about arancini - candied orange peel, quince marmalade - kontonjata, olive oil, soap scented with laurel and rosemary. Fill up your "souvenir package" at Marine D'amour, a cozy store on Od Puca with the largest selection of magnets and handicrafts by local artists starting from 4 EUR.
The Croatia boutique and the old hat store Ronchi, founded in 1858, deserve special attention among Dubrovnik stores. For only 20-80 EUR, you can buy a stylish hat made of straw or fabric, order an exclusive hat created according to your measurements within a few days, or purchase an exquisite silk tie starting from 30 EUR. According to travelers' reviews, this is the kind of shopping in Dubrovnik that brings the most pleasure.
