Souvenirs and handcraft Greek Islands

 Shopping

Except for Mykonos, the Greek Islands and Greece in general are not the best for shopping. However, you will be able to bring back olive oil, ouzo (local anisette), natural sponges (a typical souvenir from The Cyclades), as well as ceramics and traditional woven textiles, especially in the village of Apirathos, in Naxos. While you can buy copies of ancient jewellery on the mainland, you will also be able to find shell jewellery or Voulgaris' luxurious contemporary creations in Mykonos' old port. Shop opening hours are fairly complicated and depend on the day of the week: they are from 9:00 am to 2:30 pm/3:00 pm Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays and from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Thursdays and Fridays.
