You won’t find any of those familiar upscale department stores on the
island, nor will you see any big-box discount venues. Shopping on Orcas
often consists of browsing through homegrown, island-made merchandise.
With a large number of resident artists from amateur to seasoned
professionals, your choices of images and mementos to remind you of your
visit here are many.
Of course you can always find the ubiquitous T-shirt with local sayings
or images, local cookbooks, photos, pottery, music, books, clothing and
a wide variety of other island-related items. A fabulous gift for a
friend or special occasion or holiday is close at hand in any of the
shops within the quaint hamlets or in one of the many retail stores in
historic buildings nestled in their private settings sprinkled around
the island. Enjoy part of your stay here browsing for that certain just
right souvenir or gift!
