Overview

Shopping The guide was updated: 2024-02-12

There are no large-scale shopping centres in Dubrovnik, so target your shopping passions in and around the Old Town. In the Old Town, on the main street Stradun, you will find a row of independent stores where local artisans, designers and producers sell their products. Think souvenir shops and more luxurious stores that sell jewellery, gems and clothes. Croatian speciality like olive oil, honey, herb-flavoured rakijas and wine are also easy to get in the area. For more interesting souvenirs to bring back home, head over to the picturesque side streets in the Old Town.

Dubrovnik also has some fine outdoor markets which are well worth a visit. You can buy fresh vegetables, fruit, olive oils, souvenirs and pretty much everything else you could possibly need.

Old Town

Old Town

Dubrovnik’s Old Town offers the best shopping and plenty of variety for its visitors. The Stradun houses the oldest pharmacy in the world, and from there shops fan out in all directions. There are all sorts of souvenir shops in the vicinity and other types of retail shops can be easily found in the streets around Stradun. In the alleyways you can find everything you need, such as shoe shops, jewellery, clothes, bookshops and plenty of old crafts shops. One of the most fascinating craft shops is "Ronchi", a hat-making enterprise housed near the market square, which was established in 1858.
