Old Town

Whilst strolling around Old Town, look out for the smaller souvenir and jewellery shops tucked away amongst ancient houses, bars and eateries. Some have interesting selections of trinkets and goodies, just bear in mind that they may be costly and prices are subjective. Haggling is always a good option to have in your back pocket.

Les Terrasses d'Aragon

For those in search of a more original souvenir to replace the basic fridge magnet or keyring, the artisans of Les Terrasses d'Aragon fashion traditional knives and jewellery made from locally sourced coral and the operculums of sea snails, the latter of which brings luck according to a local legend. Just remember to pack any sharp objects in checked baggage as it would be a shame to have such a thoughtfully crafted trinket confiscated by customs. Online purchases are also available so it may even be easier to get them shipped.

L'Oriu di Chera

Coppa, figatellu and lonzu are three of the most sought after cold meats in Corsica, all of which feature in Bonifacio's favourite deli. Here at L'Oriu di Chera, you enter into a world of meaty delights hanging down from the ceiling. These exceptional products, along with other gourmet cheeses and preserves are thoughtfully presented by the friendly owner and staff who clearly take great pride in their work.

La Maison du Liège

La Maison du Liège, known for exquisite craftsmanship and upcycling, offers a wide range of cork products that are not only beautiful but durable, waterproof and sustainably sourced. Whether you're looking for a unique vase, a stylish purse or a simple keyring to bring back home as a souvenir, this is the place for all things cork.

Mer et Découvertes

Patrice Arend, owner of Mer et Découvertes and collector of maritime antiquities presents his assembly of weathered gems in this charming antiques shop within a 15th century cave. With a specialisation in this field, he offers a captivating glimpse into the history of the old town and the marina. A visit to his shop is a must for those with a penchant for historical treasures and for any hobbyists looking to expand their own collections.
