One of the pleasures of exploring Trapani and its surroundings is to discover the little shops that specialise in local crafts, such as ceramics or leather goods. These shops are by far the best places where to buy souvenirs, since they are actually made on the premises. The choice is usually wider and the authenticity unquestionable.
Trapani is a small city, also for this it doesn't have a proper shopping centre, but you can easily find whatever you need in the supermarkets scattered all over the town or head over to the outdoor markets, where some of the best shopping can be done. At the vibrant markets in the Old town, you can buy local merchandise at really low prices, perfect when looking for souvenirs or gifts to bring back home. And when looking for clothes, head over to Via Torrearsa and Via Garibaldi also in the Old town, where plenty of trendy fashion boutiques selling women- and menswear are located.
Erice is particularly known for traditional souvenirs and antiques, whereas on island Favignana you can find a wide variety of products associated with its tuna catches. Lastly, if you are looking for chic boutiques where to buy a piece of Italian design Pantelleria Island is the best place.
