Shops and roadside stalls offer you plenty of opportunities to buy affordable and colourful beachwear, designer knockoffs and conventional souvenirs, as well as local produce.
The main shopping street in Zakynthos Town is Odos Alexandras Roma, two blocks back from the harbour esplanade, which has a great abundance of shops selling leatherware and gold and silver jewellery, all of which are handmade and well designed.
Elsewhere, the shopping streets in the resorts concentrate on souvenirs and beachwear or toys and other essential holiday equipment such as suncream, dive masks or snorkels. Ceramic workshops are also very popular among tourists, offering numerous gift ideas and fine pottery.
