"Shopping around." Santorini Island Shopping Tip by tere1

What to buy: I must confess that everywhere I go I love shopping for food and wines and I love groceries and markets.

In Santorini you will see many gold jelllery shops, specially in Fira, but that's a thing I don't care for.
For food items you can buy excellent olive oil ( I bought one from Crete that is delicious), olives and wines ( Santorini wines are famous).

Another thing you will see is sea sponges , less expensive than in other places and many bath and beauty items made from Greek ingredients: olive oil, honey and other natural products.

Before we sailed to the islands Janet and Galatea gently offered us, among other things, some natural beauty Greek products for our trip which are excellent. The brands names are 'Apivita' and 'Korres". I will write a tip on these products in my Athens page.

Greek handpainted pottery is also a lovely gift for you to buy to your friends and family or to buy for yourself.
