When you’re not hitting the beach or the best seafood restaurants, you might find yourself looking for the perfect souvenir, or maybe just a new pair of sunglasses for long days enjoying the outdoors. For those who love a bit of retail-therapy, we’ve compiled a list of the top Sanibel Island shopping centers below!
Periwinkle Way
Definitely the most well-known shopping center on Sanibel, Periwinkle Way gives guests plenty of dining and shopping options, and a beautiful walkable area with quaint-looking shops, green foliage, and a gorgeous fountain. Grab a snack at the Blue Giraffe Grill and browse Sanibel shops selling everything from handmade soaps to fashionable beachwear.
Sanibel Outlets
This Sanibel shopping center is just over the causeway, but if you love your designer goods at reasonable prices, it’s absolutely worth the journey. Boasting stores by designers from Calvin Klien to Coach, it can be a luxurious way to relax during your vacation and pick up a few incredibly well-made designer pieces for a fraction of the retail price!
Tahitian Gardens
One of several Sanibel Island shopping centers that are only about a mile apart, Tahitian Gardens is a great starting point for a fun day of browsing shops. Offering several affordable restaurants that serve meals from breakfast to dinner, it’s an ideal place to grab a meal and then shop everything from local outerwear shops to unique gift shops. Pick up some elegant Florida décor to remind you of your vacation back home, or a piece of jewelry for someone special!
The Village Shops
Spend a late morning having brunch followed by a day of shopping or have a casual lunch after perusing the stores. Pick up some upscale home goods with a nautical theme or admire the work in local galleries. If you’d really like to pamper yourself, there’s even a hair salon!
Olde Sanibel Shops
This Sanibel shopping center is right in the heart of the island and offers up a classic old Florida vibe and local boutiques selling a variety of handmade goods, everything from custom frames to candles and clothing. This shopping center is also walkable with your pet, and there’s a pet boutique where you can pick your little buddy up a treat!
