The main place for shopping in Rethymno is of course Rethymno Old Town. This Medieval settlement is great for strolling around and shopping, as its paved paths are lined up with all kind of shops: from stores with clothes and shoes to jewelries, souvenir shops and art galleries. Shops in Rethymno Town stay open until late at night and create a charming atmosphere in the evenings.
In the villages and beach resorts of the region, chances for shopping in Rethymno are limited. The main tourist places, such as Plakias, Bali and Agia Galini, have an organized shopping center. However, the smaller villages have only a mini-market to cover the daily needs of visitors. Here are some shops in Rethymno. Each shop is presented with detailed text, photos and point on Google map. All request forms go directly to the shop manager.
