2 Best Shopping in Holetown and Vicinity, Barbados

At this family-owned and -operated pottery workshop, items range from dishes and knickknacks to complete dinner services and one-of-a-kind art pieces. The characteristically blue or green—and, more recently, peach and brown—pottery decorates hotel rooms and is sold in gift shops throughout the island, but the biggest selection (including "seconds") is here, where you also can watch the potters at work. They'll carefully pack your purchase for traveling or ship it home for you.

Artist and gallery owner Vanita Comissiong offers an array of original paintings by Barbadian artists, along with handmade arts and crafts and jewelry products. Additional galleries are located at Limegrove Lifestyle Centre in Holetown and in a dedicated space at Champers restaurant in Rockley on the South Coast.
