One of the best souvenirs of a holiday in Goa, in my view, is a length of sari fabric – or several. I never tired of admiring the gorgeous colours and would stop to admire them whenever I got the chance. It was inevitable that I would succumb to temptation! In the end I bought two. One was a beautiful peacock green silk, edged with gold embroidery, which I bought in a tailor’s shop in Baga and had made up into a skirt and sleeveless top at a very reasonable cost – I think £30 for both, including both the fabric itself and the labour. The other was a copper-coloured length, shot with gold threads, which I brought home as it was and which now drapes our dining room window. I bought this in a lively town in Karnataka, name now sadly forgotten, for a ridiculously cheap £10.

Anjuna is known throughout North Goa and to travellers from all over the world for its flea market which takes place every Wednesday at the Beach. You can find hundreds of stalls selling clothes, jewellery, souvenirs, food, drink, cigarettes, artwork, shoes....well basically anything and everything. However, it seems more geared up for women than men as I only found belts and watches for us guys.

Malini Ramani is one of the hottest designers to come out of india in the past decade. She resides in goa and that echoes in all her clothes. Slightly pricey but they make lovely thoughful gifts for significant others back home. Plus it shows you were thinking of them in the middle of paradise.
What to buy: Her bags are unique. Stay away from the shades and jewellery. They are bought and not created.
What to pay: Rs. 1500 up

There are tons of good Jewelers all over Goa, but based on a reccommendation from a Goan friend I use this shop. They make their own pieces, and its all 22 carat gold. If you take in your own design, or want an old piece copied they can do it. Ask for Deepak Prasan.

If you find yourself longing to listen to something different while you're away, in Palolem there is a shop where you can go and download music onto your iPod from their computers, for fairly reasonable prices. They also sell new iPods, albeit at much the same price as in Europe, so if yours gets broken, you can replace it here.

If you're in need of some reading material for while you're lying on the beach, there is a little second hand bookshop next to the internet cafe on the road leading to Hi Tide. He will do swaps, but you won't get much money off your purchase. He does have a decent selection though, although probably fewer 'classics' in the mix here than anywhere else! Prices range from 150-400 INR I think, mostly depending on the size of the book.
