Port Albert Shopping

What to buy: Shopping is just so much part of our lives these days that it's a rare bird indeed that comes home from a trip of any length without something they didn't take with them. Like everywhere else that attracts tourists and visitors, Port Albert has its retail therapy outlets. Even if you're not staying at Rodondo B&B, you can pop in to check out the small gift gallery there - homemade jams and chutneys, quirky ceramics made by a local artist, bits and pieces such as old prints and toy boats and capacious bags made from interesting fabrics are just some of the things you'll find here. Owner Sue will have her bags hanging on the verandah if she's open.

Across the road the General Store has more jams and such, plus other gift items with a mainly foodie theme. The Maritime Museum has model boats and lighthouses and other nautical knick-knacks.
