Downtown Fairhope
Searching for that one-of-a-kind, knock-me-over with a feather Christmas gift? It’s a good thing you’re near Alabama’s Coastal Connection because your odds of finding the mother-of-all gifts just increased! Why? Because folks on the Gulf Coast know a few things, like how to bake the perfect pecan pie, who has the freshest seafood and where to find the most unique gifts. It’s not a mystery that if it’s shopping you want, it all starts with Alabama’s Coastal Connection. Besides the cool finds, you’ll enjoy a stellar view too!
Looking for an antique for an amateur collector? Visit Aubergine, Antiques and Uniques of Fairhope or Downtown Antiques. Searching for a rare book? Take the hunt to Page and Palette or Book Inn.
Right along 98 you can find dozens of local shops with everything from hand-crafted furniture, seascape artwork and just about anything you can imagine. You can’t pass by Olde Towne Daphne without making a pit stop! Each town on Alabama’s Coastal Connection offers a myriad of distinctive offerings via both individually-owned boutique shops and the national brands you know well.
Downtown Foley
Have you been to beautiful Point Clear recently? It’s another hot spot for antiques and even specialty shops like Punta Clara Kitchens with its scented candles and specialty items. Downtown Foley offers antiques and collectibles galore. The shops of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach serve up everything from coastal souvenirs to fabulous works of art and everything in between. And on it goes!
Listing all the hot spots here is impossible and discovering a new, favorite gift shop is half the fun. Don’t forget, if you’re Christmas shopping for locals or those planning a visit, gift cards from their favorite restaurants or attractions might be the perfect choice for those hard-to-buy for folks. While you’re out and about, treat yourself to something delicious like lunch or dinner at Windmill Market in Fairhope.
Have fun and enjoy a Coastal Christmas!
