Shopping Near the Beachcomber

Shopping is a key goal for many people visiting the Beachcomber Resort. Whether you are in the mood for new clothes, souvenirs, or something else entirely, the surrounding area has a lot to offer. Take a stroll down the boardwalk or venture a little further into the surroundings of Seven Mile Island, and you are bound to find exactly what you are looking for. Here are some shops to be aware of:
96th Street
If you’re looking for a place to browse, consider 96th Street. This is a quaint little walk filled with plenty of interesting boutiques and stores. You’ll also find the “free shop,” which is a perfect stop for anyone who loves thrifting. Another local favorite on 96th Street is “Life is Good,” a shop focusing on fun novelties like mugs, t-shirts, and hats. Olive Tree is another popular gift shop along 96th Street, and many people stop here to buy gifts.
Sun Catcher Surf Shop
If you’d like to experience the local surf culture, then you should definitely stop by Sun Catcher Surf Shop. This might also be a solid choice if you’re looking for slightly younger, more trendy clothing. While they sell surfboards and skimboards, visitors might be more interested in a surf-style hoodie or hat.
Dune Drive
Dune Drive is another popular shopping street in Avalon. Armadillo Limited is another popular stop for anyone looking for a gift. Aside from local shops, you’ll also find recognizable names like Avalon Surf and Lululemon.
Shorelines
Shorelines is an excellent option if you’re looking for souvenirs. While this establishment also sells clothes, it is quite popular for home goods as well. You’ll find many locally crafted items here, allowing you to take home something truly authentic.
Check Out the Farmers’ Markets
If you’d like to get a taste of the local culture, there’s nothing better than a farmer’s market. Cape May County hosts plenty of farmers’ markets in various towns, although you might have to leave Avalon to check them out.
For example, the Wildwood Farmers Market occurs on Saturdays. The West Cape May Farmers Market occurs on Tuesday, and the Ocean City Farmers Market occurs on Wednesdays. This should give you plenty of time to check out at least one of these local markets during your trip to Avalon.
Can You Take Souvenirs From the Beach?
There are no specific rules about taking souvenirs from the beach. As a result, you might want to collect a few seashells during your visit. However, you should always make sure that the shells are empty before you collect them. You can also find local jewelers who might use seashells for necklaces and other items.
