Norfolk Island is a duty-free and GST-free shopping haven where you’ll find over 50 stores selling everything from sporting goods and imported shoes to cosmetics, jewellery and artwork. Forget boring chain stores and cookie-cutter franchises, Norfolk Island’s shops are locally owned and operated. We pride ourselves on our delightfully varied shopping too, from our bricks-and-mortar stores to our colourful galleries, lively markets and delightful honesty boxes. And best of all, when you shop on Norfolk Island you’re supporting our families, farmers, artists and craftspeople.
You can easily while away hours browsing the goodies in our independent boutiques and retail shops. Treat yourself to a piece of handcrafted jewellery and a bottle of island liqueur, or get kitted out in a new pair of shoes or the latest golf wear. Kids will love checking out the latest surfwear, the great range of LEGO, and the locally made chocolates and fudges. Shopping in Norfolk Island is an adventure for the whole family.
Our local markets and roadside stalls are one of the best ways to experience real Norfolk Island life. Pick up seasonal produce from the Saturday morning farmers market or stop by the roadside stalls and honesty boxes for all manner of locally grown goodies. On Sundays, go souvenir shopping at the weekly market at the Bicentennial Complex for a selection of arts, crafts and home-cooked creations.
Norfolk Island’s natural beauty fuels a deep creative energy in our people. Several of our finest artists and artisans display and sell their work in galleries across the island. Discover our artistic side as you explore galleries filled with photography, painting, pottery and weaving. Gallery visits are often a great way to meet the makers too, and perhaps discuss a bespoke commission to perfectly complement your home or office.
We’re well-equipped when it comes to everyday services too. Our Visitor Information Centre should be your first port of call if you have any questions during your stay. Our friendly staff will point you in the right direction, from where to find the best honesty boxes, to how to ship home that oversized artwork you just had to have. With a local bank, liquor shop, petrol stations and internet cafes you’ll be well taken care of while you’re here. We even have two real estate agents, just in case you decide to stay for good!
