Hi friends! I’m excited to share everything you need to know about shopping in Nantucket. This was my third trip to the Grey Lady and as always the shopping was amazing! There’s something for everyone; from small souvenirs, to high-end designer styles, and home decor. In my opinion, it’s the best shopping destination on the East Coast. I bought cool t-shirts for each of my boys and husband, gifts for my son’s girlfriend, our parents, and… some treasures for me. I actually needed an extra suitcase to bring everything home that I bought while I was there!
It’s such a breath of fresh air to shop and stroll around downtown Nantucket. Each shop is so unique and many of them offer shipping, in case you see something you have to have (like I did). I had a few things shipped to me once I arrived home, because I kept dreaming of them. Ha ha!
In case you have a trip planned to Nantucket or you’d like to shop them online, here are five (of the many) shops I visited while I was there this summer. You can also head over to Shop Nantucket for a full list of shops and dining options.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SHOPPING IN NANTUCKET
ACK4170
ACK4170Â was such a fun shop to visit! I loved everything there, including the adorable anchor tote you see in photo above! I also loved getting to meet Susan, the shop owner. We had the best time chatting! Susan has the cutest assortment of Christmas ornaments, candles, hats, entertaining pieces, Nantucket baskets, and more! She sells hundreds of candles during the Christmas Stroll too! I can just imagine how cute this store looks during that special holiday event! I definitely need to plan to attend it one year!
Skinny Dip Nantucket
I had fun trying on beautiful summer dresses and the iconic Nantucket sweater at Skinny Dip. I always wanted one of these sweaters and was so happy to bring one home with me this year! If you’re looking for the perfect vacation dress, then this is the shop to visit. Check out the dresses I tried on below!

Grace Geier
I had such a blast trying on some styles in Grace Geier and getting to know Nelly, the shop owner. What a doll! The following day, I went back to buy this beautiful white embroidered dress as a treat to myself for beginning my full-time blogging career. I felt like this dress was perfect to celebrate the occasion so wore it out to dinner! I also loved the striped cashmere sweater that is always a great choice for summer and the perfect coastal grandmother must-have.

Bodega
I love shopping for coastal home decor and the Bodega shop had the most beautiful finds, including a lovely selection of nautical mats I haven’t seen anywhere else, designer candles, gorgeous throw pillows, and more. You can even get design services there for your home.
Olivela
Olivela is always fun to visit and this summer they had a special Valentino collection which was fun to check out. I love the cute little studded bags! They were all so dreamy! You can also shop beauty, resort wear, bags, shoes, and more! Olivela is where I was first introduced to my favorite Oribe hair products!
