Island Bazaar Gift Shop:…read more Island Bazaar Gift Shop has a wide variety of souvenirs and gifts, making it a convenient stop for finding something to remember your trip by.

Island Bazaar Gift Shop is okay to visit if you're in the area and looking for souvenirs, but there's definitely room for improvement in terms of pricing and items presented. It's decent but it didn't quite meet expectation
