Unearthing treasures you weren’t expecting to find is what makes shopping so much fun – and that’s exactly what’s likely to happen if you explore Katikati’s main street.

Katikati is well-known for its outdoor murals and sculptures and you can tap into this local artistic flair at The Art, Crafts and Murals shop. Here you’ll find New Zealand-made artworks and gifts for all occasions. Children’s toys made from wool, felt and fur are for sale alongside possum and marino clothing, felted hats and scarves. Take home a lovely embroidered tea towel or some delicious local preserves. Or buy a special piece of greenstone, bone or paua jewellery.

If you love good wine you can’t go past Finer Wines – one of the very best wine shops you’ll find anywhere in New Zealand. Over 14,000 bottles of local and international wines are for sale here from 2200 different producers and vintages. Ask their expert staff for a recommendation if you have a special meal or occasion in mind.

If you like searching for retro items or special collectables including furniture, china and glass, there are two shops you must visit – Katikati Antiques and Interiors, and Limited Edition on Main. You’ll find some amazing things here at very reasonable prices.

Fashion lovers can also find bargains at several op shops or upmarket clothing retailers. Whether you’re after something casual or a special occasion outfit, you can find it in Katikati.
