Bowen Islands gift shops.

Bowen Island has many gift shops along the main road in Snug Cove and up in Artisan Square. True to island living, most of the shops will be open on the weekends but may be closed on Monday or Tuesday. Do plan ahead and check their hours so not to interrupt your shopping time.

Bowen Island is home to Candy in the Cove, the self-proclaimed smallest candy store in the world.

The shelves are packed with nostalgic candies that will take you back in time with only one bite.

Do you love to shop in thrift stores? This re-use it shop is perfect for those that love bragging about buying that something special for nearly nothing: clothing, books, games, DVDs, shoes, coats, home decor, etc. Plus, with every purchase, you are contributing toward a wide variety of donations back to Bowen sustainability efforts.

The Knick Knack Nook Re-Use-It Store Society was developed out of a long tradition of environmental commitment on Bowen to reduce, reuse and recycle. Read about their history and success here.
