One thing that Dubrovnik is known for is embroidery, and the best place to find it is in the region of Konavle located between Dubrovnik and Cavtat, but as the cruise traveler meanders the Old Town stumbling upon locals selling embroidery is inevitable.
If you are seeking handmade jewelry, Swarovski crystal or famous brands, the place to go is right on the main street of the Old City where you will find shops like Benetton and Max Mara. For those looking for more competitive prices, try some of the shops on the side streets off the Placa - Stradum. Also, you might want to check out the daily market on the Gundulić Square
