Gift ideas

Everyone knows that bringing back souvenirs can be quite time consuming! Surprise your family and friends with some really exotic buys like perfume oils, sample soils from our Seven Coloured Earths and rattan handbags woven by hand.

Tease their taste buds with local spices, achards and pickles, flavoured tea (vanilla, mint, elaiti and lemon), freshly ground coffee, vanilla sticks and why not some local blue marlin fish!

Some interesting stops

For those of you who appreciate the delicate art of ship models, many of our craftsmen have specialised in replicating historical ships to give you a piece of our maritime history.

The textile museum in Floréal traces the history and contribution that our manufacturing industry has had in our economy.

And for you Ladies, prepare to be dazzled at our diamond factory, where you can marvel at the dexterity of our local designers and jewellers in bringing life into diamonds and other precious stones.
