Roanoke Marshes Trading Co

This beachy shop is the perfect stop for everything summery. It teems with selections from apparel to jewelry and gift items. Of note are their dresses – lots of colorful and stylish choices for lightweight, warm weather wear. You can walk out with an entire outfit from hats, jewelry and sandals to the main feature…dress, sportswear, shorts, swimsuit and all kinds of T’s and OBX hoodies.

They offer shell art, tumblers and loads of coastal décor – including prints on canvas -  the kinds of things you want to find in an island souvenir shop including fudge, peanuts and saltwater taffy! The kids will appreciate the stuffed animals. Take home some coastal-themed wall art such as a gecko, seagull or fish.

The prices are just right for all age groups and wallets, too. Sales abound on clothing. There usually is a rack on the porch to shop for bargains. The folks here are very friendly and helpful and will carry clothing to and from the dressing room for you. And they have a good eye for what looks stylish if you are shopping alone and need an opinion.

The entire family will enjoy the stop, and with the varied, fun selections, won’t get bored waiting for the person in the dressing room with scads of outfits! Some hard choices to make here with the pretty and youthful dresses! Ask about extended summer hours.
