Surin may not a notable shopping destination in Phuket, but there are several interesting places if you're in the area. There's an upmarket shopping mall where you can find international brands, as well as nice shophouses with good quality items near the beach itself.
Surin Beach Road has a selection of shops mostly focussing on chic fashion and lifestyle. These include tailors, galleries, souvenir-and-handicraft shops, and women’s clothing boutiques. Hotel-owned boutiques are also worth a visit, especially if you're looking for high-end souvenirs and textiles in Phuket.
