About Riverton Fishermens Co

Riverton Fishermens Co is a gift shop at 4 Foreshore Rd, Bluff, Invercargill, rated 4.8 from nine Google reviews. The Foreshore Rd address puts it right by the working port at the bottom of the South Island.

The best gift shops in coastal towns like this trade in a sense of place rather than generic souvenirs: locally made ceramics, woodwork, prints and preserves, with a maker's name you can look up. Regulars know to check for New Zealand-made labels and to ask where stock comes from — a good shopkeeper will happily tell you, and can steer you towards something with a story behind it rather than a shell trinket mass-produced overseas. Browse slowly; the worthwhile pieces are rarely at the front of the shop.

For a memento of Bluff and its fishing and oyster heritage, Riverton Fishermens Co sits on the foreshore where that story unfolds.
