T-Shirts and Merchandise
Ukulele Sunshine Portugal is working with Mudchutney to make a selection of t-shirts and stickers available to order online.
Official merchandise includes unique designs in unisex and ladies t-shirts, in a range of colours, and a selection of stickers in different sizes.
This design is by artist Sharon dipity, a multi-disciplinary visual artist working across drawing, printmaking and painting, with a passion for Portugal and lighthouses. This lighthouse or farol was drawn in 2025 when coming back on the ferry from Culatra.
We will have some merchandise available for purchase in Olhão. If ordering from Ireland, be aware of additional import duty charges from the UK.
