Hyatt Place 17th st Conv- nearby shopping

[MrsWhite831]

This is my weirdest CC question ever...

 

We're staying at Hyatt Place 17th St Convention Center this Saturday pre cruise. We have looked ALL OVER our home town (Freezing snowy buffalo) and kind not find water shoes that we need for an excursion. I know we could buy them online but a few in the family wanted to try them on 1st or find them cheap as possible. I know that there is "shopping nearby"- anywhere you think would sell things like water shoes??

Closest to you is Harbor Shops. Short walk. If not there, you will find cheap beach things at the huge CVS at Beach Place. If you need more choice head to Galleria Mall. Easy cab ride.

The Publix grocery store in the Harbor Shops should have water shoes (they have a big section of beach wear, toys, etc.).

You're right. I remember seeing beach toys and stuff there. Not sure as much as that CVS but definitely worth the look.

Walgreens sells them in the summer. Maybe the one near the port would have them year round since it's a touristy area.

I am sure I have seen them there in Publix and it was a winter month. I think there is a Payless shoe store there as well and perhaps they have them.

 

With all the tourists and cruisers, I am pretty certain you will have plenty of options to find them.

I see that the Publix looks pretty close. Are there sidewalks along SE 10th Ave & SE 20th St so one can walk there?
