whynotnow Posted November 2, 2007 #1 Share Posted November 2, 2007 We will be flying into San Diego and staying at the Best Western Bayside Inn for 2 nights before our Dawn Princess cruise in January. Where in that area can we purchase wine? We want to take the wine aboard our cruise. Also, some years ago I shopped at a store called Tropical Nights Boutique, it was in Pacific Beach. It was a great shop. Does anyone know if it is still there? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisakmoser Posted November 2, 2007 #2 Share Posted November 2, 2007 You should check out the World Market downtown for some fun, cheap wines. I love that place. OR you can just do the Rite-Aid across the street! :) Cheap liquor there! I live about 2 blocks away so let me know if you have any questions! We just got back from the Carnival Elation on Monday- I'm so jealous! San DIego's a breeze to go in/out of the port. :p Have a great cruise!

Splinter Posted November 2, 2007 #3 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Will you have a car? You are not too far from the Trader Joe's in the Liberty Station complex just west of the airport. Cost Plus World Market in the Gaslamp is also good. You can also try Ralph's supermarket on 1st and Market. In addition, there are these higher priced options: The Wine Bank 363 5th Ave # 100 (619) 234-7487 San Diego Wine & Culinary Center 200 Harbor Dr (619) 231-6400 Bacchus Wine Market 647 G St (619) 236-0005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whynotnow Posted November 2, 2007 Author #4 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Thank you both, Splinter and Lisa for your great responses! Sounds like some great options for wine purchases. I'm going to get a San Diego downtown map so I'll know how to get to the stores you both referenced. We'll be walking and taking the trolley to get around as we are not renting a car. We don't have Trader Joe's here but I'm very familiar with them from our trips to Phoenix. We do have World Market and between those two places, I'm sure we'll find wines to enjoy, although we may check out the individual wine shops for some different and interesting wines. We sailed out of San Diego 3 years ago so we're somewhat familiar with the terminal. It is a very easy place to get around; not at all congested like Florida ports. We are looking forward to our time in San Diego and our cruise. Thank you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ontario Cruiser Posted November 3, 2007 #5 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Lisakmoser, We are flying in to San Diego from Toronto on Thursday (Summit Hawaii Friday) Just wondering if the Canadian Club is cheaper than at our airport which is about $15cdn? Thanks Ontario Cruiser:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
