Coronado Shopping: Everything Under the Sun
Located a bridge away from downtown San Diego, Coronado offers unique shopping opportunities throughout the island, from the bustling bayfront Coronado Ferry Landing with its colorful outdoor shopping complex to the oceanfront Hotel del Coronado with its fashionable boutiques and specialty shops. Shoppers can also delight in the "Crown City's" charming, mile-long Orange Avenue, lined with dozens of inviting stores, one-of-a-kind boutiques, art galleries and sidewalk cafes. . Following are a few of Coronado's most popular retail areas for shopping enthusiasts to explore, enjoy and find one-of-a kind mementos from their visit to the "Enchanted Island."
. STROLL AND SHOP
- The Coronado Ferry Landing, located along picturesque San Diego Bay, is a lively outdoor retail and entertainment complex featuring waterfront dining and distinctive shops surrounded by tree-lined walkways, sparkling ponds and waterfalls, swaying palms and spectacular views of the San Diego-Coronado Bridge and the downtown San Diego skyline. Shoppers can stroll through more than 20 stores selling everything from novelty gifts and memorabilia to seashells, art, fine jewelry, women's clothing and shoes, men's sportswear and more. Ample, off-street parking is available. . After a day of shopping, guests can grab a quick bite to eat at one of the Ferry Landing's casual eateries or enjoy a relaxing meal of fine dining along the waterfront at Peohe's (seafood), Candelas on the Bay (French/Mexican fusion) or Il Fornaio (Italian). .
- Coronado's historically preserved, downtown commercial district is called "The Village" by locals and offers a diverse collection of over 100 specialty shops and businesses, many independently- or family-owned. Shoppers can browse through bookstores, designer apparel boutiques, surf shops, home and garden/flower shops, gourmet food and wine shops, jewelry stores, art galleries, candy and ice cream shops, pet boutiques and more. .
- Orange Avenue, Coronado's charming main street, was recognized with the Great American Main Street Award for its "vibrant, diverse…downtown" and originally named after the numerous orange trees that were once planted down its median. The avenue is especially appealing to shoppers with its wide pedestrian-friendly sidewalks, inviting patios and eye-catching storefront facades and window displays.
