We are sailing out of San Diego in January for 60 days. Is there a market near the port? We want to get some wine a case and some bottle water for the cruise.. PLEASE SOME SUGGESTIONS. We will be taking a cab from the airport to the cruise port. Thank you..................

The closest is the RiteAid drug store on Ash and Kettner about 3 blocks from the pier, but you will find a very limited selection of wine there. If you are taking a cab, you might want to have them take a little side trip, or check in at the pier (it is less than 3 miles southeast from the airport) and then take another cab to pick up some wine and water. Other options include:

 

Ralph's supermarket: 101 G Street, San Diego, CA‎ - (619) 595-1581‎. Open 24 hours, about 12 blocks from the pier.

 

Bacchus Wine Market (not far from Ralph's):‎647 G Street, San Diego, CA 92101-7028 - (619) 236-0005

 

The Wine Bank: 363 5th Avenue, San Diego, CA 92101-6965 - (619) 234-7487

 

Cost Plus World Market: 372 4th Avenue, San Diego, CA‎ - (619) 236-1737‎ About 12 blocks from the pier. Close to the San Diego Trolley (first Convention Center stop) which is two blocks from the pier.

 

San Diego Wine and Culinary Center: (also near the second Convention Center Trolley stop): 200 Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA 92101-7049 - (619) 231-6400

 

Wine Steals (East Village location): 793 and 795 J Street San Diego, CA 92101 - (619) 255 7452

 

57 Degrees (a new wine shop): 1735 Hancock Street San Diego, CA 92101-7308 - (619) 234-5757. About a mile from the pier. 1/2 block from the Washington Street Trolley Station.

 

Trader Joe's at Liberty Station (WEST of the airport): 2401 Truxtun Road, San Diego, CA 92106-6149 - (619) 758-9272

 

Wine Steals (at Liberty Station): 2970 Truxtun Road, San Diego, CA 92106-6115 - (619) 221-1959

 

Other than Trader Joe's most of the wine places do not sell water, and even Trader Joe's does not have sodas.

Wow, that is great. We have decieded that one of us will take the cases to the pier and the other will take a taxi to the supermarket and nearby wine store. Again thanks.....................................

Of all of those stores, I like Ralph's the best and it is not far. Are you sure that your ship allows you to bring on wine?
