SMKK22 Posted June 5, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Hi, Does anyone know if there is a liquor store near the Jacksonville port? I would love to pick up a bottle of wine before I get on the Celebration. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lounger453 Posted June 5, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 5, 2007 There is a giant liquor store in Jacksonville, but it is not super close to the port. Maybe 20 minutes from the port. It is called "Total Wine". It is like the Sam's club of liquor, beer, and wine! It is very easy to get to from the port. You would take stateroad 9A south from the port all the way to the exit for the University of North Florida and St. Johns Towne Center. Take a right off that exit towards the Towne Center. There will be a traffic light for St. John's Bluff; go through that light. Pass through one more stoplight; there will be a Publix on the left in a shopping center along with Total Wine. Good Luck. I'm sure you can find it online and get more exact directions! The place is paradise! Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okbowler Posted June 5, 2007 #3 Share Posted June 5, 2007 For directions to Jax Total Wine store, go to www.totalwine.com and click on FL. then Jax. It gives directions from any approach. Also lists inventory and prices. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMKK22 Posted June 5, 2007 Author #4 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Thank you so much for the great info. . .I wish I had one of those super stores near to me! But I was hoping there was something closer because we are flying and therefore we will not have a car. Is there something close to the airport by chance? I don't need to get the best bottle of wine or champagne, just something (hopefully bubbly) to drink as we sail away. I figure if Carnival allows me to bring a bottle, I should take advantage of that kindness. Thank you so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okbowler Posted June 5, 2007 #5 Share Posted June 5, 2007 If you are taking a cab from airport to port, many grocery stores and drug stores sell wine. Your cab driver would stop while you made a purchase. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Traveling Fools Posted June 7, 2007 #6 Share Posted June 7, 2007 There is a new, large shopping center just east of the airport and on the way to the port. It has either a Super Walmart or Publix or both. You can buy wine there 7 days a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
