The city of Coronado is known for its sprawling bridge, historical resort, and island location. Locals, however, know Coronado also offers a unique shopping experience along Orange Avenue, located just north of the famous Hotel Del Coronado.
Orange Avenue is lined with many small shops, with boutiques, antiques, and jewelry that are one-of-a-kind and inimitable. As visitors stroll the palm-lined avenue, they'll be surprised to discover shops they've never seen or heard of before -- chain stores are heavily discouraged on Orange Avenue which truly strives to provide shoppers with an unparalleled shopping environment. Ice cream shops and candy stores cater to hungry customers as they explore. A particularly worthwhile stop is the Lamb's Players Theater run by a group that puts on rare plays and musicals,so be sure to purchase tickets for the current production.
Each storefront displays a unique combination of goods, so even window shopping is a satisfying activity. Many visitors choose to take a biking tour of Orange Avenue because of its aesthetic appeal and ocean breezes. Parking is sometimes difficult along the avenue itself, but this allows visitors to take even more time to discover and process the colorful awnings and open doors of the shops that line Orange Avenue.
