Shopping

When you shop the Coastside, you enjoy an enchanting, small-town setting brimming with unique independent shops. From chic contemporary boutiques to a delightful 100-year-old farm supply emporium with live bunnies, you’ll enjoy a wide variety of locally-owned stores.

Half Moon Bay’s historic downtown, the waterfront hamlet of Princeton-by-the-Sea, and the rural town of Pescadero each offer a walkable thoroughfare chock-a-block with charming storefronts. Browse locally produced coastal decor and rustic furnishings at a home goods shop, boost your kitchen cred with striking hand-crafted La Chamba cookware from a specialty kitchenware store, and treat the kids to a marine-themed store that is one part gift shop, one part cabinet of curiosities. And before heading to the beach for a waterfront picnic, fill your basket with yummy edibles from a charming general store and wine and cheese shop.

Don’t forget the flowers and foliage that made us famous! Throughout the Coastside, you’ll find a variety of nurseries where you can purchase beautiful, locally grown plants and flowers at affordable prices. Want to sneak into wholesale nurseries that don’t normally sell to the public? Join us on our annual Farm + Fish + Flowers event!
