Get directionsRight on Coronado Avenue
We're about half a mile from the South Bay Drive-In and Swap Meet, so it's easy to stop in before or after the drive-in. There's free parking right out front, and you don't need a meter or a garage.
Drivers coming off I-5 use Exit 4, Coronado Avenue. From Palm Avenue or the Palm City side, stay on surface streets; it's a short trip.
Close to Imperial Beach
Imperial Beach residents are some of our most regular customers. From the pier it's about 2.5 miles inland on Imperial Beach Boulevard, around 7 minutes, and the shop is on the way if you're heading to I-5. That's why so many people know us as the IB smoke shop even though our address says San Diego.
