Under The Sea

I really enjoyed shopping at this little place. My boyfriend and I stayed in Avilia Beach for a mini vacation. I love buying little things for the house and as gifts to remind me of my trips. I thought this place was perfect for that. I bought a glass candle holder and cute little ring dishes as gifts. My boyfriend found a jewelry box for his sister since her birthday is coming up.
They had a huge variety of things and every price range. Jewelry, art, garden, kids, clothing, cards etc. I would recommend this place for high end souvenir shopping for things that don’t have Avila Beach stamped all over it.
Customer service is a little lacking. It seems they have had problems with theft cause there are cameras everywhere and they really check your money. The counter girl refused to take a little old ladies $ 20 and called it a fake. Maybe it was or wasn’t but I’m sure the lady didn’t do it on purpose. The girl said the owner docks her pay if there are counterfeit $ 20s. So obviously some paranoia. I don’t blame her, probably the owner is crazy. Lol. They do take credit cards… With proper ID. Lol

Having just moved into town, I decided to stop by some of the shops and see what was down here. I came with my Mom and I actually thought the shop was really cute. It is a mixture of cute unique items, clothing, kids items, knick knacks, garden items etc.
The thing that turned me off was the girl behind the counter didn’t even acknowledge my mom and I. In fact, she pretty much walked right passed us without even looking up. Very rude.

This store is great. I visited it’s sister store in Morro Bay. This store is a lot less crowed.

This store, located on the strip of businesses along Avila Beach, sells pretty & delicate things. You know what I’m talking about: glass whales and dolphins, cute things for your home garden, and fairies… lots and lots of fairies. If you or anyone you know collects fairy sculptures or anything related to fairies, this is the place to go.
