Vape shops recommendations in San Diego

[carrielsal]

I'm in San Diego on business for a couple days, and I'd like to try some new eliquids. Are there any vape shops in this area that carry an extensive line of eliquids and/or high end devices?

I use the vendor list here and also use yelp with keyword vapor. There is a few vape map apps on iPhone and android too.

Thanks! I was hoping someone could give me some recommendations based on personal experience

I've only tried two, personally, but I'll throw in a couple of others that are on my radar. There are a lot of shops here, so it also depends on where in San Diego you'll be.

The two I've visited:
Vapure (Vapure Premium U.S.A Made E-Liquid, Electronic Cigarettes & Accessories) has 6 locations. I've been to the Kearny Mesa location.
This was my intro to vaping (beyond the Blu disposable that I tried). They have decent prices and their own line of liquid with 50 or so flavors--some of them pretty good. The Kearny Mesa store is quite business like--not hipsterish--although the people who work there are fun and friendly. Vapure Kearny Mesa - Kearny Mesa - San Diego, CA | Yelp

Vape Aura (Vape Aura | The very best in e-liquids, devices, and accessories.)
This is a single shop that is in a strange strip mall off the main street (so it can be a little difficult to find). The guys hear seem to know their mechs (I've not ventured in that realm, so cannot comment) and do a lot of building. They also have their own line of juice that has some really good ones (I particularly like Papabewi, a papaya-lychee flavor). The vibe is a little hipsterish, but the guys are friendly and are willing to talk, show you anything they have, even teach you how to build coils if you ask them.

A few others:
TheSwitch The Switch SD Vape Shop - Kearny Mesa - San Diego, CA | Yelp
VapeCity Vapecity Miramar - San Diego, CA | Yelp
Vaperoo Vaperoo Premium Vape Shop - San Diego, CA | Yelp
TrendyVape Trendy Vape - San Diego, CA | Yelp

Also, not too far away, is Sun-Vapers (Electronic cigarettes in San Diego County with next day delivery.). Sun Vapers - Santee - Santee, CA | Yelp

Hope that gets you started!

Vapor Bombz - Oceanside (not too far from San Diego, just a couple of miles north)

Thanks! I'm staying at the Sheraton Mission Bay and working about 10 miles north of here. I don't have time to drive too far.
I'll need to look some of these up. I was hoping to find a shop that contained a large variety of higher end eLiquids to try that aren't available to sample at my local vape shops which mainly carry starter kits, a few VV mods and clearos, so I end up having to order online.

Then I would highly suggest Vapor Bombz. It's about 30 minutes from Sheraton, but since you're halfway up there already, might as well take another 15 minute drive north to get there. It's an easy find: just take the 5 North exit Oceanside Blvd, turn left, and it will be about half a mile on your left side. It's in the Alberto's Mexican Food plaza. From personal experience, they have lots of higher-end/premium juice to try.

Thanks. I'll have to check out their hours. I may get some free time tomorrow.

I usually go to vapin 619 in santee. Just be wary because one of the people that works there is always in drugs and gets distracted easily. But they have good specials. 45 mils for $25 or if you call ahead with your order 30mils for 18. And the juice is amazing

I'll have to check out the Santee scene one of these days. I've been planning to hit Sun-Vapers, but I'll add Vapin619 to my list. Just gotta make it out there on some day that isn't so hot...
