    Beautiful little boutique with nicely curated merchandise from clothing, jewelry, to home goods. Layout of the store is elegant and relaxing. Most of the items are neutral colors and casual styles, befitting to the locale. Most of the items were about $60-80 each. Whether that's reasonable or not is a subjective question. To me, it's about the price of one hour of shrink talk to it's well worth it! ; ) Definitely a great place to check out for tourists as you won't find one of these in every mall.

    One of those lovely boutiques that you only find at no less lovely places like the area called La Playa in Point Loma. I like small stores like this one and even more when they don't try to rip you off but just make a decent living. Prices were very affordable. Many pieces were made in Italy and you can touch by the tact the excellent quality. Pretty hats, scarves of all colors and unique outfits, for beach bums or party goers. My girlfriends and I were looking for some white dresses for a Diner in Blanc party and even though the lady who runs the place had wonderful outfits, we couldn't find our size or style. Still, we were able to try all we wanted, ask questions, and not being pressed at all to buy if we didn't find what we were looking for. Lots of pretty jewelry too. A true atemporal boutique.

    "Needed to get a couple candles and there were SOOO many to choose from. The girl was super friendly and helped me pick them out. My wife loves it. I'll definitely be back."

    I happened upon this cute little shop after the farmer's market one day. The owner was very welcoming and the store is full of great gift ideas and clothing. There are orchids and great succulent arrangements, as well as picture frames, handmade jewelry, luscious soaps, candles, quaint tea cups, stationery, hats, purses, scarves, and clothes. Everything is reasonably priced. I'll definitely be back!

    Romper from Rare Bloom, they usually carry some cute ones during summer

    Overview: great class, terrible traffic and parking, but worth it!…read more ---- Located in Ocean Beach so traffic getting them is crazy and parking is toughhh, especially on fridays, and the weekend. Make sure you give yourself enough time when planning on getting therWe found some street parking a couple blocks away and walked. Our instructor, Aurora, did a quick demo and then we were left to create our pieces. We had 3 balls of clay (give or take a half pound each ball) to work with and you get one free piece firing included with the class, and additional pieces to fire are $10 each. It's pretty autonomous but if you need help the instructor is there to assist you. After you create your pieces, you pick a glaze and then clean up the work station. The class is 90 minutes and it goes by quick, time flies when you're having fun!! ---- Overall: had a fantastic time creating pieces that will hopefully be functional ware, a great date idea, I can't wait to be back and try out their open studio times

    Loved our recent visit to Botanica in Ocean Beach! At first glance, it looks like an adorable plant…read moreshop, but they also host ceramic wheel-throwing classes, which my boyfriend and I decided to try--and I'm so glad we did. Our class was on a really nice day, and for a super reasonable price, we got 1.5 hours on the wheel, which felt like the perfect amount of time. The wheel throwing class is either indoors (behind the plant shop) or in the back (half exposed garage). We were in the back and it was a good amount of space for our group of 4 people. There were more couples next to us as well. Also, I loved that they allow you to bring outside drinks to enjoy while creating, making it a fun and relaxed experience. Our instructor was great--attentive when needed but also gave space to explore at your own pace. This wasn't our friend time on the wheel, but we were with friends who were new to wheel-throwing, so he assisted when needed. I can't wait to see our finished ceramic pieces! Whether you're a plant lover, an aspiring ceramicist, or just looking for a unique experience, Botanica is definitely worth checking out. After your session, it's a good excuse to explore the streets of OB - especially on a very sunny day. I'll definitely come back another time.
