Bluewater Food Mart & Vape Shop

Bluewater Food Mart & Vape Shop is one of those Niceville spots that folks talk about like it's a second home. Part convenience store, part vape shop, and a real anchor for the boating crowd around here, it's earned a reputation as one of the most beloved stops in town. People come for the vapes and stay for the welcome. On the vape side, they keep a solid selection of disposables, e-liquid and vape juice, plus the smoking accessories to round things out.

One regular who's been coming for over a year said they've got it all, a nice selection of vapes and plenty of energy drinks for the morning stop before class or work. Since they stay open late, plenty of locals swing by after their shift knowing the doors are still open. Ask anyone in Niceville and the first thing they mention is the people. Wayne comes up again and again as friendly and genuinely helpful, the kind of guy who'll special-order what you need.

Don gets the same love, with one regular joking he's half convinced Don works there twenty-four hours a day, always with a good attitude and a knack for anticipating what you came in for. Sandi, said to be one of the owners, keeps things running from behind the register with an easy vibe, and Shiv rounds out a crew that people say makes their day every time. As one person put it, even the newest hires are among the kindest people on the planet. There's more here than the vape counter too.

Boaters swear by the easy drive-in, drive-out access, non-ethanol gasoline, and morning ice runs, and there's a laundromat and U-Haul rental on site for good measure. Fair prices and good value are part of the draw, but it's the warmth that keeps this place full. One regular summed it up nicely: sometimes they stop in just to buy something small and say hi to everyone working.
