I stopped by for an inexpensive cooler to carry some seafood home. They had the perfect cooler for only $5. The clerk was helpful and friendly. I looked at the surf supplies and another clerk immediately asked if I needed assistance. The fishing gear is unbelievable. And kayaks, they carry everything. I could have spent all day in there. They rent surf boards, paddle boards, bikes and sell fishing licenses and can even set up fishing charters. They are locally owned. They offer free parking. I'll be back on my next visit to Surf City.

If i were in San Diego or pulling into Haleiwa it's understandable...but Surf City? North Carolina? I was near insanity, but too close to the shop to turn around. With the infuriating anger building I decided they had one chance to get my business. And it was slim. And what happened? Great, comfortable, friendly customer service. No pressure sales. Two days later and I'm back ordering a board from them. It's a nice little shop with pretty much everything you would need. Be sure to check out the consignment section...saw a cosmetically beat but great condition Hawaii Pro Designs longboard sitting in the back, in addition to a variety of short boards in varying conditions with varying prices. George is awesome. Send him your business. I've stopped into most other "shops" in the area and been brushed off, leaving me feeling like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman (minus the prostitution). Lesson to other shops in the area...don't judge a book by its cover - you just missed out on $2k in sales this time around (not to mention future business), as I'll never go back to your establishments.

After striking out Tsunami Surf Shop came to mind. Although I'm not a tourist to this area the shop was the perfect location for the purchase I wanted to make. This shop had dozens of postcards to choose from that had current pictures of the area. The price was more than reasonable so I bought some extra cards while I was there. Being that it was not the main tourist season there were no crowds to deal with. To be perfectly honest I was a little surprised they were open in December. I had always thought it closed down during the winter months Thanks for having just what I was looking for. 2023/ #4

Not sure if it's even there anymore, but my brother and I took advantage of it for sure during some nights when our parents dropped us off and went shopping. They probably have the best selection on the island and have an awesome selection of surf and body board leashes. The only problem was the past time I went I wanted a wetsuit, but they were all sold out and hadn't ordered new stock with it being mid April. Understandable, but I was bummed that I couldn't give them my business.
