Wow! Such a cute…read moreshop! We were told it's only been open in this spot since April but it was loaded with cute surf, swim and other items. Friendly staff inside greeted us and we were left to browse the end of season sales - tons of great name brand items were on sale in the back by the women's bikinis and swim. Def, worth a stop in if you're a local or visiting the beach and need some swim or surf essentials!

Absolutely terrible customer service. I ordered a pair of sunglasses. They come in two sizes. When…read moreI received them I realized that they were too big. I emailed customer support and they said they would be happy to send me the smaller size once they received the larger glasses. I sent back the larger glasses and they were delivered 8 days ago now. No response from the shop or customer support. I've emailed them multiple times, called multiple times, and left a voicemail. I don't understand how it takes 8 days to do this. I also am failing to understand how a shop has this poor of customer support. Not responding to emails or calls for 8 days is absurd. Extremely unprofessional.

This place has evolved from a pioneer in the early surfing movement to one of the leading surf inspired clothing and accessories shops in the region with 7 locations (5 in Virginia and 2 in North Carolina.) The staff is young, hip and knowledgeable about the products that they offer. If you are looking for great quality clothing that will stand the test of time, stop by 17th Street Surf Shop. You will be happy that you did and you can rest assured that you are supporting local business!!!

My three children wanted to take skateboarding lessons. We decided to try Coastal Edge and had an…read moreincredible experience at the camp and with our skateboard shopping experience (but it was much more than that). I want to comment about the skate camp first. My kids ended up taking a the week long camp with John Fudala. John and Denise were amazing with them (ages 9,9,6). The kids learned an so many tricks and techniques - I couldn't believe how much and how quickly they learned. Their confidence levels increased every day, and they had an absolute blast. The kids have repeatedly told me that this was one of the best camps they've ever been a part of, and they done many different types of camps during their young lives. John and Denise made it so much fun (costumes, music, pizza, and a mellow environment). As a parent, I really appreciated listening to the life lessons they were teaching the kids about perseverance, practice, and hard work while they taught them how to skate safely. I highly recommend it and hope to come back in August once they've had a chance to practice :) Now, I want to comment about the store experience. My daughter fell in love with skateboarding, so I decided to get her a better board than she had. John and the staff at the store helped us pick out the right board for her. Having been in customer-facing positions my entire life, I am not easily impressed, but I was blown away by Tanner who works at Coastal Edge. She was amazing. She went ridiculously far above and beyond. The backstory is that my daughter had seen the right size, type, and color (pink) the day before, but it had sold by the time we decided to buy it the next day. She saw my daughter - who that day was the only girl at the camp - and wanted her to fall in love with the sport. So, she took my mobile number so i could go to work. Within an hour, she had called every single Coastal Edge location multiple times looking for the right board. She found one, but it wasn't pink. My daughter could have lived with a masculine board, but Tanner saw her in all pink pads, shoes, shorts, etc. and decided that she was going to get my daughter a pink board no matter what. Tanner talked to a friend of hers, Jenah (also another stellar employee), and they offered to take the board home that night, sand it, and paint it pink (with my daughter's favorite things: unicorns, rainbows, flowers) out of sheer kindness. They asked for Isabella's input on the design (I sent them a drawing she had made). They took it and made something really special. The brought it to Isabella on day 2 of her camp. Jenah wasn't working at that location, but came any way to give the board directly to izzy and to watch her take her maiden voyage on it. When I asked about payment, they only asked for some chocolate chip cookies. There is so much to be negative about in the world, but these young women have me hopeful about the future. They made a massive impact on my daughter and a huge impression on me. I will encourage my daughter to pay it forward someday when she's a little older. I never write review either, but this was the very least I felt I should do for what was an amazing week. Any company is only as good as its people, and Coastal Edge has amazing employees. THANK YOU for an amazing camp and life experience this week!

I am not a yelper but had to come and leave a review for WRV. I had a quality issue with a large…read morepurchase that was not going away. After a couple of emails things got lost in the shuffle. I was really disappointed and decided to call the HQ in VA Beach. I was put in touch with Jen the director of their surfboard department and my experience was completely turned around. Jen was professional, listened to my plight and went above and beyond to make things right. She put me in touch with Chris the manager in the obx shop and he carried the torch to the finish line. While speaking to Jen I discovered that they try to use American made products and materials as often as possible. That they really care about their employees and have a deep bench of experienced people that have been with them for many years. WRV is a large company and after the email shuffle I was sure that I wasn't important enough for my problems to be addressed. Jen completely proved me wrong and made me feel that not only was I important as a customer but everyone that works for them and the community around our beaches and in the lineup are number one when it comes to their business. WRV has made a believer out of me when it comes to great people and a solid business model. I will be a lifelong customer after this experience.
