    3.5 Stopped at Ron Jon Surf Shop looking for sunglasses. Mine were all scratched up and I needed a new pair. I found two pairs for $30 each. It's always hard for me to find the right pair of sunglasses and I found them right away. This place has a large interior with all kinds of stuff to buy. It has the typical beach stuff. Trinkets, clothes, sandals and shoes, as well as so much more. If you are looking for a place to browse or buy a souvenir this is a good place to check out.

    Hubby found a MAKALA soprano dolphin baby blue Ukulele for us! Yay! :))

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Ron Jons surf shop! Many many years ago one summer, when my brother & I were teens, we were in Cocoa Beach, Florida, our mum had a condo there, we discovered Ron Jons there, for the first time, the original location. Anyway, long story short, my brother & I decided to work there for the whole summer & we did, we both got hired. He wanted to check out girls, I wanted bikinis! Tons of bikinis! Lol One of the best summers ever! So, this past summer my hubby & I were hanging on the beach with my brother & his kids & we notice a Ron Jons opened in Pensacola Beach! We were both stoked!!! Yeah!!! :)) We were across the street on the beach daily riding waves, we took my nephews by regularly shopping so they could check out girls, it was just like all times, except now they are the teens LOLOLOLOL They have awesome beach wear, boogie boards, bathing suits & way cool beachy accessories galore... One day hubby & I stopped in together for a big beach hat for him & while we were there we found a new baby blue ukulele! (my old one got stolen) Hubby LOVES his YUGE hat ;) My hubby started looking at YouTube videos how to play the ukulele and he learned how to play it in two days! WOW. All summer we were driving from dads beachhouse to his farm in Alabama to my brothers house to New Orleans, to my other brothers house all the while hubby is riding shotgun playing the crap out of that ukulele like a boss! We have already written two songs: "Mexican cartel, leave'em dead" and "2 gallons of tequila" we are working on an album called "Live at Opal Beach" LOLOLOLOLOL Thank you Ron Jons for always making memorable summers :)) Now, we are currently 2 generations of Ron Jons surf shop lovers. We all love the new location here. It's kinda small but we are all hoping the space will expand in the future & will eventually carry more of the fabulous Ron Jon surf shop inventory! Yay!!! Summer is for making fun memories at the beach & we love that Ron Jons has always been a part of those fun making memories in our family. Right on dude! (Wild Ukulele music playing) Highly recommend.

    Absolutely beautiful shop with lots of quality items. Everything seemed reasonably priced. I think there is something for everyone. The store is very neat and tidy. The employees are friendly and helpful. The location on the boardwalk is very fitting. Definitely an awesome place to check out.

    If you're looking for boards, this location only has a tiny selection. If you're looking for stickers, there's a'plenty.

    As others have said this is a great shop filled with so many beachy things and staffed with…read morewonderful and helpful employees - we stopped in to grab a souvenir more specifically a refrigerator magnet for our RV just a small memento documenting our trip. with so much inventory it was impossible not to walk the entire store, there were lots of families here who were likely on vacation stocking up on beach wear and and toys for the little ones, but there's plenty of things for mom and dad too. I don't remember seeing more quality items in this type of shop in a long time I guess it's name "department store" really separates it from so many beach stores scattered along the coast. It was a difficult choice but we finally decided on a piece that we both liked. This is a shop that is a must visit if you're in the area, even if you're not shopping for a specific item you'll probably find something that you must have, it's a great place to find gifts, beach or everyday wear or something simple to remind you of your time in the area...

    Signs are extremely confusing. They lead you to believe prices are one thing and then charge way…read moremore at the checkout. Make sure you read signs very carefully. Most importantly though, when I went to correct what I thought was an error, I approached friendly and was met with extreme unkindness. They treated me like I was stupid and in front of a line of people the man made a remark "sorry about her, everyone" and I left crying. It was just a misunderstanding that I personally felt could have been handled with a warmer disposition. You could probably (hopefully) find nicer people at one of the many other shops.

    Shop at your own risk. With the plethora of souvenir shops in this locality, you would be better…read moreserved going to a larger more popular shop that actually has a degree of customer service. I've called and used their website portal multiple times and it seems there's no one there. Essentially, you buy anything from them, you're stuck with it even if it's defective. In August 2025, bought a beautiful premium long sleeve tshirt. Before giving to my daughter to wear, I washed in on cold delicate with a few minutes in a low heat tumble cycle. The gorgeous lettering just flipped off halfway--it wasn't like a corner here or there--it was most of the letters. It's December. The purchase was made in August. STILL NO RESPONSE. Here the FIFTH email I sent to them and still no response: Hi, I've contacted your store several times, using this email portal and via phone calls and voicemail that have gone unreturned. I'm hoping this time, it will get through to someone who can and will follow through on customer service. I come in every year and buy my daughter something special to remember her family vacation. My family has a condo across the street. We've been coming in since the days Ilan and his college age daughter were running the shop. We've been loyal customers. This summer, I bought my daughter an Existing Kids Tshirt in pink with a lovely PK and turtle logo. I washed it on cold delicate partial tumble dry low before she wore it and the letters were flopping off of the tshirt. I contacted the PK Trading Co using this online portal and left voicemail. No response. Another two times, no response. Months later, I attempted to low heat iron the letters back on and it didn't work. I contacted PKTC again. No response. This tshirt is a nice quality and the right color and it isn't wearable. How frustrating. I have photos I'd like to share with you and sincerely hope that someone does respond and make good on this purchase. I plan to update this review IF I receive ANY response from them. If this review hasn't been updated, it's just because there is STILL NO RESPONSE.

    Very disappointed with Perdido Key Trading Co. / Souvenirs…read more I have been trying to contact for weeks. Cannot talk to anyone about the 6 thousand dollar bill they owe. Lack of communication & professionalism has cause great inconvenience. Beware when doing business with them.
