I was blown away by East Coast Sports. I didn't have high expectations by a sporting goods store on…read morea resort island, but they carried everything imaginable for local recreational needs and prices were reasonable. 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.

This is an incredible find in Surf City…read more The amount of gear they have for fishing is beyond belief. Fishing is big business but in this area and this is a store to go to. I am a novice and was asking some questions about what would work and what is running and what type of equipment would I need to begin a new hobby, on the bays, shore fishing and maybe someday kayak fishing. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable and I was impressed with the entirety of the store. They also have a large selection of clothing and hats upstairs. Good prices good time.

We were looking for a local beach chair rental company that was reasonably priced, close to our rental condo, & one where we could pick up the chairs (all the other places I shopped had strict delivery time windows.) Drop In Surf was exactly what we needed. Staff was friendly & helpful!

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
