When recently visiting 30A, my wife and I joined some friends to visit some of the shops and grab a snack along Seacrest Beach. After roaming into a number of fun shops, we realized we probably needed to get some souvenirs for friends and family back at home. That was when we came across the 30A Trading Co. 131 which was a huge store with so much to offer!
At first glance, this store looked like several different stores as they had a number of different entrances. While we saw the items we would expect from magnets to shot glasses to fun toys resembling sea creatures to pool floaties, we were also surprised to see a number of items teasing the political landscape in the United States (not good or bad, but interesting). Those included toys of the president (a duck of Trump called "The Leader of the Pond" and Gulf of America '25 shirts cups, and hats. There were also random items that you could have forgotten on a trip and save yourself a trip to a convenience store. All in all, they really looked like they had everything!
We later learned that this is considered a local surf shop and beach store with apparel and accessories for surfing and the beach along with many gift items. They have everything you need to go swimming. They have shirts, sunglasses, bikinis, bags, backpacks, hoodies, jackets, and activewear. Their accessories include trendy hats, practical bags and backpacks, chic sunglasses, innovative drinkware, and so much more. This store serves the Seacrest community along with nearby Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach, and Inlet Beach. Their hours are 9 AM to 10 PM daily.
If you go to their website (https://surfstyle.com/pages/trading-company-store-131), you can get 20% off an online order. Note that this discount doesn't work in the store, though there are many other promotions in the store. There is free shipping on an order of $70 or more. Also on their website, you can join their e-mail list and learn the story of Surf Style, now considered by some to be the leading beachwear and souvenir shopping destination in the southeast. Some of the in-store promotions included Buy 3, Get 1 Free items (which could be mixed and matched with similar items) and various sales.
We didn't need the service at all except when checking out (easy transactions), but we were impressed by this large store with a little of everything! read more
