    What a great store! I love this place and stop here every time we come to Port St. Joe. So many great things. And love the t-shirts for souvenirs.

    Avoid like the plague! Consumer alert! Tourist trap of the worst kind. My father in law bought a $45 snorkel set from them. Granted we didn't expect a lot but we did expect it to work. We also chose this place thinking it would be higher quality vs Walmart. Anyway, made the purchase and went straight to the beach and it didn't work at all. Thank goodness my granddaughter didn't use it. Essentially defective from the manufacturer. He went back to return it for a new one and the employee, immediately started arguing with him, citing the small print on the receipt. Sure everyone reads the small print at a place like this. In short, they don't accept returns on any merchandise that has a manufactures warranty or a several other reasons. The clerk proceeded to show him the fine print on the receipt. (See photo) Seriously, you buy this overpriced crap and it doesn't work& you won't al least replace it that's just wrong. Fortunately, my father in law through enough of a fit the guy (other customers were watching) finally told him to get another and leave. I get it - this is a tourist trap but so far our experience here has been terrible. This place is barely functioning and they're not the least bit thankful. I won't come back.

    but this is much more than simply a bait and tackle shop ...

    The store's inventory is slim... lots of empty spots on shelves. The crew there is very friendly &…read morehelpful, but they can't sell something they don't have. The online store has great inventory & good prices, but they should be ashamed of their customer service. Real people are not available (only the chatbot). The chatbot can connect you to a real person (via chat only) but the real people don't work weekends, and they only "open a ticket" for your issue. Nobody ever got back to me about the ticket I opened. I was ignored. I placed an order online of around $5k, and a significant portion of that order arrived incorrect - missing parts where it says the part was delivered - double counting/delivery (& double charging) of other items - item descriptions that are misleading (chairs that claim to ship with mounting hardware but arrive with nothing). The online store also made a big mistake with my bank causing about $1900.00 of my money to be held by W.M. for 6 days after the order was cancelled. If I had a good alternative to W.M. with as large an inventory, I would not use W.M. at all. But I don't have another good option that I know of (yet), so I'm stuck with W.M. for now. I guess they know that, and that's probably why they don't care about good customer service.

    As a life-long boater, I've patronized several West Marine locations from coast to coast over the…read morepast 30+ years. The offerings and pricing are all pretty consistent, but some stores excel in the critical areas of cleanliness and customer service. After shopping the Panama City store several times over the past half dozen years or so, I'm confident that this one is above average for the chain. The store is always clean and well merchandised. The staff are visible, knowledgeable and most importantly, helpful. If you're a boater, you'll eventually need something from West Marine. They've got it all, from boat and trailer parts, electronics, safety gear, cleaning supplies, fishing gear, shoes and apparel, etc. I wish the prices were a bit more competitive, but that's boating!
