I liked this place, if you're worried about something "not fitting" try-on before you buy! But again, common sense... I genuinely enjoy the two shirts I purchased, my husband likes his tank and my daughter her sweatshirt. The quality was good and the customer service was very friendly!

I did not realize until later in the week that I did not receive it. When I went back to the store tonight to ask for the 25% off I was told that the signs were not until that Monday. When I questioned why the signs were up, she said they were just starting putting them up on Sunday night. She just kept saying okay. Okay every time I question something. I asked her when she started putting the signs up and she said five and I said well I was here at 8:00 and they were all up. And she said no ma'am. Most ignorant arrogant woman I have ever ever met. Obviously does not know what customer service needs. She just kept fighting everything I said. Never apologized nothing. We will never go back to that store

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of boards here! I can't remember the owners name, but he was such fun to chat with and talk surf for a while.

We will be back for sure!

This place also has a wide spanning variety of items. The service is pretty decent, with the staff being kind. That being said, like all tourist gift shops, things aren't cheap.

They have a little of everything, including beach things (chairs, lotions, hats, swimsuits, boogie boards, etc). The beach items are priced pretty high. The clothing is super affordable. There are tee shirts for $12 or a buy two deal. Got a sweatshirt for $26. Super cute pattern. Had to dig through them all as there were many with snags on the front or other marks on it. Quality is not good. However, I knew that going in and don't care if it doesn't last me years on years. Some of the sweatshirts had wet sleeves?? Thinking a leak above??? I mentioned this to an employee I saw near the dressing room. Line was long. Another employee recognized that and opened another register. There is a higher charge of using a card. Cashier didn't interact much at all with us. Overall, great place to grab super cheap - price and quality - shirts/clothing to celebrate your vacay at OKI. Don't go in with high expectations and you will be fine.

I went here having seeing it at the golf cart parade hidden. the outside was almost as worse as inside: very strange people hanging out on the balcony and it was not clean whatsoever. walking in was even worse. it smelled AWFUL in the store itself. the clothing is not great quilaty but I will say the sweatshirts and T shirts are some more reconaziable brands. I got a sweatshirt from the varsity brand which I've paid 40-50 dollars for. I paid 24 for this! the same brand -they didn't bother taking off the og tags but added a red sticker on top showing the price. the sweatshirts were so cute and the T shirts. everything else sucked. it looked like something from the 90s. I brought in a coupon that I had purposely put in the address that was on the coupon and was immediately shut down when I presented it to the cashier. she wasn't very friendly and only said my price and thank you. the 'bag' they gave my for my sweatshirt and a bracelet (which was only 6 dollars and looked just like a bracelet I saw at OIB fishing comp. for like 5 dollars cheaper) was a legit take out bag. I will say , the sweatshirts at OIB fishing company were 40-50 bucks. if you want a cute sweatshirt or if it's too cold splash is a good option. if you want a cute t shirt just go down to OIBFC. it may be more pricey , but , they have much better quality in other items!
