Not the best West Marine I've visited, but far from the worst. Smaller than many of their stores…read moreI've been into from coast to coast, which means they don't have a vast selection.

This review is for the West Marine store located at 1919 Glynn Ave. Suite 1, Brunswick, GA. Today…read morewas the second time at this store, the first time being about a year ago. Today my husband and our boat mechanic went inside searching for a part. After entering, there was no acknowledgement of them even walking in the store. After making themselves known, a man finally asked what do you want? Really? The more this man talked the more you could tell he really wasn't interested in helping with anything. I noticed the first time I went to this store the customer service was lacking so put it mildly. First visit, I entered looking for boat cabinet parts, spent at least 15 minutes in the store, not one person asked to assist me nor looked my way. All the counter persons, and there were a few, seemed to be too busy sucking up to the white customers at their counter. The customer service at this place is disgusting to say the least and it seems as though this place is racist because the treatment of people of color is not the same as how they treat their white customers, and it definately shows. With all that's going on in this world today, 6/11/20, you would think racists would get the point and give up their current racists states but here is a prime example, still today, that racist people and businesses could care less but in the end...they will also reap what they sow. This is the same town that Ahmaud Arbery, the young black man, murdered while jogging through a predominately white neighborhood is located. This store is pretty pathetic and confirmed after 2 visits. And for the record, people of color own boats as well, try not being jealous and evil and if you can't provide at least good customer service here...get yourself another job not involving the public. I will be spreading the word about this place and warn all our boat friends not to shop here.

No longer are you forced to fish with a jig-head for a soft plastic bait to make a cast. You now have the options to fish unweighted, artificial or live bait at incredible distances from the boat without even any consideration of having to place any weight on the leader. The Thunder Chicken Popping Cork is the BEST fishing bobber/float you will ever buy! It is a necessary advantage of your competitors!

Definitely would recommend starting here first if you are intending to do some serious fishing. They also have several picnic tables with barbecue grills and an outdoor bathroom that is really clean. They also have a beach area if the kids wanna hang out which also seems to serve as additional areas for shore fishing.

They have everything from souvenir Tees and shot glasses, to seashell wind chimes, to anything you need for fishing, to beachy home decor, and even some higher end outdoor supplies (relevant to the campground across the road from Clam Creek). Souvenir items the same as what is sold at Jekyll Market, were 20-30% cheaper at Jekyll Fishing Center. One family member bought some expensive outdoor gear and was very happy with the price. It wasn't anything needed, but the deal was too good to pass. Staff was really friendly and attentive. Vibe in the store is welcoming and unobtrusive. Will be back next trip!
