3.5 Stopped at Ron Jon Surf Shop looking for sunglasses. Mine were all scratched up and I needed a new pair. I found two pairs for $30 each. It's always hard for me to find the right pair of sunglasses and I found them right away. This place has a large interior with all kinds of stuff to buy. It has the typical beach stuff. Trinkets, clothes, sandals and shoes, as well as so much more. If you are looking for a place to browse or buy a souvenir this is a good place to check out.

Hubby found a MAKALA soprano dolphin baby blue Ukulele for us! Yay! :))

LOVE LOVE LOVE Ron Jons surf shop! Many many years ago one summer, when my brother & I were teens, we were in Cocoa Beach, Florida, our mum had a condo there, we discovered Ron Jons there, for the first time, the original location. Anyway, long story short, my brother & I decided to work there for the whole summer & we did, we both got hired. He wanted to check out girls, I wanted bikinis! Tons of bikinis! Lol One of the best summers ever! So, this past summer my hubby & I were hanging on the beach with my brother & his kids & we notice a Ron Jons opened in Pensacola Beach! We were both stoked!!! Yeah!!! :)) We were across the street on the beach daily riding waves, we took my nephews by regularly shopping so they could check out girls, it was just like all times, except now they are the teens LOLOLOLOL They have awesome beach wear, boogie boards, bathing suits & way cool beachy accessories galore... One day hubby & I stopped in together for a big beach hat for him & while we were there we found a new baby blue ukulele! (my old one got stolen) Hubby LOVES his YUGE hat ;) My hubby started looking at YouTube videos how to play the ukulele and he learned how to play it in two days! WOW. All summer we were driving from dads beachhouse to his farm in Alabama to my brothers house to New Orleans, to my other brothers house all the while hubby is riding shotgun playing the crap out of that ukulele like a boss! We have already written two songs: "Mexican cartel, leave'em dead" and "2 gallons of tequila" we are working on an album called "Live at Opal Beach" LOLOLOLOLOL Thank you Ron Jons for always making memorable summers :)) Now, we are currently 2 generations of Ron Jons surf shop lovers. We all love the new location here. It's kinda small but we are all hoping the space will expand in the future & will eventually carry more of the fabulous Ron Jon surf shop inventory! Yay!!! Summer is for making fun memories at the beach & we love that Ron Jons has always been a part of those fun making memories in our family. Right on dude! (Wild Ukulele music playing) Highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful shop with lots of quality items. Everything seemed reasonably priced. I think there is something for everyone. The store is very neat and tidy. The employees are friendly and helpful. The location on the boardwalk is very fitting. Definitely an awesome place to check out.

If you're looking for boards, this location only has a tiny selection. If you're looking for stickers, there's a'plenty.

So I recently went to Pensacola Beach on a four-day vacation with my girlfriend. We stayed in a…read morebeach house rented by a friend and his family. One of the days there we decided we wanted to rent bikes to ride. So I checked my trusty Yelp app and called around. Because of the recent Hurricane Sally and the fact that some of the bridges were out, the only place I found that actually had bikes for rent was The Fun Store. So I reserved three for my myself, my girlfriend and my friend. We showed up to The Fun Store. The employees there were all very friendly (everyone we met in Pensacola seemed to be). They set us up with three bikes. When we went outside to get our bikes, it turned out that my bike had a flat rear tire. I was kind of surprised they didn't check this before giving us the bikes but not too big a deal. I told an employee and he took the bike back to replace the tube on the rear tire. I'm not sure why but it took a long time. Usually, an experienced bike person can change out a bike tire in no time at all. Anyhow, eventually we got the bike back and we took off. We rode for a while and saw some of the beautiful sites along Pensacola Beach. We eventually started back to the shop. At about six miles out from The Fun Store, all of a sudden it got much harder to pedal. I initially attributed this to the wind. At about four miles out from The Fun Store my friend informed me that my back tire seemed to be going flat. Sure enough it was. I was able to pedal a little further but, after not too much more time, the tire was completely flat and I was just riding on the rim. I got off the bike and had the pleasure of pushing it several miles back to the shop. When I got to the shop and told them what had happened, they were sorry but never offered any sort of refund, credit or anything else. Let's recap. The tire was flat when I got the bike. They took it for quite a while and supposedly changed the tube. Then about three miles out the back tire went flat again and I had to walk the bike the remaining distance to the shop. Despite that they didn't offer any refund at all. As nice as they were at The Fun Store, I can't give them more than a two star review. It's unfortunate because their employees really were all friendly. I would not use them again unless I really wanted to rent a bike and there were no other options.

If you ever get the chance to do so and are able, rent a bike, and ride into the park. You still…read morehave to pay to get in, but it's totally worth it. Such a gorgeous ride, it was about 19 miles RT from Pensacola Beach. I recommend you bring spf wear and lotion, an spf hat, some trail mix or something to snack on, and definitely some bottled water. We brought the spf wear and the hat, but nothing else and were fools. Oh yeah, and in case you did not know like me, the tops of your hands will burn, so be sure to cover or lotion those as well. Duh! If you need to rent a bike like we did, rent from The Fun Store, easy peasy friendly and affordable. Also, if you plan to make a day of it, bring your beach stuff too, plenty of gorgeous shore to park yourself on. If you have no accessories, The Fun Store has everything you need. Things to know about the fort, there are bathrooms, some water fountains, a ferry in season, bike racks, a fishing pier, a book store. The lady that works the book store does take a lunch, so she may step out mid day for a break. Also, this is the most important tip, the book store does carry sun tan lotion, and had just added a bottled water machine - hallelujah! That was my saving grace and thank you again to the nice lady working the book store that saved me. As for the fort itself, if you like forts, or civil war history, then you will be right at home.

LOVE LOVE LOVE coolest surf shop EVER…read more The best selection of surf boards & paddle boards I have found up to date. So many girlie ones ohmygosh. Funday awesomesauce. Also, their clothing & accessories for men & women are off the charts fab. I finally found slides I LOVE here & so did hubby! We both LOVE shoes & I finally found a new pair of slides here that rock. Gonna bounce Aloha now. Hubby found a solid pair of leather Hawaiian Olukai flip flops $80 to $120 a pair, last pair in his size he is riding a thrill wave. Smiles all the way dude. They also have this super awesome section in the back of the store of cool antique second hand surf shack style home goodies, bamboo, hand woven wool beachy blankets & macrame, dishes, coffee cups etc., great vintage surf style gift stuff all situated around a couple bamboo couches in a vintage Hawaiian surf style "hang 10" hang out area where you can chill. Way cool dude. Can't wait to return. Catch you on the flip side. Highly highly recommend. Queen of Pirate'cola approved.

We visited with the intent on buying a skateboard. Staff didn't even attempt to assist and when we…read moreasked- told us we couldn't stand on the board for fit. They seemed less than excited to be in the shop, and we were the only people there. The shop had lots of good inventory and cute things- but the staff ruined for us. We ended up at another local skate shop and had the best experience!!! (See other reviews)
