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!

What you get is a big selection of just about everything you might need for the beach, from attire to sunblock and towels, to gear. The staff were friendly. Parking is ample. The only thing I'd nitpick is that prices were a little high. For example, you can get some of the same sunblock at the nearby supermarket (I think it's a Publix) for a couple of bucks cheaper. So if I could speak to the owners, I'd tell them to have a little more sense about those kinds of prices or risk losing customers. Overall though, it's actually one of the better beach type stores I've been in.

The very first time I went into the store I noticed that not everybody had a mask on. I personally don't care if I have to wear it or not. If someone tells me to wear it, I do, if it's not mandatory, I don't. However, from this experience and my 2nd experience in the store, masks were not required but on the 3rd time, as soon as I walked in I was being yelled at from across the store to put a mask on by an employee. No biggie, but just kind of inconvenient as I've already been in there and it is not consistent but whatever. Went out to my car, put on the mask, and went back inside. As I walked in I was told I cannot be in the store at all (even after I put the mask on). This upset me as I could've went to any other beach store but I came back because of the great experiences I previously had. I'm being nice and putting a 3 star because I just went back and had great service. If an Eagles manager is reading this and is taking one thing out of this, it's to be consistent. Either crack down on people not wearing masks or don't yell at them, you can't be back and forth.

But it is better quality than anything you'll find at Eagles, Wings, or whatever else random bird or ocean themed awkwardly named shop... that are scattered like annoying bits of sand all over the coast. Sorry it's just ridiculous how many of these stupid stores are out there! Yeah I've bought from them but it's still crazy the number of them. Ok so Tsunami is a good shop for name brands like Reef, Hurley, Volcom, Sanuk, Oakley, Billabong, etc. They have toys and beach gear for little ones. Boogie boards, SUPs, skateboards, and even Elvis towels! Did you hear me, Elvis people!! Also they have the hokey glass dolphin trinkets that seem to still be stocked on shelves even though its not 1976 anymore... Yeah... Epic

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.

Sweetwater Surf Shop is an institution indispensable to the surfing culture of the Wrightsville…read moreBeach community, and no surf trip is complete without a stop in Sweetwater. The store is owned by Chuck Bourgeois and his family (You may have heard of his son, world class pro surfer Ben Bourgeois.) and has that wonderful family-owned, hometown feel that is so hard to find. Everyone who works at Sweetwater seems passionate about it, and most are more knowledgeable about the sport of surfing and its equipment than I could ever hope to be. They're great to talk to for advice about everything from wax and wetsuits to travel arrangements in Costa Rica. Tony Butler is Sweetwater's manager, and he contributes much of the content on wblivesurf.com, including daily photos and surf reports. Sweetwater also runs a surf report phone line (910-256-8184) to keep you up to date on changing surf conditions. Sweetwater carries a huge selection of the best brands of surf boards, skate boards, snow boards, wetsuits (in the winter), swimsuits, board shorts, flip flops, surf and skate DVDs, and all the other equipment, clothing and accessories you might need for surfing, skating or snowboarding. If you can't find something you want, just ask, and the staff will bend over backwards to help you locate it. They can probably custom order it if they don't have it available. Plus, they have great sales. Sweetwater Surf Shop is located a block from the beach in downtown Wrightsville, so you don't have to go very far out of your way between surf sessions to stop in, browse and say hello. This place definitely does not require shirt and shoes for service!
