This place is good, and a nice idea. It's just an average beach tourist gift shop, but the layout…read moreis really cool with an octopus outside. 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. One of the only things I hate about this place is animal care. Their hermit crabs are treated like crap and half of them are dead. Other than that, this place is decent.

We visited yesterday on 5/16/2023. Walked in the door at 8:22 and was told by the lady at the…read moreregister that they closed in around 20 minutes (Google said 9 PM). When asked if they closed at 8:45 then she said, "about about that time" since she didn't want to serve customers.

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
