Love the selection here, the staff is very knowledgable, helpful and supportive (I am taking up skate boarding) The styles of clothing are up to date with quality fabric and brands etc. The overall prices are competitive and they have a good selection of mark downs. I always find something new when I go. There's alot to take in when exploring the place. read more

I've heard this is the only major surfboard rental shop by the national seashore. We rented out their full selection of beginner boards, which was only five, so we had to go to another shop afterwards. The service was amazing as the guy at the shop was very attentive and helped us load and strap our boards to the car. The boards were Surftech and were good quality. The shop was very big and had so much apparel and gear. read more

We rented a kayak for the day unfamiliar with the area. The young man working was extremely helpful with suggestions. He also helped us load and unload the kayak There is also a large selection of surf and watersports equipment and apparel sold there. read more

Your typical surf shop at the beach. Tons of beach gear and clothing. Your typical surfer employee, waiting for the shift to be over to hit the surf. Very helpful, watched them help a few guys with fixes right then and there. The prices are a bit high, but all brand-name surf wear. It is definitely the best surf shop in the area. read more

Always come here on trips to Port A, great bathing suits and surf boards. Gets you excited about being near the beach!!

I just bought my first long board with very little knowledge about boarding. Both if the clerks were willing to talk to me about what I wanted out of ny first board, why some of the boards I was looking at may not be the right choice. They even suggested cheaper products. They were super knowledgeable and stayed a little past closing to make sure I was happy with my purchase. All in all an awesome experience. read more

We went here looking for a board for my daughter. The staff was very helpful. I felt like they were very knowledgable and explained the equipment very well. Their prices are fare and they are stocked up with new and used equipment. They are definitely worth a stop while shopping for all types of surfboards and kayaks. The parking situation could be a bit better but it's not a big deal. They do try to sell sell sell but I like that in a world where you get completely ignored by staff while trying to buy something at big box stores like best buy. Wind and Wave is a surfing staple in Corpus and is worth a stop. read more

Great surf & watersports store, large selection of surf boards and relevant gear. Recently, rented a double kayak which includes paddles, lifejackets and car tie-downs ($65). Extremely friendly & helpful staff. Made the experience quick & painless. We were in, out, & on the water as quick as possible. I'm certain there are lots of options in town, however this appears to be the premier store/rental option in the area. I would recommend. read more

Super helpful friendly people. More expensive than academy or Walmart, but they are very experienced and give you tons of information. They have all day kayak rentals with paddles, seat and life jacket for about $50. read more

My wife and I are novices. We have recently purchased a paddle board from them and we enjoy it so much (We wanted to make sure) that we purchased a second one so that we can enjoy it together. Frank runs a first class operation. Every time that we have been in there, and it was a decent number of times before pulling the trigger, every person in the shop is extremely friendly. Every one of them has a passion for the water and it shows. I personally was thinking a kayak for me originally but with the options I had with the Kahuna I could have the best of both worlds. If you are in the market or even just curious I would highly recommend a trip here before anywhere else. read more

Such great service here! My and my girlfriend rented a Kayak for the day (first timers) & the guys on shift were absolutely amazing. From friendliness to timeliness, they made the experience completely hassle-free! Seriously the locals here know their stuff and they're soooo easy going! I won't be going to any other shop when we're in the area. 5 stars for sure!!! read more

Wind and Wave Watersports - Basic two seater Kayak w/ paddles. $60 for all day rental - Rafting/Kayaking Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

See all

This Surf Shop is, above and beyond, deserving of a 5-Star Rating. From the Customer Service, to the equipment and attire, this is the only place I will use for anything beach-related. Being it was our first time taking out kayaks on Padre Island, we were clueless! The three gentlemen working that afternoon were not only sincere in their Customer Service, but truly knowledgeable of the equipment and of the area. They truly shaped our experience, from start to finish. We look forward to utilizing them all season! read more

Super friendly staff, answered a lot of questions from us northern tourists about our surfboard rental, provided recommendations for where & when to catch the best surf, gave us extra wax for the 4 day rental. Didn't buy any clothes, but they have a great selection of those too. Highly recommended! read more

I was just there and boy, let me tell you.....For starters, the store carries our favorite brand of clothing and always has the best of it. The staff is always awesome and helpful. Last but definitely not least, the guy behind the counter was extremely attractive, (10 out of 10 would bone). We will definitely be back. read more

Always stop by here on surf trips down to Port Aransas (usually cause I forgot to pack something) Good deals on stuff, awesome knowledgeable staff. They'll rent equipment too wether it be surf or kayak your looking for. Just make sure you get off before you go across the causeway. This place is my favorite of the (admittedly few) surf shops in the area. read more

Called half an hour before we planned to stop at the shop. Guy on the phone was very knowledgeable and helped us get some idea of the surf spots on the island. They were able to help us strap two boards on our Jeep and prices for all day rentals were moderate. They also have some cool clothes and water sports gear just in case you forgot something at home. Returning the boards was simple and I def recommend stopping by this shop. read more

I've been in here a few times and the staff is always really nice and helpful. I recently bought a roof rack from them and the guys working were super helpful. I installed it outside of the shop and they told me to come in if I have any questions. I had a couple of hiccups and they took the time to help me out and make sure my rack was installed properly. Great customer service! read more

These guys are awesome! I didn't get their names, but I had two guys help me and they were both very helpful and nice. I bought my first kayak there so I didn't really know much. They helped me narrow my choices down to 2 and then they took those 2 kayaks down the street for me and put them in the water so I could give them a test drive. This was extremely helpful, as the kayaks handled very differently and I actually was leaning towards buying the one that I ended up not liking very much. They even watched me in the water and helped me choose the best fit. They did it all with a great attitude too, they didn't make me feel stupid or anything. :) You just don't get that kind of service at Academy. :) read more

Last stop before the beach. Get off at the Waldron exit. Reader and the gang will help you out with whatever equipment you need.
