Owners are very friendly and professional! I called around looking for Gator Heads and all places I called were out except this place. He said I have them in stock. I said I'll be in this weekend. That was on Friday, Went there Saturday the next day. And got one plus my wife wanted to get 2 bracelets. So we got a gator head gift for a work buddy, and 2 bracelets for her. While checking out I was told by the owners they've been there since 1983! That's incredible! 1983!!! (41 Years & still going strong) They were so kind and fun to talk to. Really cool shop I definitely recommend coming in and shopping around for gifts. They are fully stocked up with bunches of merchandise. Great music too. Very cool shop. Great experience.

We came in here looking for fix a flat for my flat tire but they didn't have any. I have an air compressor in my car but the battery was dead so I couldn't use it because I didn't have an extention cord to charge it with. The sweet clerk gave me their personal use extention cord from behind the counter and refused the money I tried to give her for it. Such a God send. I will definitely be shopping here in the future. Good people.

We visited Sanibel Surf Shop August 13th and were so happy to see them open and were welcomed with great enthusiasm!! Missy and Bart could not have been any more helpful and so professional in their demeanor and knowledge of their product. Further conversation with them was quite heartwarming and we will always return to the surf shop if only to have the opportunity to catch up with Missy and Bart. This was our first visit back to Sanibel since the devastating hit by Ian last year. We have been so concerned but the resultant time in your store returned a portion of peace regarding the future of Sanibel overall. Thank you so much and we look forward to visiting again, soon!

I recently visited the Surf Shop yesterday (4/22/23) with my family. My girlfriend and I are out here visiting my parents. It was my girlfriends first time out of the Windy City. Upon entering the store, Mary greeted us with a genuine smile and interest in our shopping experience. It was nice to feel welcome. You don't get that a lot nowadays. She answered questions and I could see she was doing this with every customer she encountered. During our shopping experience we also encountered Ana. Ana said she loved the shirt I had picked out. She as well, was very genuine and helpful and fun to talk to. While we were having conversation at checkout, a customer came in line behind us and Mary made sure to check them out so then we didn't feel rushed to end our conversation and leave. I hope to see them both when we visit again. I hope to see these two the next time we visit and go to the shop. This Surf Shop is definitely lucky to have employees like these. Thank you Mary and Ana for a wonderful shopping experience!!

We got a ton of souvenirs here!! They have a great selection of everything. They were cheaper of the three upper stores, even before the sales prices. The lady was very friendly. We were happy to come visit and support the rebuilding of sanibel island.

Sanibel Surf Shop has entered a phase of decline, possibly due to Covid-19.It pains me to say this, but it was obvious during our visit today.There used to be a nice home goods selection, now it is pool toys, more t-shirts and cheap souvenirs.Hopefully they will make their way back and we can shop again.If you need squirt guns, key chains, t-shirts, this is your place.

I just want to make sure everyone knows that the store manager, Sonya Davis, is the very, very best! In returning an item, she couldn't have been more helpful. Thanks for being you! We'll definitely be back to the Sanibel Surf Shop
