“What a great store for the Island. Has way more than a regular convenience store with local products (I got honey & soap as gifts), beach themed items; although we were on the hunt for skim boards for our boys and had to go elsewhere. I asked about their cup advertising and their "styrofoam" cups are actually biodegradable eco-friendly - that's a plus! Will make this my first stop whenever visiting the island.”
