“My family and I stopped by twice on our week long vacation at North Topsail. Both times great service and great selection of gear and souvenires. The last day we took our kids to the sound side park down the street from East Coast Sports. The owners had a kids fishing tournament and they were the nicest people. Good to see a family run business where the owners are active in the community and very generous. I couldn’t recommend this place more.”
“Always come back to this place - owner is an awesome gentleman and local surfer. Been coming here since the 90s and can even remember when the arcade was underneath. Although certain brands have come and gone over time (that’s normal business), the integrity of this store remains true. It has to be tough battling larger selections down Wilmington way and the ever-present online retail gobbling possible sales, but this family shop has weathered all the storms (and literal hurricanes!) and is still going strong. You KNOW it’s a great place when they are catching the surf competitions in the office when customers leave. I make it a point to shop here and buy local during any vacation or trip and I recommend any casual or hardcore surfer does as well. I also went as far as trying to order an awesome BZ Bodyboard that had some really sweet colors and Stephen really went far to try and ship it up to PA for me. Although it didn’t work out, it just goes to show that they are willing to go the extra mile for any customer that wants to support their business. Just bought a new rash guard from the shop, thanks for sharing the stoke guys!”
“I was looking for my first surf board because I am a beginner. George was great and helping me select a board. When my daughter and her boyfriend came to visit I rented surf boards from this shop. Both of them had a fantastic experience. Stop in and talk with George or any of the staff. I would recommend this shop.”
