“I was on the island for a few days and forgot to bring my sneakers. The slides I had been wearing were falling apart so I desperately searched for a shoe store. This was the only one in the area. When I walked in I wasn't sure if I'd even find anything. I'm hard to shop for, plus I suffer from plantars fasciitis. Lisa greeted me with a friendly smile immediately and asked what I was looking for. I told her I wasn't really sure, I just needed something to walk in that wasn't going to be bad for my feet. She asked me a few questions and did a proper fitting, then went to the back to grab a pair for me to try. To my amazement the first pair she brought out was almost perfect. The foot pain I was experiencing when I walked in had eased up when I put the shoes on. Not only was it comfortable but I really liked the style, which was a little less loud than some of the other options on display. She brought out a couple more pairs and I ended up choosing the third, a pair of Mizuno Enerzy, wave inspire 19s. They were a bit pricier than I had expected, but they seemed very well made and I was desperate. Plus with the store's 30 day return policy, what did I have to lose? Lisa is amazing at her job. I couldn't believe she found something for me so quickly. Usually I can't find anything until I'm 3 or 4 stores in. She is extremely pleasant to talk to, and even threw in a little freebie for my birthday. I wore my new shoes out immediately and headed for the Strand. I was able to walk there and shop around for several hours with ZERO FOOT PAIN! For someone like me who's every step can be sheer agony, that is a real miracle. Thank you, Lisa and Galveston Island Running! You literally saved my vacation.”

“Super clean bait shop! We walked in and were greeted by a soft citrus scent. Nothing like other bait shops. Reasonable prices for everything. She has snacks and drinks and is super sweet! Bait shop is located right next to the bridge and is also a good fishing spot.”

“Bought a 12' rod. Surprisingly, it was the longest surf rod in the store. Also bought some braided line which they put on the reel I brought in. Great service.”
