At 12:00 in the afternoon,I went in to get a Henna tattoo. I had just come in from being in the beach for a few hours and was sweaty. The Instruction sheet they had posted said they would clean the tattoo location with alcohol before applying it. She did not clean it at all and just started applying the ink. They looked nice when she was done. I paid $73 for two small tattoos. They were much pricier than I expected, but I was willing to bite the bullet for a little fun that should last a few weeks. Both her verbal instructions and the posted instructions said the ink would dry in 1-2 hours, begin to peel and then I should wash it off. At the two hour mark, they were still wet and sticky. I kept protecting them from smudges and hoped they would dry soon. At 5:30, they were still wet and sticky. At 9:00 pm, they were still wet and sticky. They never dried so I could peel it off and wash. I finally had to take a shower so I could go to bed and when I tried to wash them, they smeared ink all over my arm, leg and hand, leaving me with semi-permanent stains everywhere and looking terrible. The next day I went in and talk to the manager explaining what happened. I totally understood that if I had smudged them, it would be on me, but it seems that either they had a defective product or by not cleaning the area first she messed up. She just said they don't give any refunds. She offered to give me a partial store credit, but I knew if I accepted those terms I would have no recourse for getting my money back. I am challenging the charges...

Destination Beach and Surf is the perfect one-stop shop for all things beach! They have a massive selection of beach essentials, from classic beach chairs and umbrellas to high-quality sun hats, towels, and snorkel gear. You can also find water shoes, sand toys for kids, boogie boards, beach bags, coolers, and even sunscreen options—everything you need for a full beach day.

The store itself is spacious and well-organized, making it easy to browse their wide range of products without feeling crowded. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, you’ll find the setup and layout make it convenient to find what you’re looking for. Destination Beach and Surf truly thought of everything a beachgoer might need, and the staff is friendly and helpful too. Highly recommend this spot for beach prep!

It is such a fun place and they have great prices. We stopped here and got swim shorts and some towels. The staff was welcoming and the location is very easy to get in and out of. It is also very kid...

We went in to purchase each of our kids some hermit crabs and had not a clue what it would Intel. We were completely blown away with the customer service we received from Sammy!!! He knew exactly everything there is to know about handling and caring for the crabs as pets and gave plenty of suggestions on what to do when we got home as he has a cool sounding hermit crab farm at his home as well! I do not usually leave reviews but the company could not have hired a more knowledgeable, kind, and funny person to make customers like us want to return year after year. He made our experience one that had no ways to express our thanks! When I see people loving and truly passionate about thier jobs and can spill that happiness over to a stranger they definitely need to be recognized so THANK YOU Sammy! Sincerely your new...

It was a large souvenir and gift shop that also sells clothing and bathing suits. They did not gave anything related to the local 25 anniversary of Sand Fest. That was our main reason for coming in. Wish they would stock more than the Chinese junk every other shop has. Maybe some local event magnets, National Seashore stuff, or local attraction swag. I miss the old Pat McGees from yonder years in Port A. We did get picture with the shark in it, because that's the real reason people stop at these shops.
