Merchandise is your typical fare of tourist attraction stuff, no surprise there. The quality is horrid however, far moreso than I had expected, and the service is no better. Older gal at the front who is usually there has a constant sneer going on, speaks in curt and clipped sentences, won't look you in the eye, constantly has some video on full blast in front of her even as you are trying to check out, and tried to ignore your existence fit any reason other than to cash you out.

I mean unless you're looking for Ocean Isle specific merchandise it makes sense to just bring your own stuff to the island.
