Good store that’s great to shop and browse. They also have a small shave ice stand that is very cheap with lots of great flavors.

I came here with two gal friends on vaca to stop by for some shaved ice and wondering what to do to fill our afternoon. While in line for shaved ice(which was pretty cheap and really yummy, especially the lychee and mango flavors!), we saw a sign that they also did board rentals. All 3 of us just wanted to try a stand up board for a brief time. The surfing school we ran across only did 2 hour lessons, but it seemed simple enough to try out ourselves. This rental shop was the perfect solution — $ 15 per hour! They rent all types of boards — surfing, long, short, body, etc. Everyone was really friendly, especially the dude who seemed to run the place. We were stressing about how we’d bring it to the beach, but he even walked the board across the road for us, put it in the water, and gave a 30-second crash course, which is exactly what we wanted. We all had a blast with our allotted 20 minutes. Personally, I thought I was gonna die when I first tried to stand up on the thing. Then I saw a turtle coming up for air, in my panicked state of mind I was sure I was going to fall in and the turtle was going to eat me. Haha. Anyway you gotta try it. Also they offer a free shaved ice for every rental. The dude asked us how many were in our group and we said 4… he gave us 4 free shaved ice coupons! Unfortunately, our busy schedule didn’t allow us to get back to have that shaved ice, but we still appreciated the gesture :)
