Ocracoke Shopping: Shoes

Ride the Wind Surf Shop is your Ocracoke Island resource for surfboards, bathing suits, apparel, accessories, sunglasses, kayaks, stand-up paddle boards and more. They carry all the top brands – Quicksilver, Roxy, Rip Curl, Howler, Freefly, Patagonia, Reef, Billabong – and they are Ocracoke's exclusive source for Low Tide beach chairs and Shibumi Beach Shades. If you want to explore the water, visit their outdoor adventure kiosk located on the harbor across from the shop offering hourly, daily and weekly kayak rentals (sit-in or sit-on-top). Stop by or contact them for one-on-one or group surf lessons. They provide island visitors with the opportunity to rent surfboards, paddleboards, bodyboards and skimboards by the day or the week at the corner of Silver Lake and Highway 12.
