I love this place any time I am in Cape May or Stone Harbor, New Jersey. I live in Savannah, Georgia now and we don't have any surf shops that even compare. So much so, that I ended up ordering some branded clothing from them at the start of this season. Really friendly, and contacted me to make sure my address was correct before sending the items my way. Can't wait to visit in person, again :)

This was our first visit to Cape May and we were happy to find Pete Smith's. It's an upscale surf shop chock full of great clothes and beach gear. We bought a lot of clothes here that were great for our vacation, but also high quality stuff we'll be happy to use back home when our vacation is over. I saw some of the reviews about the staff being rude and/or snobby and I guess I can see where they're coming from, but in my experience the staff was either friendly and polite or else maybe a bit indifferent. I wasn't bothered. I'm not mad at a 20 year old who's working a summer job and is maybe a bit "too cool to care" (authentic surfer attitude?). No big deal. Love the store. Staff ranges from great to good enough. That said, maybe other customers were treated worse than we were? We love the store. Edited to add the following to the above: We finally made our return trip to Cape May and thus, Pete Smith's (I was really looking forward to going to Pete Smith's again!). While the service two years ago ranged from just "fine" to really good, this time around I thought the service was even better. I would say that this time the service ranged from "good" to "fantastic". Meghan in particular was amazing. Very helpful, professional, friendly, and positive.
