Jamis Bikes

We're an authorized Jamis Bikes dealer carrying a wide range of their cruisers, hybrids, and road bikes. Some of our favorites include the Boss Cruiser and Earth Cruiser, which we use in our rental fleet. Jamis offers these cruisers in a variety of configurations including single speed, 3 speed, and 7 speed. If you want to try before you buy, come rent one and we'll credit your rental fee toward the purchase of your brand new bike.

On the higher end, Jamis offers road and mountain bikes with comprable materials and components to all other manufacturers, often at much better prices. If you're interested in a new Jamis, come see us!

Check out the Jamis website for the full line up and specs!

...And we sell used bikes too! As you can imagine, they come and go quickly, so we can't feature them on our website. You'll have to give us a call or stop by to see what we have at the moment!

Surf Lessons

Surf Lessons are a great and affordable experience for people of all ages. Summertime conditions in the Bethany Beach area are very favorable for beginning surfers. Lessons are typically run at the North Side of Indian River inlet or at the State Park in Fenwick Island depending on wave height and wind. Lessons are offered individually or for groups. Discounted pricing is available for large groups. Please contact us at the shop for details.

Pricing and Reservations

For 2015, we’ll be offering surf lessons at the base rate of $50 per person/per hour. For groups of 2 or more, the rate is $45 per person/hour. Reservations can be made by calling the shop at 302-537-9058 or in person. Typically, when scheduling reservations we ask for your availability for a number of days. Our instructors will monitor the conditions and work with you on selecting a time that will be favorable for a lesson. If you’re coming to town for a week’s vacation there will probably be a few days of good waves.
