About Island Bike & Surf
Island Bike & Surf is a bike and beach gear rental shop located on Isle of Palms, one of Charleston's most popular barrier island beach communities. Situated just minutes from the Isle of Palms connector bridge, the shop provides convenient access to cruiser bikes, beach cruisers, surfboards, bodyboards, skim boards, and beach equipment for visitors staying on the island or making a day trip from downtown Charleston.
Their rental fleet includes single-speed beach cruisers, multi-speed comfort bikes, tandem bikes, kids' bikes with training wheels, trail-a-bikes for families, and bike trailers for toddlers. On the water side, they carry soft-top surfboards in multiple sizes, bodyboards, skim boards, and basic beach chairs and umbrellas. Rentals are available hourly, daily, or weekly, with free delivery and pickup anywhere on Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island. They also offer basic surf lessons for beginners, run by local surfers who know the best breaks and conditions on the island.
Island Bike & Surf has been a staple of the Isle of Palms vacation experience for years, and their delivery service is the main reason visitors choose them over competitors — no need to strap bikes to a car roof or carry surfboards across the island. The staff are friendly, the gear is well-maintained, and the weekly rental rates are among the most competitive on the island. For families renting a beach house on IOP or Sullivan's Island, one call to Island Bike & Surf sorts out bikes for the whole crew plus beach and surf gear for the week.
