Last week I was going on a road trip driving through the neighborhood when my car broke down and I had to stay at a local motel for a day or two. To say the least I was a bit bummed out. I ended up going for a walk and I found your shop, I'm so happy that I did! You guys have so many crystals and odds and ends that I did not and would not have expected in this small town. You guys were so friendly it really brighten my day on an otherwise gloomy day for me. Seriously keep up the good work and I can't wait to come back and visit and buy more stuff! 😁❤

I finally was able to go into this wonderful store my last trip out. Nathan was helpful & very knowledgeable about his store & the surrounding area. I listened as he helped a family find fun family things to do in the area.
His products are fantastic & the prices are great. I was worried about taking my purchases on the plane home & he mailed them home for me. I went back to see him several times while I was out & I look forward to shopping there again. He had things I had been looking for for years. Honestly I found them other places but could never afford them in other places. I highly recommend this store, not just for adults but the kids will find something & have a ball doing it.

I just discovered the Wampum trading post several months ago and have been there a few times and just LOVE it! You can't beat the location at all (across the street from the ocean) and every time I go, there are new and interesting items being added to the store! The employees there are knowledgeable and friendly and always have good information and experiences to share about the items they carry - clearly they are personally picking out the stock themselves! It seems like the store has been in the family for awhile now? A great variety of stones, incense, candles, books, items from local artists, windchimes, Native American artwork, and a selection of snacks and beverages, too! I love the friendly and casual atmosphere and it always feels like I've walked into my friend's place instead of a beach tourist trap.

Like entering a world class trading post! None of the fakery from another country. The gem stones, authentic handmade native jewelry are classic! I'm looking forward to those classes to start!!!

We've been going to the Wampum Trading Post for at least the past ten years. Nancy is a wonderful person and friend. When you purchase a Native American item, which we buy a lot of, she will tell you the history of the item and the tribe that it came from. We have so many of our Native American purchases on display in our home.. We also are proud to wear our Native American jewelry that we bought there.
Wampum Trading Post is the place to go.

After Chris passed the Wampum seems to have become a tax write off-Never Open-Expensive and un-reliable. There reputation locally is not very good-This would be a pass
