History

Established in 1978.

Island Water Sports was first opened on October 20, 1978 in Pompano Beach, behind McDonalds, off Atlantic Blvd. With $ 15,000 and about 500 sq. feet the venture was begun. It was September, 1979, and things started to happen. It was the year Hurricane David came through town. Of course, everything was closed except our surf shop as the waves were good and our customers needed supplies. We thank the Lord for a grand opening sale boost.

Meet the Business Owner

Cheyne C.

Business Owner

Island Water Sports is located in Deerfield Beach, on the east coast of South Florida. At Island Water Sports surfing is not just our business, it’s our blood. We are owned and operated by second and third generation surfers and skateboarders. Kirk Cottrell opened the shop in 1978. His son, Cheyne, took his first steps as a child inside the store and now Cheyne oversees the operation with the help of his mom, sisters and close family friends.

While overseeing the shop, Cheyne also mantains a professional surfing career. Many of our other staff members are also top rated amateur and professional surfers, which ensures that we have the most up to date product knowledge and experience!
