What a great experience at the Bote store! Super friendly staff will talk paddle-boards, secret fishing spots, life or any thing else without pushing sales on you. Stop in for sure if you’re curious at all about Bote products.

Biggest selection of boards, boats, furniture and accessories! I got a waterproof sling bag! And some great advice on where to SUP in the area.

Bote quality speaks for itself. There isn’t any better. As a first time paddle boarder it was the customer service and attention I received in the shop that made the difference for me. Answered all of my questions. Weren’t pushy. Friendly. And passionate about their products. Absolutely love what I bought!!!

Picked up a couple of boards today after talking to Justin on the phone yesterday. Justin anwsered all of our questions and helped my wife and I find the perfect board for our needs. We left the store and went right to a spot we wanted to check out. Probably had a top 10 day on the water, could not believe how close I could get to redfish without being noticed. The boards are really well built and easy to use. Love them! Thanks Justin! I was on the fence about buying a board until I talked to you.

We went into the Both Destin store expecting...well, not what we found. We were greeted by Chris as we entered the store, and he was absolutely amazing for our entire visit.Being fairly new to paddle boarding, Chris was informative, educating, and supremely patient with all of our (my) questions. When it was all said and done, we ended up buying a couple new boards, a trunkful of accessories, and picking up a ton of brand loyalty.This store is what a flagship retail location should be, and Chris is exactly the right person to be representing the company. My only complaint is that I can't give them more than 5 stars.JP

I wanted to take the time and let people know how amazing this company is… Bote, a local Florida USA company that has proved to be an amazing business with outstanding products and customer service. I purchased an expensive 5 piece paddle system and had a manufactures defect that caused the paddle system to fail. I contacted Bote and spoke with Bennett who was extremely professional and helpful. He immediately proceeded a warranty claim once he received photos from me and proceeded to make thing whole again. What puts them above others is not only how fast they did this but, I told them I had a kayaking trip this weekend and they overnighted the new paddle system to me so I had it for the trip! I want to thank the company so much for an amazing customer service system. I received a new paddle system in time. I am highly my impressed with this company. U will always have my business. Thank you!

We walked into BOTE last week knowing nothing about paddle boats or paddle boarding, we just knew we wanted one. Kevin was sooooo helpful and patient with us and happily answered all of our questions. He went above and beyond to help me get comfortable with paddle boarding before I got out to the water. He gave us so many tips for beginners that have really helped me in my first week of paddle boarding. I’ve been out paddle boarding 4 days so far and have only had it for a week. I’m hooked! Thank you so much for your help, Kevin! We really appreciate it!!

Looking for a new toy? Bote in Destin,Fl is your place I wanted to talk to someone before I invested the money on a new ride I’ve surfed for years but I didn’t know anything about paddle boards until I stopped by and talked to Chris at the retail shop in Destin. He walked me through everything you ever wanted to know about SUP It’s an amazing shop with everything you could imagine to kick off a new hobby with expert advise. I bought the inflatable Flood model and couldn’t be happier, See you in the water!
