Carribbean Connection is a Jax Beach staple. This surf, skate, tattoo, piercing, clothing, and Ticketmaster purveyor is popular with a wide range of patrons and it shows in their small but eclectic selection of merchandise. On any given trip to C.C. you could leave with a pair of Vans, a new bauble for your belly ring, some incense, sleep shorts, and tickets to an upcoming concert. A lot of their gear is your typical, over-priced surf swag, but they offset this by sprinkling in more reasonably priced items and brands. As a noted jewelry addict, I found their selection of charms and dangles to be quite diverse for a surf/skate shop. The staff is friendly and conversational, and they seem genuinely interested in informing customers about their merchandise and any deals going on. The last time I stopped in, Aaron helped me out, and he was just a straight-up awesome guy. It makes a shopping experience so enjoyable when you feel truly welcomed and engaged by the staff. (But not pestered to buy anything!) Â All around this is a cool, little spot.
