While vacationing in Long Beach Island this past week, we found some amazing carved wooden tikis for sale at a small surf shop! They reminded us sooo much of the Poly, they are so very authentic and fun! We purchased 4 of them! One is 6 feet tall, and he's on our deck, the next is 2 1/2 feet tall, and in our rock garden at the end of our deck, and 2 are just about a foot, and are on 2 shelves on our deck. With our tiki torches lit, I feel like we have a little bit of the Poly at home!!!

Was it a regular surf shop or an actual tiki themed shop? Because I have a friend who has a vacation house in LBI and whenever I visit her I pass a shop on the side of the road that seems like it sells nothing but tiki huts, torches, and totem poles! I always said when I get my own place I will definitely have to stop there and pick up some items for my backyard.

Its called the Wave Hog surf shop, but its the place that sells the tiki huts...the only place on the island to sell them I believe, so we must be thinking of the same place. We had so much fun picking them out. It is a little hole in the wall kind of place, with the tiki huts and tikis outside and much more tiki and polynesian stuff, signs, masks, etc...inside!
