There are lots of places to buy "stuff" for your boat, not so many for the boating lifestyle. Skipjack is the shop where you can find that special and unique addition to your boating lifestyle, be it a custom scrimshaw knife, a nautical painting, or a one-of-a-kind ship in a bottle. You can let your imagination go wild, imagining what you can do with a brass portal or ship's wheel. Much of what is offered is from salvaged ships so it's the real deal, not a fru-fru copy. Not looking for a huge addition to your home decor? Then take a look at some of the smaller gifts available, such as the hand made bracelets, nautical chart lamp shades, or nautical chart coasters. Oh, and make sure you say "hi" to Jack, the official greeter (and dog).

Each time I'm in the Hampton Roads area, I try to make a special trip just to visit this store. There's something for everyone here: apparel, antiques, jewelry, home decor, even stuff for pets! The owners are friendly and helpful and there's so much to look at around the store. I love that it's on the riverfront because it makes for a beautiful view.

Skipjack has evolved over the years to one of Hampton Roads best kept secrets! From fine art to fun art, hand crafted jewelry, beautiful lamps, brassware, fashions (t-shirts, jackets, caps and sweatshirts for your boating pleasure) and now more great home goods and decorator items -- there's just a little something for everyone -- even your dog! They also have the best view in town of Portsmouth's working harbor and the downtown waterfront! The proprietors - Joe and Alison - are delightful and know their products. Don't miss Skipjack Nautical Wares & Marine Gallery when you're visiting Olde Towne Portsmouth!

One of the best and most eclectic selections of nautical and costal items that I've seen on the East Coast.

Visiting Skipjack Nautical Wares and Marine Gallery in Olde Towne Portsmouth, Virginia, is as much a learning experience as a really good shopping one. For a mountain person such as myself who knows little about nautical culture, I find this shop and gallery teaches me about navigation maps, antique boating accessories and necessaries, concerns of contemporary boaters, and the beauty of marine paintings, carvings, and other art work. Their website offers you a chance to shop with them from a distance, but the ambiance of the shop, its congenial owners and Jack, the dog, should not be missed in person. I hope you'll leave Skipjack with several beautiful items, but I know you'll leave with a richer knowledge of life on the water.

Skipjack's is such a unique store! They have a plethora of nautical items and so much more! They have gorgeous artworks, antiques, lamps, clothing, wonderful items for a boating enthusiast, and so much more. Anytime you walk into the store you want to be able to spend hours just looking at everything and of course buying something to cherish for years! Of course their website, Skipjacknauticalwares.com offers a lot of what is available in the store but a visit to the store is something you definitely do not want to miss when you are visiting Olde Towne Portsmouth!

Skipjack Nautical Wares & Marine Gallery is a huge surprise! Entering into the front of the store you see enough to keep you busy looking for an hour - shirts, gifts, furnishings, art ( & much more)….and then, you see the SECOND room, filled with ships in a bottle, antiques, beautiful art and then, wait for it!!! There's a a third room filled with fascinating antiques gathered from ships from years gone by. Fabulous grates for tables (which they will make for you), cool lighting fixtures that can be converted to home use…..flags, oars, you name it! If they don't have it, they can probably get it for you. One of my favorites was the lamps they make from coastal charts. So cool and original. Suffice it to say, I was floored & took a lot of time looking around - and, still probably didn't see everything. Must return soon!!!
