When East Of Maui first opened its doors we specialized in windsurfing and surfing equipment. The sport of windsurfing was still in its early days and the real innovations were happening on Maui. In the 1980's Maui Hawaii was the center of the windsurfing world. This is where you went if windsurfing was your passion. After spending many months windsurfing on Maui we decided to bring the Maui experience home with us to Delaware. There were only a handful of shops specializing in windsurfing on the east coast. We did not feel that any of these were up to the standards of what we had experienced on Maui so we decided to start East Of Maui Surf Shop in Dewey Beach.
