Inland Waterway Provision Co

Want to know about the area? Come into this store and you'll find all your shopping needs but also a feel for the area. Boating needs, maps, recommendations on how to spend your day, some healthy grocery options, touristy gifts, a cubby with an explanation of why dragon imagery is throughout the town... I left with a much better idea of the area and where to spend my time in town. Friendly people shopping and working there. Oh there's also a book swap area in the back corner. It's great.

Great local shop for marine supplies and gear and other sundries. I was looking for good foul weather gear and only place in area with any in stock. Had what I was looking for.

I'm a sailor doing some work on my boat. This store is a huge asset. Not only do they have a great selection of items I need, the staff are knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I have come to rely on them for good advice about how to proceed on my projects. Their support is worth a huge amount and their camaraderie is priceless.

They have everything a sailor needs. They are a great store with very friendly employees. They are also friendly to dogs which is a plus!

Rachel and Ben are a big help everytime we stop in with a new project. Thank you both for all you do! Highly recommend!

On a quick visit to Oriental my family was near desperate for some gluten free pasta. Our Google search for GROCERY STORES did not inform us of the Inland Waterway Provision Company, but we were lucky to see it while driving past! Theresa was very helpful and eager to accommodate. We will be back, for sure!

I am continuously impressed at the selection they somehow manage to keep in this storespace. If they don't have it they will get it, and have been able to magically track down some really obscure parts for our French-made boat. The prices are competitive even with the online stores and the folks are friendly, even the dog is welcomed.

Great Shoppe. Was in town visiting my family. We stop by and were able to find some great Oriental NC souvenirs to take back to VA. They also have a grand selection of nautical gear for sea worthy vessels.😎👍👍

Great place and staff. Can borrow bikes, and it is dog friendly.

The store is fabulous. A bit of everything & it's all great quality. Groceries to boat parts & t-shirts, they have it all. This is the second dinghy we've purchased from them. As before, good deal, on time delivery and an absolutely fantastic staff. Cruiser or tourist, this is a great place to stop in. Got some fabulous fresh picked blueberries too.

Great selection of items. Marine supplies, gluten free and organic foods, jewelry, clothing, kids toys and games, beer and wine as well as souvenirs. Something for everyone! Love it.

The staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They carry 3 brands of inflatable boats: AB, Achilles, and Highfield; and all three brands are excellent quality boats. The store itself offers a wide variety of provisions for boaters (boat parts, lines, some grocery items, etc. -- even beer!), as well as local souvenirs. It is a "must stop" location when visiting Oriental. I encourage all visitors to stop in and check it out!

A GREAT store in Oriental! We spent 6 months dealing with boat issues and COVID. The Provision Store provided ordered parts, boat stuff, local foods, meat and local knowledge. Service was professional. Staff was friendly. Laughs and smiles were plentiful. A GREAT shop in Oriental that deserves a Ten!

I love this little shop. They have unique finds. And Teresa was so kind to us.

Amazing waterfront store! Has various marine supplies (good selection, though not exhaustive), food items (staples plus esoteric things like curry powders and fancy olives), craft beers, and funny t-shirts and other tchotchkes. Incredibly friendly people who are full of advice and information for travelers.

My water heater decided to stop working and these folks helped me get a new one for a great price quick. Also really like that they enforced mask wearing back during peak covid. So many people coming and going in boats best to be safe by following scientific information.

This company is customer service oriented. Very friendly staff. Extremely helpful in finding what you need. If they don't have what you want on hand, they can have it in just a day or so. Their prices are competitive, and typically less than the other marine suppliers in the area.
Located right next to the harbour. A short walk from the docks.

Neat little store that has all sorts of boating stuff, craft bears, consignment items, local souvenir stuff... The list goes on. If ya need something, you may just find it here. If you don't need anything, stop by anyways; you may just find something you couldn't live without.

Mail Order Boats???
They sold me a beautiful Highfield Inflatable at a great price and delivered it to Maryland. It included a Garmin GPS and all the paperwork to give me the Title etc.. Thank you so much!!

Delightful variety of unusual foods, clothing, nautical gifts, nautival wear,jewelry, chocolate, fresh local produce, wine and more. Great fun staff.
