About Changing Tides Gift Shop
For years, my family and I would come down to Arnolds Neck Drive with our boat and launch it at Ray’s Bait just down the street. I would look at the run-down fishing shanty and say it would make an amazing gift shop.
In 1997, the building went up for sale. After a year of working with the town and the Department of Environmental Management (DEM), Changing Tides Gift Shop was opened in 1998. Since then, my gift shop has been selling unique, handmade products for many years.
