Jake’s Cargo at South Beach Marina

Jakes Cargo, spelled Jake’s Cargo on the sign, is the Salty Dog’s gift and souvenir shop at South Beach Marina in Sea Pines. It is named for Jake, the black Lab at the center of the Salty Dog story, and it sits a few steps from the Salty Dog Cafe.
Where to find it right now: while the South Beach Marina is being redeveloped, Jake’s Cargo is operating out of the Land’s End Tavern building, which is temporarily closed for dining. Same marina, same street address.
What Jake’s Cargo Hilton Head Sells
It is a browse-and-find store: nautical trinkets, quirky gifts and souvenirs, the latest Salty Dog gear, and gifts for pets, which suits a shop named for a dog. It is also known for its two live parrots, Captain Cherokee and Kiwi.
For Salty Dog shirts and apparel specifically, and for buying online, see the Salty Dog Cafe store page, which covers the T-Shirt Shop at the marina, the T-Shirt Factory on Arrow Road, and the two online shops.
