Flipper's provides many items in the garage as a bonus to make your vacation more enjoyable but the condition of the items is largely dependent on the guests who stay before you. There is a bike pump to air up the tires in the bikes, please don't ride bikes in saltwater as it will rust them up prematurely. Fishing poles are provided but the guests must rig them up and there is an honor system tackle box for guests to use some tackle/leave some tackle - there is a bait shop a couple blocks away.
