🪁 Meet the people who started it all. ❤️

In 1991, Ralph and Suanne took a leap of faith and opened a little kite shop in Port Aransas. They couldn’t have known then that their dream would grow into a place where generations of families would make memories together.

As we celebrate 35 years of Fly It Port A, we want to say thank you to the two people who started it all. Their vision, hard work, and love for kites created something truly special, and we’re honored to carry that legacy forward.

We know many of you have asked how they’re doing these days, so here’s an update!

Today, Ralph and Suanne are happily retired in Boerne, Texas. Ralph enjoys bowling in a league, working in the yard, and feeding the birds. Suanne stays active in her community and serves as the chair of a local county organization. She also enjoys going birding whenever she gets the chance.

If Ralph or Suanne helped make your visit to Fly It Port A special, we’d love to hear your stories! Share your favorite memories in the comments as we celebrate the people who started it all. 🩵🪁

🪁 Then & Now… 35 Years of Fly It Port A! 🎂

Our first photo (yellow trim) takes us back to our original little kite shop at Ave G & 10th Street, where Fly It Port A called home from 1991 to around 1997. Ralph, the previous owner, painted the murals himself!

The second photo (blue trim) is our former shop at 405 W Ave G. Many of you will remember this building, it stood here until Hurricane Harvey destroyed it in 2017. The shop you visit today was rebuilt on that same spot and reopened in 2019, beginning a new chapter while keeping the same Fly It Port A spirit alive. ❤️

So much has changed over the years… but one thing hasn’t: our love of kites and the amazing people who’ve made this little shop so special.

Now it’s your turn!

📸 Do you have old photos of the kite shop, your family flying kites in Port Aransas, or memories of visiting us in the ‘90s or early 2000s? We’d LOVE to see them!

“I don’t care what you say anymore… this is my life, and I’m getting that giant crab!” 🦀😂

Good news… now it’s even easier to say YES! Our giant crab ground kites are now available at a new lower price!

These oversized beach buddies don’t fly in the sky, they inflate with the wind and scurry across the sand, turning heads everywhere they go.

Come grab your crab before they crawl away! 🌊☀️

Did you know? Every kite has a different wind range!

Some kites excel in light breezes. Others need stronger winds. Choosing the right kite for the conditions makes all the difference! 🪁

One of our favorites is the Zenith 7 with a wind range of 5–25 mph.

That’s an incredible range, which means you’ll have more days to fly and less time wishing for different weather. ☀️🌬️

If you’re looking for a kite that’s ready for almost any beach day, the Zenith 7 is a fantastic choice!
