Surfin' Turtle Ice Cream Shoppe
About This Spot
Stepping into Surfin' Turtle Ice Cream Shoppe in Satellite Beach, you immediately feel the gentle rhythm of a laid-back coastal spot where sweet indulgence meets familiar comfort. The pace here is easygoing, inviting you to slow down, savor a moment, and maybe exchange a smile or two with neighbors who’ve been coming back for years. It’s a place where summer memories linger all year long, framed by soft pastel hues and an atmosphere that’s as welcoming as a porch on a warm Florida evening.
Whether you're nestled on their cozy outdoor seating or grabbing something quick through the drive-thru, Surfin' Turtle offers a playful yet relaxed vibe that suits families, friends, and solo visitors alike. The joy here isn’t just in the ice cream itself but in the way every scoop feels thoughtfully crafted — each sundae or swirl seems to carry a little story, a childhood favorite, or a simple moment of happiness.
From creamy classics to nostalgic treats like their playful turtle sundaes or a smooth Dole Whip swirl, there’s an inviting sense of fun without any rush. The menu is welcomingly broad, catering to those who want an elaborate sundae experience and those who prefer the quiet delight of a straightforward cone or a freshly brewed cup of coffee in the morning. You might notice small, caring touches — like the unusually generous straws, making every sip a bit easier — that quietly speak to the shop’s genuine attention to comfort and detail.
Surfin' Turtle feels less like a stop and more like a gentle pause, a little local haven to enjoy simple pleasures with a kind smile behind the counter. It’s a spot where the ice cream isn’t just a treat, but part of a shared community warmth, inviting you back time and time again, whether you’ve been coming since childhood or are just discovering this sweet corner of Satellite Beach.

Absolutely fantastic! "The Ice Please exceeded all my expectations. Whether it was the quality, presentation, or customer service, everything was top-notch. Highly recommended and definitely worth five stars!" Let me know if you'd like a more personalized review (e.g. for a specific product, service, or experience)!

Always the perfect ice cream treat served up here. Pleasant porch atmosphere or convenient drive thu service. My favorite is just a simple vanilla malt with double malt. Of course I gladly accept whip cream and a cherry on top. The added touch is they always provide a larger diameter straw, not the usual cold beverage type. Most appreciated, and not routinely done at other ice cream establishments in this area.

I love how many options there are, I especially like to go here for the cute turtles and the dole whip is top tier. I’ve been personally coming here since I was a kid and they never fail to be consistently good. I’m also liking the design changes that they have made, the color scheme is so much different than it used to be but it’s cool. Please stop here if you’re in town! They got ice cream :)

Loved this place! Super creamy with generous portion sizes. The outdoor seating area is also super cute—perfect for enjoying a sweet treat. My boyfriend got the chocolate peanut butter, and I had the cotton candy—both were so yummy!

We love Surfin Turtle for their amazing ice cream and service! But I want to highlight an exceptional experience today! We arrived at 10 am to grab some ice cream, because we saw based on their hours they were open. The gentleman owner (sorry wish I knew your name!) approached us and gently apologized and told us that they don't serve soft serve until 11, and they only do coffee in the morning. But they could give us hard scoop, which was a really kind offer. My husband asked specifically if about peanut butter, before just saying he would just check out the menu. I ended up getting coffee anyways, and was surprised to see they had an assortment of different types of espresso drinks! I got a brown sugar shaken espresso, which was served in the cutest pop tab can with a sticker. More importantly, it was absolutely delicious. A year going here, and I never even knew! My husband ended up getting mint chocolate chip hard scoop, which we already knew would be great, having been here many times before. But when picking it up the nice lady (also sorry for not knowing your name!) said that since my husband asked earlier about peanut butter, they wanted to provide a sample scoop. Now that is really kind. Shows they listen to customers, really care about the experience, and really want people to feel welcome and special. Again, nothing we didn't already know about ST! But today it felt really special, because they did not have to accommodate any of that for us. They choose to, because they are a 5 star ice cream place. No shortage of them in this area, but this is the best one hands down.

We loved our experience at the Surfin' Turtle. The little patio area with the tables and turtles was super cute. I think that they could use an upgraded awning and lights, otherwise it was perfect. The ice cream was delicious and beautifully made.

Chill little ice cream spot that’s easy to stop by after the beach. They’ve got a good mix of flavors, portions are solid for the price, and the staff is always pretty friendly. It’s nothing fancy, just a laid-back place to grab something sweet when you’re in the area. Super consistent and always hits when it’s hot out.

I absolutely love their ice cream, and their milkshakes are always so creamy and delicious. The service is top-notch every time I visit. They also launched coffee recently, which is such a great addition. I tried the macchiato and it was amazing. Highly recommend!
