    This authentic surf shop stands out for genuinely caring about its customers, with owner Tony and his team consistently going above and beyond. Multiple visitors mention how responsive and helpful the staff are, whether you're renting equipment, taking lessons, or even getting repairs done. The vibe feels like a real local business rather than a generic beach rental spot, and customers appreciate that authenticity. The lessons get especially high marks, with instructors like Eric and Chad praised for their patience and teaching skills. First-timers regularly report standing up on boards during their sessions, and the kids' camps are popular for good reason. Rentals are equally smooth, covering everything from surfboards to paddle boards and kayaks, with flexible options like delivery service. Long-time customers keep coming back year after year, which tells you something. If you're looking for legitimate surf instruction and equipment with people who genuinely know what they're doing, this is the place.

    Went for used board sale. They had a great selection and very helpful and friendly staff. Employees helped my wife get other supplies to go with the board we purchased and got us out on the water! Employees informed us of sale over the phone a week or two ago and many details were available through their Instagram leading up to the sale that secured us a great value.
