We had our very first surfing experience this weekend, and Tommy was amazing! ‍…read moreThe three of us (mom, dad, and our 10-year-old daughter) were all at different levels, but Tommy knew exactly how to help each of us improve. We all managed to stand up on our very first try! Thank you so much again, Tommy! We would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a great surf lesson. Your explanations, tips, and patience were amazing!

I originally left a good review for your business on Google because my experience was nice. While…read morein the water I heard an instructor call my friend a BBW and I was a bit confused by the exchange. After talking to my friend and reading the response left by the business owner I am voicing that I DID hear Dave call her that. He yelled it twice to her. Jay - you were not there there how can you vouch for Dave? It's pretty low of you to try and clap back at someone who left an honest review. Take a step back and reevaluate how you want to go about this. Constructive criticism can help your business grow.

They immediately offered to help, checked in the back for additional board options, and took the time to educate us on how to progress to the next board as our skills improve. They also explained how to properly care for and carry the board, which was incredibly helpful as beginners. They quickly installed the fins and leash for us and even helped make sure the board would fit in our car before we left. We will definitely be back when it's time to upgrade to our next board, and we may even return for a skateboard as well. We highly recommend this shop and will absolutely be referring our friends and family.

I took all of my family to Banzai Surf School after I read the reviews in a recent vacation to HB…read more Being land locked here in Colorado, surfing is something I've always wanted to try. Jaz and his crew were excellent surf instructors to my two daughters and wife! Even though we won't be ready for the waves of the North Shore anytime soon, these guys are an excellent school! We had Dave and Bryce as our instructors and these guys knew how to teach some rookies from Colorado. The experience with Banzai was one of the biggest highlights of our vacation! Thanks guys for making this experience special!

I've been shopping at Surfside for decades, since they were on the peninsula. By far still the best…read moreshop around for surf/skate/snow. Stopped in to look at a new snowboard yesterday and ended up with a rad new setup. John in the skate/snow section was super helpful and so was everyone else. It reminded why I used to always get my gear from Surfside. While we were there my son grabbed a skate deck from the $40 bin. Ended up back at Surfside today to build his deck up and had awesome service again. 10/10 service 10/10 vibe 10/10 value Surfside is by far the best neighborhood shop around!

I was just a girl looking for something fun to do at the beach other than perfecting my tan...Then…read moreit hit me...I'll learn to surf!!! When I told my friends of my new project, they suspected that I might have been suffering from Heat Stroke... ..."you are not a strong swimmer"... ..."you're afraid of the water"... ..."I know you're stupid; but this is crazy!"... Undeterred by the critics, I pressed forward. A google search for surf instructors delivered the names of Dan, Jason, and Graham. I decided to take the plunge and take up surfing under the tutelage of Dan, Jason, and Graham soon to be known to me collectively as the "Surf Studs"... Now my friends were right about a few things, I am not a strong swimmer and I was a little afraid...The "Studs" quickly picked up on my trepidation and showed great patience, understanding, and compassion, Dan is even a trained lifeguard! My fears of death by surfing sank to the ocean floor LOL Eventually, due to the skill and care of the "studs" I was able to stand up on my board...Catch a wave...and bring it to the shore... So if you're like me, looking for something to heighten your beach experience, consider surfing, and consider Dan, Jason, and Graham, "The Surf Studs"! They will treat you right and teach you right! If you want proof about the "Studs", go to the beach and look for the girl with the perfect tan riding the waves...and I'll tell you more.

Right around the corner from our Airbnb, I was STOKED to see a Jack's! My family are big big fans…read moreof Jack's in San Clemente and look forward to shopping there every year for that trip, so I was stoked about this. This Jack's is split into two almost separate spots, with women's being on one side and men's being on the other. This one definitely had a smaller selection of Rainbow flipflops than what I was used to at the other Jack's location. Which was totally fine. My sister wanted a pair so it was very limited of which ones they had. Thus, I found some for her, but yeah, that was a bit disappointing. BUT I did get a really cute sweatshirt for half off. They always have good deals for sure! It was only $25 for it. We also got baby boy a t-shirt he will have to grow into haha. But of course he needed one! We came back the next day to get my husband something, too. He wanted a t-shirt, too. We also got a towel for $5 since we spent over $100 which was pretty cool. Definitely will be bringing that to the beach next year. The girl that checked us out was nice, but I didn't really see any other staff walking around to help people out even though it was pretty busy.

****A ton of stuff and cheap!****…read more This store is huge and the amount of stuff they have is tremendous. You won't get much customer service here and it may take you time to find your sizes or something you like...but his place is like hitting pay dirt. They also have tents outside in the parking lot. We have gotten so many great things for $10, $5, and even $1!! We usually spend at least an hour when we come looking for things. It is not very well organized inside but you will figure it out. We have purchased everything including fins, dresses, shirts, rash guards, sunglasses, blankets, hats, sunscreen, shorts and bathing suits. They have a few dressing rooms so you can try stuff on. Overall, this is the best place to come to get gear and very decent prices. Just bring plenty of time and patience and you should be able to find stuff you like.

Selection was OK. Of course you have to dig to find anything real good. But it's a hit or miss but…read morelove the outlet.
