Surfing offers a fun way to soak up some rays as you improve your balance, flexibility, and endurance. If you need a new board or wetsuit before riding the waves, several surf shops near our apartments in San Diego have you covered. They include:

South Coast Surf Shop

Founded in 1974, the South Coast Surf Shop has grown to become Southern California's premier store of its type. The models have been team tested and refined through customer feedback. The staff loves taking to the water and helping everyone discover a passion for surfing. The varied selection includes surfboards, wetsuits, and surfboard fins. To save time, shop online, and your order will arrive at your door.

Emerald City Surf Shop

Brothers Kelly and Larry Kraus have surfed around the world. They befriended industry greats along the way and dreamed of opening their own surf store. They achieved their dream in 1988 when the Emerald City Surf Shop opened its doors. It is operated by surfers and offers high-quality gear and a price-matching policy, so you always receive the best deal. In addition, the shop also provides rentals at the lowest prices on Coronado Island.

Found in San Diego's Little Italy neighborhood, the Atacama Surf Shop features boards by local shapers. It "strives to constantly redesign and reconstruct" and collaborates with both emerging artists and longtime visionaries. Along with the surfboards, the shop also includes fins, wetsuits, board bags, and much more. Visit the store in person, or order online for convenient shipping.
