    Outstanding shop! The team is professional and friendly. We have supported North Shore Surf Shop for many years. Liam is an advocate for the community

    Honestly these guys are the best! If you want to support local, and have a great experience make sure to hit them up for all your snorkle & surf board, rentals! They have the best prices but they also give you all the tips and tricks to ensure you have the best day on the water. The first time we visited this location was in 2018. We wanted local surf lessons, & there was no one available at the time. So they called a local friend & he drove all the way out to meet us and we had an amazing time. So we've only gone back here for every visit! They definitely go above and beyond & are the kindest staff on the island.

    We had such a wonderful experience at North Shore Surf Shop, and it was all thanks to Christian. From the moment we walked in, he greeted us right away with a huge smile and so much enthusiasm. It was our first time visiting the island, and he immediately made us feel welcome. When we mentioned we were new to the area, he walked us over to the map and took the time to explain the different spots around the North Shore and where we should go. Christian was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many helpful tips and pointers. You could tell he truly knew what he was talking about, and he explained everything in a way that made us feel confident and excited to explore. He really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience and left the shop feeling prepared. The most impressive part is that we later found out he had just started working there and is only 17 years old. The level of professionalism, knowledge, and genuine kindness he showed at such a young age is remarkable. The owners of North Shore Surf Shop are very lucky to have him on their team, and we wanted to make sure his effort didn't go unnoticed. The shop itself has everything you need for a fun day exploring the island. We rented snorkel gear for $20 each for the day, which was such a great deal. We also added life vests for $10 each, which gave us extra peace of mind while we were out in the water. They also have lockers available for $10, which was super convenient for storing our belongings while we were out snorkeling. The entire rental and return process was very smooth and seamless. We're so glad we stopped in and even happier that we met Christian. He truly made the experience memorable. Mahalo!

    Store side - watch the sunset from here!

    Tim and his guys know Sharks Cove! Great rental spot and located right where the snorkeling action happens! They give great advice and rental prices are fair! We ended up needing to switch my daughter's size and they were so kind and gracious and helped us without any problems. They have lots of rental gear and also gear for purchase! They also have reef safe sunscreen incase you forget to bring some! I would definitely recommend grabbing snorkeling gear here for the day!

    Beach right across from rental shop.

    Would come here again for snorkeling equipment. Family owned business. They are very helpful and have reasonable prices. Right across from sharks cove and located with other small businesses

    Best coconut water, very refreshing after a walk! ‍

    Best coconut water ever, very refreshing in hot and humid weather' especially after a beach day. Highly recommend!! ‍‍

    The people here are AMAZING!! The boards are so nice so cool and sooooooooooooooooo swag!

    The coconuts we purchased.

    Surf N Sea...YES PLEASE! My husband and I were looking to…read morerent a kayak on the North Shore, and Surf N Sea popped up in my search. Not only are the prices reasonable, but the service is great too. They made sure we had everything we needed for our kayaking adventure. We didn't need instruction as we're experienced, but it was nice to know that it was offered if needed. They also rent SUP's. The actual Surf N Sea store has SO MUCH stuff...clothes, swimwear, flip flops, and more. They even sell water and sodas. Plus, they have a bathroom. Not sure if it's for everyone, but they offered it to us she once we were going to kayak. The service in here is great too! If in the area, stop in Surf N Sea, you'll find everything you need and more!

    Surf N Sea is a classic Haleiwa staple that specializes in all things ocean activities! You can…read morerent gear for surfing, stand up paddle boarding, snorkeling, freediving, scuba, and even kayaking. They even offer lessons and tours. If you're looking to do any water activities and don't have the gear, this is a great spot on the North Shore. I mostly come here to shop, they have all the best surf / beach brands. Which is great since most surf brands have closed down their physical locations. They have racks on racks of awesome swimsuits and clothes. I love looking through all of their surf competition shirts. I think the last time we bought a surf comp shirt we even got the matching poster for free! I also bought my short fins here and was able to find a really cute pair. The service here was super nice and helpful when looking for a pair of fins. Now I'm in the market for longer freediving fins and this is the spot I'm gonna check out the next time I'm in Haleiwa.
