This was our son first time taking a surfing lesson, and as an adult with special needs, he was…read moreanxious and nervous going into the session. We weren't sure how it would go, but coach Elliot made all the difference. He was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding of our son's needs. The first couple of attempts were tough- our son was nervous about riding the waves and facing the unknown. But coach Elliot never rushed him and offered steady encouragement the whole time. By the third try, everything changed- we saw a big smile on our son's face, thank you Coach Elliot for creating such a positive and supportive experience!

We were disappointed that we couldn't have the surf lesson at the beach that we were at, but when Helina called and explained that the surf was too dangerous and that safety was the first priority, I was more than satisfied to change.

This place used to have decent stuff, but now it's honestly a huge disappointment. Most of the…read moreshirts look like leftover clearance items no one wanted, and the sweaters feel like they're made from the cheapest, flimsiest material possible. The quality has clearly dropped across the board. They used to have a solid shoe selection, but now it's either picked over or just poor-quality options that don't seem worth the price. It feels like they've completely stopped caring about what they put on the shelves. The whole store has gone downhill less variety, worse quality, and nothing that stands out anymore. I used to actually enjoy coming here and could count on finding good deals on decent clothing, but now it just feels like a waste of time. Definitely not what it used to be.

Our boys (7 and 10) were first-time surfers, and thanks to Nathan and Eva's patient, encouraging, and fun instruction, they were up and surfing quickly, with huge smiles on their faces. Both instructors created a safe, relaxed environment while building the boys' confidence with clear instructions and constant encouragement. It was amazing to watch them catch wave after wave, and they are now hooked on surfing! We're so grateful to Nathan and Eva for making their first surf experience so memorable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for kind, skilled instructors who know how to connect with kids and make surfing fun from the start.

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.

I visit Huntington Beach often and stop in here from time to time to grab a shirt or some sandals. Huntington Surf and Sport has all sorts of apparel from brands like Hurley, O'Neill, Vans, Quiksilver, Billabong and Volcom. You can also rent a board for the day if you don't have your own. In front of the shop is the Surfer's Hall of Fame and a statue of surfing legend Duke Kahanamoku. The Surfer's Hall of Fame had its first inductees in 1997 and honors legends of the sport with handprints and footprints on the sidewalk. Huntington Surf and Sport will sometimes set up canopies outside to sell marked-down merchandise.
