Just got a new SUP from Rise Up Boards. They delivered it on time and their service was great. I would recommend them.

Opted for a carbon board at Mark's suggestion, which was definitely a smart decision.

Been dying to shop at Val Surf and heading to the airport THE GODS heard me and directed my GPS to…read morenavigate me to Val Surf. With the store in my sites I pulled a hard right without rolling the SUV I was driving and parked... Amazing surf shop for goodie , surf boards and skateboards. Grabbed my Val Surf logo sweatshirt and a weird Nike shirt cause it was kick a$$ white with hot pink drawing... Now I explored and found great surf gear from major brands I won't mention but the shoe selection was amazing, especially the VANS. The suede leather Vans were awesome and I desperately wanted a few pairs but I didn't have room in luggage.... As I was walking past UGG's display they had the sand color version and again if I had room I'd bought a pair... Super cool " Dude " handling cashier duty's was awesome. The over the top skateboard decks blew me away located behind him and I only wish I was 12 again so I pester my parents for one... we had a good laugh about age and away I went... NOTE : Speaking of killer items and this wasn't for sale was wooden shoe by Vans with images of old school pro skaters including the "Godfather of pool skating" Mr Tony Alva! For those who don't know him well he was a member of the Zephyr Competition Skateboarding Team, or the Z-Boys.... Can't wait to come back and I'll have a bigger luggage bag for more gear. But needless to say this stop was amazing and worth the wait...

I love coming here and last week I brought my cousin here. They always been helpful and frieny. The…read moreplace is clean and a lot of selection. Price is reasonable.

We had an awesome surf lesson with Nick Fowler from Aloha Brothers Surf Lessons. He found the…read moreperfect spot for us where there was nobody else out, which made the whole experience relaxed and fun right from the start. Both of my girls got up on their boards their very first time surfing. They didn't even want to come in when the lesson was over even though it was pouring down rain. Nick was patient, encouraging, and just a really good time to be around. He made the whole experience easy and memorable for our family and took great care of us the entire session. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great surf lesson, especially with kids. We'd absolutely do it again.

After my son and his friend went pretty hard on the boogie boards, I knew it was time for them to…read moregive surfing a shot. As SoCal boys, it's a right of passage. The lesson could not have been better. Aloha brothers provides wetsuits and boards as part of the lesson. The instructor, Taylor, was so kind and patient and made the lesson so fun that neither kid wanted to take a break during the 90-minute session. To put that into perspective, we had to walk three blocks with surfboards, and they required three breaks to make it through that experience. Both boys ended up being able to stand on the board and could not wait for their next lesson. My son struggles to keep doing something if it's difficult, but thanks to Taylor's encouragement, he kept failing and kept getting back up and trying again. Communication with Nick, the owner, was fantastic. The price was great for a two-person private lesson (check the website for the latest pricing).

Cool little beach a lot less crowded than Santa Monica. Not really a place you would go swimming,…read morebut great spot to hang out, go birding, and overall just enjoy the ocean. Tip: During the winter (when I went) you can find street parking along PCH. You can find some surf fisherman there as well.

Funny story. So I was searching for good beaches near me where my girlfriend and I could go to…read morewatch the sunset, and oddly enough, up comes Sunset Beach. So we go to YouTube to check out sunsets at Sunset Beach, and we saw a really pretty one, so we went! And weren't we surprised to find that the sun--in the middle of summer--sets pretty much exactly in the West (go figure), which from Sunset Beach, is over the mountains just beyond Malibu! LOL Anyway, it was still a nice getaway for the evening, and we had a relaxing evening on the beach with just a few beachgoers, and a bunch of seagulls who camped in a big circle around us, apparently approving of our choice of seats for the evening. The beach itself is nice and kept pretty clean. There are trash cans available all over the place, the lifeguards are on duty and appear to be vigilant, the parking is sufficient, but you do have to pay $5 for the day. We only saw one homeless guy, but he wasn't bothering anyone, and was just checking for recyclables in the trash cans. What more can I say about a public beach? Go! Enjoy the beach! Just check the map, or maybe head a little further South if you want a proper sunset in the summertime.

Aleks is an amazing person and incredible surf instructor. I just had my second lesson with him…read morelast week and I can't wait to go back out with him again. I have been living in LA for years and have always wanted to get into surfing. I had tried a few times in the past and it was always discouraging and intimidating. My experience with Aleks was completely different. He is so kind, and he goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable and confident. After missing a wave or falling, his encouragement and advice makes you excited to get back out and try it again. You can tell he absolutely loves surfing and that enthusiasm and joy for the sport is infectious. He makes the whole experience so painless so all you have to do is show up and focus on surfing. He has all of the equipment including wet suits, boards, snacks, and more. He is great about adapting to your skill level and the weather conditions to ensure you have the best time. I cannot recommend Aleks enough. If you've ever thought about surfing but are intimidated or unsure you'd be able to do it, Aleks is the guy for you!!!

First I want to mention that Aleks is the best instructor and person you will ever meet! So happy…read morewe were able to book our surfing lesson with him! My sister and I are beginners so we were a little nervous, but he made us feel so at ease. We love the ocean and wanted to try out the waves in Cali when we visited. Needless to say he made this experience so enjoyable and memorable. He was so patient with us and we had such a great time! We wish we lived down in Santa Monica to join his community of surfers. You can tell he is really passionate about what he does and honestly that makes all the difference! Thanks for teaching two Miami sisters how to catch some gnarly waves :) we can't wait to get back to Cali to take more lessons with Aleks. Surfing is so exhilarating. Look no further than Lipsmack Surf for your next surfing lesson! You won't regret it!!! Also, thanks for the juice boxes! :)
