From the owner: Layton Surf Co. Story Our story is simple. Our Family has…read morealways loved going to local surf shops when we would go on vacation and during our summers in Ocean City, MD. We have always talked about what our Surf Shop would look like if we ever opened one and what brands we would create. So, after years of dinner time conversations we decided to go ahead and do it! Each one of our children developed their own brand. Alyssa helped develop our lead brand for Layton Surf Company. Christian came up with Country Surf. Country Surf is a lifestyle brand that combines beach and the beach country music vibe. Hence Country Surf's Moto "Surf, Sand and Song". Zachary came up with Water Sports Performance Gear, or WPG for short. Zachary loves all things you can do on the water, fishing, kayaking, SUP, jet skis, etc. This brand does not just focus on fishing, but anything related to water sports. Somer created Summer Skye which is our ladies surf style brand. Summer Skye's motto is "Ocean, Sky, Earth." Somer would often go into other surf shops and notice that there are not many options for girls, so she has set out to change that. We hope you have enjoyed our story and look forward to seeing you soon!

I used to shop at Ron Jon's when I lived closer to the east coast. Being that I haven't been there…read morein awhile I wasn't sure what to expect. Note I did check out a few other "surf" shops in OCMD that were quite frankly a hot mess and junky. The outside and inside was very pristine and well kept. I love all the brands Oakley, Costa, Rip Curl, etc. The staff was pretty nice. I did buy a Ron Jon pop socket for my phone. Probably overpaid for a Ron Jon logo one but alas I'm from the West Coast and I thought it was cool. When I got back home I found a cute Ron Jon sticker they put in my bag. Clean, Organized and nice upscale merchandise.

I'm not going to lie, I'm the wrong person to do a review for a place like this so whatever I write…read moretake with a grain of a grain of salt. YMMV. The last two times we've been to OCMD my Old Lady wanted to come to Ron Jon on some sort of nostalgia trip since the last time she had been to one was thirty-ish years ago at a long since closed location somewhere in NJ. My take on what they sell here...Hard No. If you're into pastels, bold colors, more cut off shirts then Larry the Cable Guy owns, loud prints and logoed corporate merch then I guess you might be good here. But, if you're an anti-consumer like myself, you'll last about three minutes before your eyes will roll back in your head like a shark chomping down on a harbor seal waiting for the deliverance of leaving. The staff we encountered was very nice and they answered a question or two my wife asked regarding the few trinkets she wanted. If you're into stuff or the types of things Ron Jon sells, then you'll love it here. If not...

From the welcoming dog bowl ready for any passing pup, to the attentive staff greeting you as you enter, to the epic local merch for Bethany Beach... we always enjoy when we stop here during our stroll up and down the Main Street of town. With a wide selection of name brand surf clothing and beach gear, you can be assured to find something that you need or just something that you want to remember your trip by. I have purchased all of my Reef sandals from here over the years... it is nice to try on what you are buying and to check out the latest trends. Even with Size 15 shoes, they always have plenty of sizes and options for me too! I LOVE their Bethany Beach merch. An homage to the towns totem pole and a cool drawing of the Main Street with noted icons of the town! The price is great too! Always nice to support a local shop and enjoy the vacation vibes of Bethany Beach.

So, the lessons are free but you have to pay a small fee to rent the surf board. For the four of us the total with taxes was $63. What a bargain!! The instructors led a 20 minute training session on the beach then we got into the water. They helped us get comfortable and pushed us into some waves. Their instructions were great and they sincerely cared about us standing on the boards, cheering anytime someone made it. This is a must for family bonding!!
