Real Surf Shop

I didn’t purchase anything but the customer service and vibe at Real Surf is great! Seems like a core surf shop with a friendly vibe. If you’re in the area and need any gear check them out.

Rented a suit there ,which was super cheap, but wasn't the most watertight, but worked. The girl who worked there was just beautiful, and would love for her to be my future wife. If ever in Monterey, hit me up.

Rented wetsuits here couple times. Nice people and friendly dogs working here. Check the zip before renting, just in case.

Shawn was awesome and hooked it up for my sister and I while we were in Oceanside for a few days. Great vibes in the shop and had some amazing food recommendations.

I’ve always seen many of their comical posts on Instagram, so I decided to head down to Real Surf Shop in Oceanside to what it’s all about.

Located off the main road 101, Real Surf is an Oceanside shop that caters to all of your surfing needs. It’s where you can rent your board, wetsuit, wax; the works and hit the water (which is just a couple of blocks down the road).
I don’t surf, but I could see that their board inventory was extensive and their customer service was knowledgeable and superfriendly.

But the apple of my eye was definitely their clothing line!!
Real Surf Shop has the BEST locally-themed clothing inventory in the city.
I’m not talking about generic, tourist-styled designs with “Oceanside” on them.
I’m talking about some very witty, comical logos and designs that are indicative & representative of life in Oceanside.
If you’re an Osider or city local, you NEED to get one of their shirts, tanks, hoodies or hats.

Some Logos Include:
“Keep Oside Real”
“Localization Not Gentrification”
and
“Oside Takes Care of its Own”
All of these should resonate with an Osider.

Even more importantly, the staff is down-to-earth and truly care about their community.
They give back to and are representative to the spirit of the Oceanside Community Unity.

So, whether it’s for your surfing needs or just to get a unique shirt that shows you love Oceanside, The Real Surf Shop is where it’s at!
