Since 1982, Hanalei Surf Co. has proudly served as the place to go when you need high-quality skate, surf, and beach gear. Set near Hanalei Bay in North Shore Kauai, this little shop gives you a chance to buy or rent all the gear needed to kickstart your island adventures. They even take the guesswork out of the equation by recommending the right item types and sizes, so you’re always ready for what lies ahead.
To start your shopping journey, you’ll need to waltz on over to the Old Hanalei School and meander into the surf shop. Although that surely sounds like an easy feat, the scent of classic Hawaiian food wafting out of the nearby restaurants might lead you astray. Once you manage to get into the surf shop, you’re golden, so just stay strong and come inside.
Upon landing in Hanalei Surf Co, the staff will send friendly alohas your way and inquire about what brought you in. You can either let them know what you need and see if they have any suggestions or elect to browse on your own. Either way, be sure to spend time looking through all their items to find just the right gear and apparel for your needs.
If you’re only on the island for a short while, browse their rental gear to get the items you need for waterside fun. They have short, mid-size, and long surfboards plus soft top boards and bodyboards. They also have snorkel gear if you prefer to take a long look under the surface of the water. Want to just chill on the beach in style? Just rent a couple of beach chairs instead and you’re good to go.
