10 Outdoor Activities in Melbourne Beach That You Shouldn't Miss

We start our tours with a short instruction session on shore, then work with you while out on the water to ensure you are getting the most out of your experience. We provide bottled water, a small snack and take lots of digital photos while we are out on the water. We modify our routes to account for wind conditions and where we've been seeing wildlife. We paddle in the mangroves off the main Indian River Lagoon, which provides us with rich wildlife and bird sightings. We never guarantee manatee or dolphins will be in our area, since they are wild animals. But, we try to go to areas where we have seen them in the past few days. We launch from a privately owned boat ramp off of A1A and Old Florida Trail rd. The launch facility has bathrooms, plenty of parking and is well maintained. In addition, the facility is listed as a Florida Historical Site.

As the closest surf shop to Florida's most famous surf spot, we try to bring the vibe of a Costa Rican hideaway to the Atlantic shores of Florida. Situated between the ocean and the Indian River Lagoon, we teach comprehensive surf lessons, rent surfboards, SUPs, fat bikes & other gear and have an outdoor training area we feel is completely unique. We stock local brands, support local artists and musicians and are heavily involved in the local community. We work closely with Surfrider Foundation, the Barrier Island Sanctuary, the Friends of Sebastian Inlet State Park volunteer group and the Brevard County high school surf teams. We also have a store within a store in Archive Books and Records, a resource for vinyl, CDs and vintage books. All in all, our goal is to live up to our calling card as "A surf shop like no other."
