🏄 Surfing: walk right to the waves

  • We’re one block from the beach — carry your board straight to the sand
  • Bay Street, a popular local break, is just out front and a little south
  • Ask us about today’s conditions before you head out
  • Or take the board to other beautiful beaches north in Malibu — we’ll set you up!

Stand Up Paddle: take it on a road trip

You can carry a SUP down to the beach… just bring your muscles. They’re big and awkward to haul. On a date? Guys, here’s your chance to be the hero and carry her board too. 💪

Our tip: let us strap it to your car

  • We’ll tie the boards down securely on your roof
  • You get our list of beautiful Pacific Palisades & Malibu beaches where you can park steps from the water
  • Malibu has many, many gorgeous beaches — worth a half-day or full-day trip. We’ll help you plan it.
  • Start your rental early to beat the wind — it’s the enemy of SUPs (especially in spring and summer)

Strapped, packed and ready for Malibu.
