A Surf Shop for Beginners That Actually Gets You
The Wee Surf Shoppe is a surf shop for beginners who want more than just overpriced gear and influencer hype. It’s where honesty meets usefulness—with a little sarcasm and a lot of thought. Whether you’re still figuring out your stance or just need a surf-safe zinc that doesn’t cost your soul, this shop was made with you in mind.
Run by the folks behind The Wipeout Weekly, we built this shop because we were tired of being told we needed $200 ponchos and five boards to get started. We only list products we actually use, genuinely love, or that have been wildly praised by our community. No secret sponsors. No weird markups. Just surf stuff for the rest of us.
The Wee Surf Shoppe is home to our Surf Pantry (budget-friendly essentials), Surf Indulgences (the beautiful, possibly unnecessary things), Surf Giftables (fun, fast gifts for your surfy friends), and of course, Da Merch—our own gear, made for kooks, foamies, and the Bandana Crew.
You’ll also find the occasional product review—honest, sometimes brutal, always beginner-focused. If we review something and it’s still usable (like, we didn’t destroy it trying to open it with reef rash hands), it goes into our weekly raffle. We don’t hoard. We don’t gatekeep. We definitely don’t have storage space.
Some items come with homemade hacks. Some link to affiliate products. Some make us money. Some don’t. But if it’s in the shop, it’s because we think it deserves to be.
If you’re looking for a beginner-friendly surf shop that doesn’t assume you’re rich, ripped, or rad—The Wee Surf Shoppe is here for you.
Start in the Surf Pantry or browse Da Merch. We add new items regularly—some practical, some delightful, all selected with love (and maybe a little laughter).
We believe surfing should feel possible, not exclusive. That’s why we built this shop—to support every kook, cold-water learner, and sandy-toed dreamer who just wants to surf more, spend smart, and feel less alone doing it.
