Surf-N-Wear’s Beach House

This used to be a favorite until we called in and asked if the store was open and got a «no» with a hang up. Who does that? We’ve shipped here for years. You name it surf boards, wetsuits, clothes, sunglasses and watches.

I’ve had nothing but a positive experience every time I’ve been in the Beach House. The customer service has always been great. The employees there have a chill vibe and always willing to go the extra mile to help out. For example, I was just in today and need to send a wetsuit back for some repairs, Demi took the time to help me out and made sure she was giving me the correct information by confirming a couple of things with the manager (tall guy, legs tats) who was also awesome. Thanks Beach House! You guys rock!

You guys are the best. Everything I could have been looking forward to hit the beach or go surfing is in your place. And then I was directed to the incomparable Demi. I was about to give up on what I was looking for which was waterproof shoes to wear walking in the ocean and there wasn’t much of a selection in the size that I wear and just as I was starting to walk away somehow she had thought of something and went digging around in some box of March and found exactly what I was looking for and I bought it instantly. Also she’s a pretty good surfer and it was very cool to talk to her about what’s going on in the area. I hope if she ever comes up this way show ping me in Unilocal until me she’s on her way out so I can return the favor and show you where some good sets are up here. Like she needs my help haha. The store was really nice everybody that work there seem to be people that love what they do I mean how can you not be happy working in a place that caters to the beach crowd. Happy people happy beaches. So I am one very satisfied customer thank you young lady for helping me out I appreciate it.

I love this place! Walk right down off of the pier and the first place you come up on, on your right, going up State street is this little surf bungalow hang out. I stop in, check out the flip flops, then shirts and board shorts, accessories at the counter are always cool, new and fun. Been here a million times and hope to go here a million more!

A lot of random odds and ends in this shop. Some good brands– normal prices. They need cooler shop tees, they were pretty lame. Cooler shops along state street to be honest. Parking was horrible only 3 spots.

The surf shop was a great experience for us. The prices are reasonable, the people who work there are very friendly and helpful, and most of all, their merchandise is fantastic!

Very rude people working here, never greeted me, was going to spend 150 on some sunglasses but they never even looked at me or gave me the time of day, so I left. Would never enter this store again. Employees should learn people and customer service skills.

Rudest staff I have ever come in contact with! Young, pale guy that I assume was the manager get should be fired. Worst attitude and when I asked the price of something talked to me like I was an idiot! Never going back

My husband spotted something on the shelf which he had been checking online for the last few months. He finally decided to purchase it, and asked a guy how much it was. The price was $ 80 more than what he had seen online.
The guy was the owner and after checking the price on their website which was listed by mistake, he said,
«Well, this price is incorrect, but it is our fault, so I will honor it.»
There would have been several different ways for a business to handle this situation. How he handled it that day makes us want to come back and spend more money at his store.

I’ve been a fan since my junior high days when I got my rainbow lightening bolt thongs (sandals). They have great clothes, jewelry, surfboards, and pretty much anything beachy. Albeit, their prices reflect the State Street beach front real estate, I still like to shop here.

Before our honeymoon, Matt B. owned exactly one pair of swim trunks, which he used, primarily, to shower our dog. We decided to do a little shopping, and Beach House served us well.
The selection was huge, with tons of swim trunks in his size. We chose something like a dozen before retiring to the fitting room. Matt tried them all on and most of them looked great. We settled on a few pairs of varying length, pattern, color, etc. We were happy with all of them. I also made Matt get a gray short-​sleeved button-​down with little black polka dots. It might be the most fashionable thing he owns? He’s thirty and Beach House is a surf shop, so that is probably not a good thing.
Matt made great use of his suits on our honeymoon, and I was pleased with the way my new husband looked. I’d recommend Beach House as a comprehensive swimwear shop, at least for all the men.

Excellent selection of Beach Wear, the best in Santa Barbara. Yater Surfboards Showroom.
If you looking for that unique gift from Santa Barbara look no more, Yater T Shirts/​Sweatshirts, Owl T Shirts/​Sweatshirts and of course the Beach House line a real deal gift from a real place
Super selection of Antique Surfboards on display for your enjoyment!
Friendly helpful staff!

Great stuff

This is where my husband bought his first wetsuit. The guy who assisted us was friendly and helpful. We did not feel rushed nor pressured to buy anything I thought prices were pretty reasonable.

Great surf shop in SB! They have a huge selection of clothes, surf boards, gear ect. They have racks outside that have 50% off and good quality too! Go and support local business’s. Great location near the harbor. Walking distance to places to eat shop ect.

My wife was stoked to get a new pair of sandals here at a fairly good price seeing as the ones she was wearing along the beach were falling apart.
So close to the wharf, I would expect to get reamed for beachwear because of the convenience. But, new flip-​flops didn’t set us back an arm or a leg, and the service was quite good for a busy place. Works for me!

I hit this place every single time I’m in Santa Barbara. I love walking State Street, and this is where my shopping begins. The Yader boards are so incredibly beautiful, and the place is so well done, with boards overhead and the smell of the ocean indoors. Great place to shop if you love surfer clothing. The people working there don’t hound you, but are more than willing to help you with anything if asked.

I really enjoyed this shop.
There is a lot of surf this and surf that… gear, wear, and good eye candy.
Picked up a good souvenir for Gary, and for Mom and Dad.
The prices were typical for a place like this type of shop, but not overpriced for the area.
Did I mention good eye candy here?

Pretty extensive surf shop, the prices are pretty reasonable considering the store itself seems geared towards the tourist.
It’s fun to guy-​watch here. Hawt.
