Surfing Heritage and Culture Center reviews
11Very cool display and history of surfing. Loved the tour and learning about the history, especially the local surf icons.
If you care anything about surfing (or wish to call yourself a surfer), do yourself (and the curators) a solid and visit this one-of-a-kind homage to surfing, where you can see WSL championship boards and walk through the entire history of surfing from past to present. I'm from Santa Cruz, CA, where we are proud to have a small surfing museum, but it pales compared to what they have assembled here. Truly spectacular!
If you are in to the history and culture of surfing this is the place. Many community events take place here. Evidence of surfers contributing $, items, stories, to the community.
Biggest place, intersection of surfing’ past present and future great exhibits activities events and shop
Cool museum! We learned a ton about the history of surfing, surfboards, and iconic surfers. We also went for an event hosted by Groundswell and Sandy Feet Initiative.
Why aren’t more people going here? It was really cool to see the boards of Carissa Moore, John John Florence, & Tyler Wright They have so many boards and cool artifacts from surfing history. Really enjoyed visiting here!
The most comprehensive collection of surfing memorabilia on the planet. Super friendly folks that work there also.
An incredible collection of Surfboards and Surfing History / Memorabilia. Assemblage is superb in both breadth and depth. A 'Must See' for all Surfers and Beach-lovers!
We came up from San Diego for the Big Wednesday book signing. I was amazed at the number of classic boards and memorabilia on display. All of the people there were super nice and ready to answer any questions. Denny Aaberg was there to sign his book and Peter Townend was there to tell some really cool stories about the making of Big Wednesday. It was a great night and well worth the drive up from SD. Great group of dedicated people!
Incredible historic documentation of surfing history. Friendly staff and quite knowledgeable about surfing history.
