Renting a Surfboard in Phuket

Phuket surf is seasonal, warm and usually pretty friendly, but the board still matters. The wrong board can turn a fun little wave into a lot of work.

If you are still learning, a stable soft top is usually the best choice. If the waves are small and slow, a longboard can be the difference between catching waves and just floating around waiting for something magical to happen.

We rent boards from the shop and help you choose something suitable for your level, the swell, and where you are planning to surf that day.
