Men’s Surf Sandals, Reef & Quiksilver Flip Flops

Surf sandals are pretty much standard beach equipment. Reef and Quiksilver are the main surf brands here, with a few other beach sandal options further down the page for people who just want something comfortable between the shop, beach and bar.

Reef, Quiksilver & Beach Sandals for Surf and Travel

I’ve put the main surf brands first, especially Reef and Quiksilver. Some are classic flip flops, some are cushioned slides, and some are better for walking than others. Check sizing carefully, because sandals are another one of those things that should be simple, but somehow aren’t.
