Haleiwa Surf N Sea is located right on the water in historic Haleiwa Town on Oahu. It offers what seems to be the most extensive array of gear for just about anything ocean-related:  surfing, swimming, stand up paddling, body boarding and snorkeling. Surfboards for sale and for rent are offered, as well as surf wax, wetsuits, leashes and a huge selection of women's clothing and accessories.

Sales at Surf N Sea are always located out front on the porch, and taking a look at them could definitely save you some money. They usually have a wide array of surfboards on sale, so if you're looking to purchase one just for vacation it's smart to save some money with a sale. You can also rent surfboards and dive gear here, which is the best option when visiting.

Perhaps the biggest allure here for women is the enormous selection of bathing suits. This is where the local girls go to have varied options for cute bikinis. And with all of the beautiful beaches just minutes away, it makes sense to bikini-shop.

The staff is knowledgeable about surfing and can advise you of the best spots to go to when renting a board and learning to surf. Although the store usually doesn't deviate from the norm when it comes to prices for popular surf gear, the sale racks can be more affordable.  The shop is conveniently open from 9 am to 7 pm daily.
