Less than a week left until Christmas and you haven’t quite finished your Christmas shopping yet? Don’t worry, we’ve all been there! If you’re still looking for that perfect gift for the special surfer in your life, here are a few things that made our wish list this year:
Best Stocking Stuffers
- Sticky Bumps Surf Wax Pricing starts at $2.50
Every surfer needs surf wax and this is our go-to brand. You can choose the best wax for your water temperature, board type or even get a funky Day Glo color. You can buy them in singles or packs, so the price point is perfect for a stocking stuffer or an add-on for a bigger gift. They even have their own Christmas stockings available that contain an assortment of wax, accessories, lip balm and air fresheners.
- Sun Bum Sunscreen Pricing starts at $3.99
In Florida, the sun is strong year round and sun care products are a must have. The Flohana family takes skin care very seriously and Sun Bum has been a product we’ve used in our household for years. The company itself has a super laid back vibe and houses one of its two offices in our very own Cocoa Beach!
I mean who doesn’t like getting some fun socks in their stocking on Christmas morning? If surfing monkeys aren’t what you’re looking for, Stance has a ton of other prints. Besides the variety, Stance makes a quality product that will last.
Gifts for the Groms
- Lego Sunshine Surfer Van $34.99
If you’ve got a little one that’s into building stuff and surfing, this is the gift you need to buy. This kit is a 3 in 1. Your grom can build a camper van that can also transform into a lifeguard tower or beach buggy and comes with two little surfer dudes.
- Surf Lesson $60/1 hour lesson and soft top board rental*
If the grom in your life is just starting out in the water, get him or her an experience they won’t forget. Surf lessons typically include water safety instruction and just good information to know for the beginner surfer. If you’re in the Cocoa Beach area, feel free to call us to find out more info and check out this video!
*Price will vary depending on the surf school you use
Gifts for the Surfer Girls
- Surfer Girl Wall Art Pricing starts at $31
Get the special surfer girl in your life this cool framed print to put on her wall or display on her dresser. We love the natural frame and think the 8”x10” is the perfect size, but there are other choices and sizes to choose from.
- Surf Kit $49.99
This cute kit has the essentials every surfer needs, all packaged together in a trendy compact clutch. Included are surf wax, separate was container to keep melted wax messes at bay, sunscreen face stick and lip balm. There are also different versions that would appeal to men as well.
Gifts for the Surfer Dudes
This fun t-shirt depicts how man evolved from ape to surfer. It’s bound to be a hit at Christmas and will most likely get a regular rotation in your surfer guy’s wardrobe. There are different color options, as well as options for women’s t-shirts/tanks and hoodies (since it is winter and all).
- Wet/Dry Bag $54.95
A wet/dry bag is a big MUST, especially if you live in a region in which you wear a wetsuit. A typical surf bag has a separate compartment for wet items to keep your dry items dry. They will be made of water resistant materials and have plenty of room for other items. The bag we’ve included here is a much lower price point than most, but there are plenty of options out there if you search for them.
Gifts for the Surf Crew
- Changing Poncho Pricing starts at $49.95
Every surfer has experienced the struggle of trying to change on the beach (or the parking lot, LOL) and this helps keep things PG-13 out there. This is another item that has a lot of options out there if you take the time to go through them. We selected this particular poncho because they have different sizing options (many available through other brands are one size fits all and we found some reviews complaining about sizing with those), there are solids and prints to choose from, and they’re available for every member of your family or crew.
Hopefully these ideas will help you finish your Christmas shopping and make your last minute gift not feel last minute. Happy holidays!
