Peculiar, a surf shop selling all the things any sea-faring, wave-surfer could need. The exterior certainly brightens up Kellaway Avenue, blue and yellow certainly remind you of sun, sea, sand, and surf but it slightly falls short of transporting you to the salty air of the seaside. I would think the shop would be more fitting situated near the harbour at least, where there is some water in sight. That said, the shop is always bustling and seems to do very good business. Probably because there is such a vast selection of goods for anybody wanting to hit the beach. It is not an elitist shop only there to serve surf enthusiasts willing to spend over £100 on a dry suit. The shop sells swimwear, goggles, flippers and sun cream. A perfect place to go if you want summer seaside attire, without the pricey cost.

Ah the sound of seagulls over head. The smell of pasties, ice cream and the feel of salt spray in the air. It’s great to be beside the seaside… wait, we’re in Redland. For me BeachShack has to be one of the most peculiar placements for a surf shop I have ever seen — a block of sexy bright yellows and blues on a street of otherwise fairly standard inner city shops. Having said that, it works. The shop fits in, is always busy and yep — I dig it. Anything you could possibly need in the world of surf, beach and water sports can be picked up here. If you’re a serious windsurfer looking to completely revamp your kit or just a sun chaser looking for a sexy new bikini — you will receive the same level of expert customer service and value for money. Reef sandals, dry suits, rash vests and so much more — just no Devonshire ice cream.

Beachshack stocks all kinds of surf clothing, sandals, wetsuits, boardshorts and bikinis. It’s well sized store stretching over two floors. Anything you need for a holiday at the beach you can get here. They seem to very often have sales on so take advantage and grab some beach bargains.
