About

Made for surfers on the move

SurfKit is built around one question: where’s the nearest good surf shop? It’s for holidays, surf trips and new beaches, where you don’t know the locals yet.

What SurfKit is

SurfKit is a surf app for iPhone, iPad and Android. It puts surf shops, board hire and lessons on one map, gives each shop a clear page with the ways to reach it, and adds the things surfers need around a session: a journal, a roadmap for your progress, surf news and AI help with boards, breaks and trips.

Finding and contacting shops is free and always will be. SurfKit Pro is an optional subscription for the AI tools, the roadmap and the trip tools. Shops list for free too, and only ever pay for extra visibility.

Who makes it

SurfKit is made in the UK by Oliver Edwards, trading as SurfKit. The plan is to move the app into a limited company later; we’ll update these pages when that happens.

Meet George

George is SurfKit’s mascot: a crab in a Hawaiian shirt who surfs, reads the news, gives lessons and occasionally gets confused. You’ll find him all over the app.

How we work

  • Shop details come from the shops. From the businesses, their own websites and open data from the Overture Maps Foundation, never from OpenStreetMap.
  • No adverts. Sponsored articles are always labelled.
  • Privacy first. Your journal is private, and the AI never gets your name or email. See the privacy policy.
  • Built a page at a time. Each screen is improved one at a time, so nothing changes all at once.
