For surf shops and schools

Put your shop in front of surfers who are new in town

SurfKit is mainly used by people on holiday looking for a surf shop, board hire or a lesson. Your listing is free, and every shop can make it look good without paying.

Our rule: every shop can look good for free. Paying only ever buys extra visibility.

Opening hours with a clear “Open now”, your address and a map pin.

Services and prices

Tags for hire, lessons and more, plus packages with prices for rentals and lessons.

Call, WhatsApp, directions, website, Facebook and Instagram: only the ones you use.

How surfers see you

On the map and on your own page

Surfers find you on the map, swipe through the shop cards and open your page. Your whole name and every service tag show on the card, so they know straight away whether you hire boards or teach.

Shop details never come from OpenStreetMap. They come from you, your website and open data from the Overture Maps Foundation.

Questions

For shop owners

How much does a listing cost?

Nothing. Listing, claiming and every listing tool are free. Only extra visibility, like Boost, will be paid.

My shop is listed with wrong details

Claim it and fix it yourself, or email SurfKit.hello@gmail.com. We aim to reply within 24 hours, and we correct or remove the listing if the details are wrong or the request comes from the business.

Can I have my shop removed?

Yes. Email us from the business and we’ll remove it.

What does “Unverified” mean?

The shop is listed from its website or open data, but the owner hasn’t claimed it yet. Claim it to get the blue tick.

Do you take bookings?

Not yet. Surfers contact you directly by phone, WhatsApp, email or a hire or lesson request. Booking may come later, once shops are on board.
