Opens early. Incredibly helpful. - Matt opens earlier than any other surf shop in the area, perfect for morning surf sessions and beating the crowds. He was incredibly friendly and helpful. Even helped us rig... read more the rental boards to our car and gave us great advice. Would 100% recommend him and will be seeing him again.

  PHENOMENAL - I had the most incredible experience with 369 Surf and can’t recommend them enough. I recently moved to California to start a new job as a dentist near San Clemente... read more and wanted to finally learn how to surf. I called Matt on a Friday just asking about surfboard rentals, and he completely went above and beyond.
Not only did he get me set up with the perfect board, but he also arranged private lessons and even connected me with full wetsuits for insanely affordable prices. Ricky was my instructor and he was phenomenal — patient, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. He taught me so much and genuinely set me up to be able to go out and surf on my own with confidence.
Matt and Ricky didn’t just give lessons — they welcomed me into the surf community, hooked me up with great local connections, and made the whole experience feel effortless and fun. They are some of the chillest, kindest, most genuine people you’ll meet, and they truly care about getting you started the right way.
If you’re new to surfing, new to the area, or just want a great experience with great people, 369 Surf is the place. Couldn’t be more grateful I found them.

  Awesome! 100% recommend. - Awesome experience - 100% recommend! Matt was so welcoming and his help
Made my extended weekend stay in San Clemente just fabulous!

First, he arranged a lesson with John,... read more who was an excellent instructor and also a fount of local knowledge.

At the end of one lesson, I understood where to surf for my level, the sight lines to the beach for the breaks, and I felt confident enough to rent the same equipment and get out there on the water for the next 3 days.

Matt was super organized and professional in his communications - recommend to start be giving him a call when you want to surf in San Clemente area! He had excellent followup at every stage over text.
