Tambos Surf Shack / locAL is a super sick place and a straight up locAL joint. It is a family owned and run surf and skate shack that is truly one of a kind. The business is way more than just a shop, combining a great surf and skate shop with great apparel, a coffee shop, and a lil indoor skate park under one roof. The vibe is right, offering an amazing place and environment.
The owners are completely knowledgeable, helpful, supportive, and absolutely awesome. They are the epitome of skate and surf culture, treating everyone like family and taking care of you. They are dedicated to helping others, offering advice on everything from skating and surfing to moving to the area. The establishment plays a detrimental role in the community, offering Surf and Skate camps for the youth to learn, participate, and form connections.
It is a highly recommended spot to check out, whether you are looking for everything you need for surfing and skateboarding, a place to work remotely, or just a cool community venue. You will feel like you are at home and you won’t be disappointed.
Hands Down best surf and skate shop in the Alabama beach areas! Great spot to get your surf and skate accessories along with getting a little skate session in! Tambos is awesome!
