Mollusk Surf Shop

Opened by husband-wife team John McCambridge and Johanna St. Clair over a decade ago, this artsy-cool surf shop is still one of the best places in San Francisco to find boards, gear, clothes and sundries like surf zines and sunscreen. The whimsical bi-level space in the Outer Sunset is decked out in colorful area rugs, globe paper lanterns and tree-houses by local designer Jay Nelson. Among their wares, you’ll find hundreds of boards by shapers like Christenson, Campbell Brothers, Tanner and Gary Hanel. The couple also sells their own line of in-house clothing, including tees, button-downs, board shorts and laid-back dresses. For a bargain, don't miss the room full of used boards in back.
