    Recently purchased a Starboard Twinz LS from Covewater. Working with Olivier is great! I live on the East Coast in Virginia Beach. Olivier walked me through the purchase and shipping process and he remained engaged the whole time, keeping me updated and then calling to make sure I got the board safe and sound. Olivier is customer oriented and he has a passion for the sport as he described the board and its characteristics. The whole experience was stress free and the board is awesome! I highly recommend Covewater, whether local or long distance!!

    I had a great experience ordering fins I needed for my Starboard surf paddleboard from Covewater. The owner helped me choose the right fins for my individual needs and shipping was quick. If you need to order any accessories for your boards, I definitely recommend them. Mahalo! 🤙

    I have been surfing my whole life, but started SUP surfing on small days for better exercise. Now, I SUP surf most days, and I have become a lot more selective about the SUPs I ride. Covewater is amazing because Olivier has a huge selection (something rare for a Central Coast SUP shop) of really high quality and high performance boards. I bought my last 2 boards from Olivier, and have been stoked on both of them. Most recently I got a 7'11" F1 PAPENOO, and the thing rips at my local beach break. As far as I am concerned, there is no other option— Olivier is the go to guy for knowledge, experience, and stoke.

    Covewater rocks! The staff really went above and beyond not only thoughtfully helping with board selection but also ensuring a safe delivery of the board. The team checked in with me regularly while my board shipped across the country and made sure it arrived in perfect shape. Couldn't be happier with the choice and would recommend working with Covewater any day of the week!
