Tynemouth Surf Co. The night this was taken, there were surfers in the sea, even though it was the beginning of December, stupidly cold and nearly dusk.

You know, the many many times I went past that shop, I never caught it open! What time was it when you took this photo? lol
It is funny you post this picture…we are in the surfing industry here in So Cal and have been in this shop once before to take a look around. I have several times tried to contact the company owner for business purposes over months with no success.
Sure is a beautiful spot and the building has lots of character.
Another quirky little shop, I love it. By sheer coincidence I found this recent picture of Tynemouth with a surfing connection on the Daily Mail website:

It made me shiver.
Hi Alf…….thanks for this photo link. My teeth began to chatter just looking at this picture…brrrr! Now that is pure dedication and love for this sport!
Jorgelina, I think it was around 4pm! Maybe they only open one day a year?!
Ash, how strange! Hopefully they’ll see this conversation and get in touch :)
Alf, thanks for that pic - it’s great! Yes Ash, it made me shiver :)
The only time I ever went surfing in the u.k was in november 96 at tyne mouth, it was night and raining , and for me (as a nocturne ) was the perfect time to be in the sea , thanks for reminding me of an amazing night !
