Dacane Surf Shop (5239 Blowers) has been a fixture just down the road from Pizza Corner since 1992. Their retail shop features the finest in quality swimwear and clothing by Roxy, Quiksilver and Billabong. But they are riding a new wave, as Dacane recently broadened their horizons and opened an online boutique. Instead of wasting precious waves heading downtown customers now can shop while surfing the Internet. If you are a first time surfer Dacade also offers surf camps where wave-virgins can team up with a trained surf instructor at their seasonal Lawrencetown Beach location. Don’t worry, as surfboards and wetsuits rentals are available on site. For further information contact 431-SURF (7873).
