Catalyst Shop - Melbourne Beach, Florida

Excellent board selection and customer service! You can get any Lost board model on the catalyst shop website at a really good price with cheap shipping, including their old models like the puddle jumper and bean bag. I ordered a board online and it got damaged during shipping. Cam was awesome in handling the situation, with great communication and I’m very happy with the resolution. Highly recommend!!

These guys/gals are fantastic. We were missing a set of fins for a recently purchased surfboard and they were kind enough to mail them out with 2nd day air. They arrived a few minutes ago and we are stoked. Just in time for our big surf trip. Thank you for the fast response, we truly appreciate it. You’ve made a customer for life.

Fantastic Surf Shop with Exceptional Customer Service

I've been a loyal customer of Catalyst Surf Shop for over a decade now, and they continue to impress me with their outstanding service and quality products. Recently, I purchased a new 6'2" Retro Ripper from their Cocoa location, caught up in the stoke buzz of my purchase I hastily rushed home for some good quality alone time with my new shred sled. Once home, I discovered a small ding on the tail.

I visited their Melbourne Beach location to discuss my options, unsure of what to expect. As usual, the staff at Catalyst Surf Shop (Kenny specifically) were incredibly understanding and proactive. They immediately offered to repair the board free of charge, apologized sincerely for any inconvenience caused, and assured me that they would take care of everything promptly.

True to their word, the board was professionally repaired and ready to hit the water within just a couple of days. The entire experience left me thoroughly impressed with their commitment to customer satisfaction.

Catalyst Surf Shop isn't just a place to buy surfboards; it's a community-minded establishment that genuinely cares about its customers. Their professionalism, integrity, and dedication to their craft make them stand out in the surfing community.

If you're looking for a surf shop that not only sells top-notch equipment but also goes above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction, look no further than Catalyst Surf Shop in Melbourne Beach. They have earned my trust and loyalty time and time again. Five stars without hesitation, CATALYST FOR LIFE!!

I just wanna say Kenny S is the man. I’ve been surfing for 20 years and still don’t fully understand how boards and their designs work 100%. Sad I know, but my surfing speaks louder haha.
He took the time to really go into detail on finding me a great step up board for FLs bigger days but still versatile enough to handle something smaller.
He was patient, knowledgeable, kind, and very professional.
Did I mention knowledgeable?

If you’re a new surfer or even an experienced go speak with Kenny and give him the opportunity to help you find the right board.

I’d drop 6 stars if I could.

Thanks a lot Kenny, you’re the man. I really appreciate your time today. Looking forward to pick her up. Yeeeeew 🤙🏼

I picked up a new RNF 96 and set of fins at Catalyst Melbourne Beach today and have some thoughts:

Pros of Catalyst Melbourne Beach:
-Best board selection in Central Florida (seriously, and even better than the other Catalysts too!)
-Killer location a block from the beach, great vibe and area
-Kenny is the man! Super knowledgeable and enthusiastic customer service. He'll help you find some great options without pushing you into anything.

Cons of Catalyst Melbourne Beach:
- I can't have ALL the boards
- That's it, there are no other cons.

Thanks for the help today guys, even though I live in NSB I'll be back for my next board!

I bought a pair of sunglasses that broke a month later just by holding them.. didn’t drop them.. granted they were some cheapies for 50 bucks but I think they should last more than a month. I asked if catalyst would do an exchange they said I’d have to go through the manufacturer. I get all that but as much money as they’re making, maybe they should just take into consideration, customer convenience, and just let me pick out another pair or give me some sort of proration.. so after years of shopping here, I’m not going back. They pretend to be catered to locals but it’s just another chain surf shop, if you like overpriced T-shirts and you like to advertise for free for corporations, catalyst is your spot.

Best surf shop in town! Even when they are low on boards they still have lots and lots of boards! Super stoked on my driver2 "bro" model. Thanks guys

Extremely disappointed with the service at this surf shop. The employees seemed completely disinterested in helping customers and were downright rude. It's disheartening to see such a lack of enthusiasm and respect for customers in a place that should be all about passion for surfing. Won't be returning anytime soon.
