We Love Good Food!
In the old days, you could find frozen meat just down the aisle from the gun and ammunition selection. Today, 60 years later, we offer an amazing selection of quality products featuring locally made artisan foods, sustainable seafood, local and organic produce, specialty cheeses, hot and cold deli offerings, a large hand picked selection of wine and spirits, and yummy baked goods. In addition, we have one of the finest meat departments in Northern California. We invite you to explore our website and enjoy information and photos about our departments, products, and team members. We look forward to seeing you at the market.
Warm regards,

Surf Market BBQ
Days & Hours
Weather and air quality permitting, the Surf Market BBQ operates Fridays and Saturdays from 11am-5pm.

Meet Richard and Chica from Bellingham, Washington. “We come through here every couple of years. Chica is the best traveling companion. She just sits up there and takes in the views. Last night at our campground, she alerted me to a gang of raccoons who were ransacking the camp next to us. We love the Mendocino Coast and we always love coming to Surf Market. We are heading to Bodega Bay next, then San Francisco. Chica is the best dog, ever. She keeps me company and she’s a great listener. In fact, dogs are angels on earth.”
That’s exactly right Richard. Dogs are angels on earth.

“We have been resetting the center store here at Surf Market, doing a little reorganization and getting things cleaned up. We have made space for more than 350 new items for your customers which always adds energy and excitement. I have been doing this kind of work for more than 30 years and I have to tell you, Surf Market is a really special place and I love coming to the coast. I’m grateful for the exceptional attention to detail that George, Jared and Ron have demonstrated over these last 3 days. Thank you to all of the Surf Market customers and team members who have been so patient and helpful during our time here.”. Larry, Kehe Territory Sales Manager (far left)

25 years ago. Federico walked into our warehouse and asked Steve May for a job. Federico admits, at that time, he didn’t speak any English. Slowly Federico learned English, learned all the various inner workings of Surf Market along with an unbelievable ear for music and all of the lyrics- in English! Today we celebrate Federico’s 25 years of service here at Surf Market. With gratitude and appreciation, we salute you Federico.

Hace 25 años, Federico entró en nuestro almacén y le pidió trabajo a Steve May. Federico admite que, en ese momento, no hablaba inglés. Poco a poco, Federico aprendió inglés, aprendió todos los mecanismos internos de Surf Market y además tiene un oído increíble para la música y todas las letras, ¡en inglés! Hoy celebramos los 25 años de servicio de Federico aquí en Surf Market. Con gratitud y aprecio, te saludamos, Federico.

Leon is the farmer behind Wiseacre Farm in Point Arena. Using organic practices, Leon’s fruits and vegetables are some of the most meticulous specimens we have ever seen and they are extraordinarily delicious. These organic sour cherries don’t look real. They have bright green stems the most vibrant, hot red color and there is not a blemish or bruise to be found. Sour cherries are used for pies, galettes and jams and they do pack a sour punch. But,with the addition of sugar, the tartness quiets and that classic cherry flavor shines through in the very best way. Come find Leon’s locally and organically grown sour cherries here at Surf Market. Here’s to Leon and his incredible talents as a farmer and steward of the land. 🍒 (Note: No filter was used in this picture- the cherries are that color in person. At one point we thought we saw white specs on the cherries but it was the reflection of the other cherries on their skins! 🍒)

When we designed our Gualala “It’s Worth The Drive “ hat with @unclebillhats, we wanted a hat that captured the rugged side of our beautiful coastal area. A hat that was a little tough, a little vintage+retro with a strong feel of what makes Gualala special. The team at Uncle Bill came back with exactly what we were looking for. If you live here in Gualala, or you are visiting, you know it’s “Worth The Drive”. We are thrilled with the collection of custom hats Uncle Bill has made for us and there’s more coming soon. Looking for some custom hats? Ask for Jordan or Matt and tell them we sent you.

“It’s a beautiful day. Staying positive matters and I find it’s easy to stay positive if you commit to making it a mindset. Everyone here has been amazing. What a beautiful place this is! I’m off to walk from Point Arena (where I was picked up yesterday )to The Sea Ranch Lodge and next stop is Bodega Bay. Thanks for everything! You matter!” Kyndal Edwards | A Walking Testimony.

Kyndal is walking across America to promote mental health awareness. Kyndal spent 11 times in county jail, 2 times in prison, suffered overdoses and sadly two attempts at taking his own life. Kyndal found his sobriety in prison and has been clean and sober for 59 months, walked more than 4500 miles and is on day 485 of walking across America.

If you see Kyndal out on the road, give him a waive, a thumbs up or just some words of encouragement and appreciation. He’s full of happy, contagious positivity and there’s no question he will put a smile on your face. Thank you Kyndal for being such a warrior and a fierce example of perseverance. Keep going!

Surf Market shelfie time! We have so many new + delicious items in stock and more arriving each day. Come have a look at the shelves next to register one for the most wild line up of products you will see anywhere in Mendocino County and beyond. Find that special condiment, that magical ingredient which will help take your meal to the next level. Nothing makes us happier than when our customers tell us how much they love finding new things here in our aisles. And, behind every single one of these products is a person with a passion. We are proud to support all of the creative makers out there, the folks whose products elevate our family meals and gatherings with friends. As an independently owned, single-store location, it’s important to note that behind each product in our store is a buyer with a point of view. No algorithms, no AI. A simple passion for delicious food is what motivates us and sets us apart. We have been here in Gualala for 68 years and while things have certainly changed since Surf Market opened the doors in 1956, one thing remains the same: feeding our community members with the best of the best is at the core of what we strive for. Come see us!
