Second-Hand Surfboards in Hobart

Tasmania’s surf scene is rugged, raw, and built around cold-water breaks that attract dedicated surfers year-round. While Hobart doesn’t have the same density of surf shops as mainland cities, the community is strong, and second-hand boards circulate steadily through local networks. Local shapers like Stranger Surfboards carry the flag for custom designs suited to Tassie’s powerful waves.

For second-hand surfboards, Stormriders in Hobart provides gear and boards for the city’s surfers, while Red Herring Surf Co in Burnie has long been one of Tasmania’s most recognised surf retailers. Though the options are fewer, the boards available are tuned to the island’s unique surf conditions, making the hunt for a second-hand board in Hobart a rewarding one.

Explore second-hand and new surfboards of every shape and size.
