Coastal FrontierWhere the spirit of adventure is woven into every wave and trail, and where the land and sea offer boundless opportunities for those who call them home. California's central coast and the 8 channel islands within our local bight, have long served as inspiration for Dark Seas. We crave the days when we venture north to connect with our friends in this zone or we make a run out to one of the islands for time on the water. Hollywood and beach towns may capture headlines and postcards but we think of the rugged landscapes, offshore islands and our friends that live and work on the central coast. The spirit of adventure is woven in to every wave and trail. This is where the land and sea offer boundless opportunities for those who call them home.

What's a typical summer day like for Dark Seas Ambassador, Duran Barr? From his surf school, North County Surf Academy, partnering in Shoots Fish and Beer, pier sessions with fellow team rider, Sky Allen, and hopping on the ski to dodge the summer crowds, summertime is non-stop for Duran.
