OC Surf Shops
Daydream Surf Shop
Orange County, CA
"Opened in the Winter of 2016,
Daydream
is the creative, experimental love child developed by Becca Mantei and Kyle
Kennelly, who have spent years building their own and combined contributions to a space that serves to promote the
overall intention of good vibes. As our fellow beach children mature into adulthood, Daydream is there to guide them to
a refined and higher vibrational lifestyle with a focus on design, quality, and functionality. Becca draws from her
background in fine art and interior design to bring the community unique goods that bring a higher appreciation to the
objects in our lives. Kyle, draws his main inspirations from his connection to nature and his community. He has been a
long time advocate of getting folks together and into the ocean. Whether it's rounding up his pals for coffee before a
morning dawn patrol or planning weekend surf safaris, Kyle believes that a group's stoke is greater than the sum of its
parts. In the same spirit, Daydream will act as the aquarian surfer's club house to enjoy a morning coffee or tea and
ponder the ideal board/wave pairing to maximize stoke, creativity, and good vibes."
I am incredibly passionate of all the things this coast has to offer. I have always been inspired by local businesses
like Daydream Surf Shop (that doubles as a coffee joint), as well as other small businesses in California's
coastal cities! Because I have such a soft spot for small businesses in my area it actualy inspired me to
create my own! If you take anything from this is to shop local, you will not regret the expereince and will feel the love
that was put into the business!
