Ron Jon Surf Shop

Ron Jon Surf Shop is a surfer style retail store chain founded in 1959 in Ship Bottom, New Jersey by Ron DiMenna. The store specializes in surfing and bodyboarding equipment, and their Cocoa Beach, Florida, store is currently the largest surfing shop in the world. Debra Harvey is the current President.

In addition to the Ship Bottom and Cocoa Beach stores, Ron Jon also operates stores in Orange Beach, Alabama, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Key West, Fort Myers, Panama City Beach and Clearwater Beach, FL, Myrtle Beach, SC and Ocean City, MD. A former store in Orange, California closed in early 2009. The corporation also includes one Ron Jon Surf School separately owned and run by Craig Carroll, located in Cocoa Beach, Florida. The company made plans to construct a Surf Park at the location of the Orlando Ron Jon store, but it has since been canceled, due in part that the schematics for the pool were installed backwards.

The flagship store in Cocoa Beach operates 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. It has over 52,000 square feet of retail space.
