At H2O Audio we believe that there is no better place to enjoy life than in or on the water. Whether it’s swimming, surfing, SUPing, kayaking, or even fishing or sailing, our mission is to provide no-compromise, high-quality gear to make any outing involving water even more enjoyable. With Father’s Day right around the corner, we’ve put together a list of water gear and gifts for Dad.

A father pushes his son into a wave while teaching him to surf. Family time at the beach is a focus of the H2O Audio Father's Day gift guide.

 

 

Deep Sea Fishing Trip. A great last minute gift and available on any coast, a day out reeling them in, is a ton of fun. On the U.S. East Coast Matador Sport Fishing Charters is a great choice and on the West Coast near Santa Cruz, CA Chartle Charters will bring you to where the big fish live.


A Surfboard Rack. Let dad show off his boards. We like the all wood Cor Surf Triple. It looks great, and holds three boards. Available HERE.


H2O Audio SURGE BT. Our newest offering, these high quality waterproof headphones connect to any bluetooth-enabled device such as an Apple watch, iPhone or any smartphone. Leave your phone safely in one of our waterproof dry bags, or armbands, and take calls or listen to music. PSSS.. Did you know these are featured in Outdoor Magazine’s 2018 Gear Guide, click HERE to read the article, or HERE to see these in our online store.


A new Fishing Rod. All Dads need at least one good fishing rod. Even if he doesn’t catch a thing, getting on the nearest river, lake, or the ocean is a great way to spend the day.

We like the collapsible Sougayilang Spinning Fishing Rod or the tried and true Ugly Stick.


A Sun Hat. Help Pa keep his skin smooth… and his nose from falling off. We like Columbia Sportswear’s Bora Bora Booney and for a “party on” feel, O’Neil’s Men's Sonoma Prints Straw Hat.


A 6-pack of beer. Available at any local convenience store. For a day by the water, we suggest a light, low octane beer such as Corona or good ol’ Pabst Blue Ribbon.
