Yorkshire Coast Guide

Shopping in Scarborough

Secret Spot - A long time ago, in a Yorkshire town not so far away, a man called Obi Wan Povey established an alliance of surfers in the form of a surfboard and lifestyle shop and in 1989 Secretspot was founded... Since then, things have moved on and Secretspot has grown in size and reputation. At the same time as providing a quality service to all our customers from all walks of life and all over the world, we still stay true to our roots in surf, skate and snow.
