Ben and Jeff's Burgers and Tacos

Ben and Jeff's Burgers and Tacos

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to try one of the new burritos at Ben and Jeff's Burgers and Tacos. The excellent little restaurant is attached to the surf shop and has the same owners. They really put their heart and soul into both businesses, and it shows. They've created a great environment for shopping and eating--indoors or outdoors, right by the ocean in Pacific City.

It's perfect for walking in to satisfy post surf hunger and thirst. Ben and Jeff have hired friendly staff, and have chosen great ingredients and delicious recipes. I highly recommend the burrito, which is energizing with rice, beans, chicken or pork or fish, cilantro, and my favorite surprise ingredient--pineapple.

“How would you describe the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic” is a question I get asked during interviews ahead of each year’s contest. The simple answer is to say that it’s a local surf contest put on by a dedicated group of volunteers. The truth is that the contest is something more than that. It has its own soul. It has a life that we and the organizers before us can’t take credit for. I would like to think we had something to do with it, but the reality is the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic has become something far beyond anything anyone ever imagined.

It's that time of year again, and we're opening registration for our 2025 Youth Surf Camps! Youth surf camps are open to kids ages 10 - 16 with some flexibility, and all levels are welcome!

Both cheers of support and loud laughter were heard throughout Pacific City this past weekend as surfers and spectators gathered on the beach to root on the participants in the annual Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic. This year marks the 25th running of the beloved community event.
Started in 1998 by Bob and Michelle Ledbetter, the contest has grown to become a staple of the NW surf community. It not only attracts surfers throughout Oregon, but this year saw people from Canada, California, Washington and even Hawaii make the pilgrimage.
