The Program

How it works.

The Beach Club offers unlimited bike, bay, surf and beach rentals to your students. Students receive complimentary access to all rental equipment, with a simple waiver and deposit system in place. Our rental shops manage all equipment and handle any associated risks.

We are a local, family-owned business. For the past 26 years our mission has been helping people enjoy the coast. Since opening Cheap Rentals in 1998 we've grown to multiple locations across Mission Beach and Pacific Beach.

No gear to buy, no storage to find, no checkout desk to staff — students simply show their ID at one of our three shops and go.

Benefits

Student benefits

Lower cortisol, better mental health

Time in the ocean and on the boardwalk measurably reduces stress.

Reduced academic burnout through nature

A break that actually restores — not another screen.

Better cognitive function

Reduced stress translates into sharper focus and improved study outcomes.

Healthy social habits

Group rides, surf sessions and bay days build real community on campus.

Less clutter and liability

No boards or bikes stored in dorms — the gear stays at our shops.
