Weekends flat, so who wants to do the comp this Thursday 1st October? Surf forecast looking really good, nice little easterly swell. I know a lot of people won't be able to make it, but we can't run any other days, so thought it would be better to run midweek than not at all. Will be 9am check in, with heats starting 10am. Junior heats will be run after 5pm so the kids can get here after school. See you all there if you can make it. Again huge thanks to our sponsors:

☀️🌊What a summer it’s been 🌊☀️

We’ve had some really good surf this summer, and even better, we’ve welcomed so many people from all over the country (and beyond!) to Whitby to have a go at surfing for the very first time 🙌

There’s something pretty special about catching your first wave, the nerves, the excitement, the wipeouts, and that "I did it!" feeling when you finally stand up 🏄‍♀️

Surfing isn’t just about riding waves either. It’s getting outside, being active, meeting new people, building confidence, switching off from everyday life and having a ridiculous amount of fun while doing it.

Ella and Beatrix absolutely smashed it for their first lesson 🤙💙

We’re still open for surfboard/wetsuit hire until end of October! 🌊 (weather and conditions permitting), so if you fancy getting in the water before the season ends, send us a message. And if we’re not showing as open but you’re looking to hire when the surf is good, drop us a message anyway! If we’re available, we’re more than happy to pop down and get you sorted 🤙

Here’s to more waves, more first times and plenty more happy faces in the water!
