The weekend is broader than a surf contest
The programme brings sport together with live music, workshops, yoga and a market. Surf activity includes competition categories and an adaptive component intended to widen participation.
A programme announcement does not guarantee that every activity will run unchanged. Wind, waves and participant numbers can affect coastal events.
