Story

We take children surfing. Children who have never been, children who have never had the chance. Children who want it, who maybe need it, and allow them to fall in love with the ocean, as we did.

IT MAKES ME FEEL ALIVE! LATRELL (AGED 9)

City Kids Surfing connects children with the sea through the emotive power of surfing, exploring whole-life health, conservation and sustainability. We believe that the best way to impact children's future and present choices about sustainability and ocean conservation is to facilitate magical experiences riding waves, experiences that also positively influence how children approach their own physical and mental health.

Children from the inner city are faced every day with choices which effect both their wellbeing and the pollution of our oceans. How are they expected to make informed choices with no real connection to the sea and its wonders?
