 We are like a bunch of excited little grommies here behind the scenes, working hard to bring you the best 3 days of non-competitive surf events & ocean inspired artistic experiences / environmental workshops that we can possibly jam in to February 24, 25 and 26.

 So do yourself a favour – clear your schedule that weekend, grab ya togs, ya boardies, boards & good vibes & come stoke in the surf with some new mates.
 
When you’ve had enough of the froth, kick back on Byron Bay’s beautiful beaches for board swaps & demos; park yourself under a tipi to shop ‘n eat ‘n do some yoga (probably not in that order); meet some salty sea loving artists and admire their work; soak in some sunset surf cinema; hit the surf shops & pubs for some pumping parties; and drop by the theatres to hear some inspirational environmental talks.  BBSF 2017 – it’s good fun, good for you AND good for the earth!
