- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 13 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 am (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: New Jersey’s Largest Autism-Friendly Beach Event
The Annual Autism Beach Bash is our favorite day of the year—and for many families, the best day of theirs. Each year, this free event brings together more than 3,000 attendees for a one-of-a-kind day of community and connection. Last year, 150 individuals with autism rode the waves with Surfers Healing, building confidence and creating lasting memories with every ride.

Join us for a full day of surf, music, sunshine, and good vibes at New Jersey’s largest autism-friendly event. It’s a rare chance to be among thousands of others who get what it means to live with autism, who share your experiences, and who welcome you just as you are. That’s more than community. That’s what belonging feels like. And that’s what this day is built to deliver.

The Surfing Experience: Powered By Surfers Healing
At the heart of Autism Beach Bash is our long-time partner, Surfers Healing. They are the original surf camp for children with autism. Founded in 1996, this California-based nonprofit has spent over 25 years creating unforgettable surf experiences for children with special needs and their families. 

Each year, their volunteer-staffed camps introduce more than 4,500 kids to the ocean, offering more than just a fun day at the beach. For many participants, the waves bring calm. The weightlessness, the rhythm, the freedom—it all creates a sensory experience that feels like therapy. 

For children who face daily challenges, and for parents who are used to hearing what their child can’t do, Surfers Healing offers something different. It’s about possibility. It’s about joy. It’s about watching a child ride a wave and seeing their confidence rise with it And the hardest part? Getting them to come out of the water. 

For many participants, surfing provides:

A calming sensory experience
Increased confidence
A sense of freedom and accomplishment
A moment where ability takes center stage
