Get out on the water and support your community and environment as we work together to promote a clean ocean. Catch a Curl is open to beginners through advanced youth surfers and will include a beach cleanup as part of the event.
The 14th Annual Catch a Curl Youth Surf Classic is open to beginners through advanced youth surfers ages 6-18, and is followed by a community Beach Cleanup open to all.
"Try-surfing" sessions are available with the support of NESS instructors to learn the basics or tune up your surfing skills before the competition. Registered participants can enjoy 15-minute try-surfing sessions, with three people in the water at a time, on a first-come, first-served basis.
