This is a bodyboarding contest and beach festival hosted by East Coast Bodyboarding, in partnership with the USBA tour.

The contest’s proceeds will benefit three main charities:
  • Ocean’s Harbor House

  • SurfRider

  • The American Red Cross

In addition, the winning team gets to select an additional charity to receive a portion of the proceeds.

Why sign up?

How much does it cost?

It's free to come to the beach fest.

Entry for the competition is $20.  However, if you can raise $30 from family/friends to be donated to our charities, your entry is free!  Plus, the more you raise, the more you can win!

This event is entirely to benefit charity, so 100% of the proceeds will be donated.
