Surfers for Autism

Surfers for Autism takes children and young adults with autism or related disabilities surfing. At a Surfers for Autism event, our surfers are provided a safe, fun, judgment free environment where our volunteer surf instructors carefully guide them into waves. Our surfers and their families are treated like rock stars and enjoy a day filled with a range of activities. Depending on location the day’s activities may include stand up paddle boarding, music, face-painting, games, bounce houses, fire engine tours, paint the fire engine and much more. A catered lunch is also provided, all at no cost to anyone. This is a very special day where children with ASD interact with typical peers and wow families with their capabilities. These events are examples of inclusion at the highest level.
