Surfing Tasmania

Tasmania has the reputation of the coolest and cleanest water in Australia, we also have some of the worlds most challenging, isolated and uncrowded waves.

In 2012 Surfing Tasmania provides the competition framework for the sport of surfing in Tasmania, and assists with the organisation and running of other selected events.

We will run 8 to 10 events in 2012 in all corners of the state which produces State Champions in all age divisions that will represent Tasmania at the Arnette Grommet Titles, Open Surfmasters and National Longboard Titles.

Our events cater from the under 12's to the Legends who must be over 50 to compete, in longboard, bodyboard, shortboard and standup paddle board disciplines.

We also host our own round of the Rip Curl Gromsearch, usually held in early November. Interstate visitors to this event in 2011 have named it the friendliest comp and we plan on encouraging that atmosphere at all our events.

Tassie events are made of great weekends away surfing in places like Bruny Island, Scamander, the Tasman Peninsula and Marrawah - truly unique locations, with great camaraderie.You'll need to pack clothing for all weathers, as well as be prepared to not stay in touch with your mobile phone - reception can be dodgy in many areas of the State. Besides, you'll be too busy soaking up the natural beauty of Tassie to worry too much about the 'outside world'!

2012 will also see the return of the  Australian Junior Surfing Titles to be held in late Nov/early Dec (dates to be confirmed)in the Nubeena area. Surfing Tas last hosted this event in 2005 and we are looking to playing host once again.

Surfing Tasmania  is also in strong liaison with other ocean interest and user groups to help preserve and protect Tasmania's unspoiled ocean environments for all to enjoy now and into the future .
