The event begins Friday August 15th with Guy Takayama's 8th Annual Pro Noseriding Contest. This event will feature some of the worlds best longboard surfers competing for the longest noseride and thousands of dollars in prize money.

On Saturday August 16th amateur longboard and standup paddleboard surfers from as far north as San Francisco begin competing for bragging rights, some cool trophies and hard cold cash in the 24th Annual Oceanside Longboard Surfing Clubs End of Summer Surf Contest and Beach Festival. This competition includes surfers from 6 to 60+ years old with trophies and prize money presented for individual performances and the top scoring team.

Not into surfing but like the beach? The beach festival has something for every member of the family. Several vendors will be providing delicious food that can be washed down with beer from our beer garden provided by Pizza Port. Vendors will be selling their unique products including original artwork, fine handcrafted jewelry, clothing and other surf/beach related items.

Enjoy music? Several local musical groups will play for your pleasure and we will even have a Polynesian dance group performing original dances from the South Pacific islands. Feeling lucky? A standup paddleboard and other beach gear will be raffled off during the festival with all proceeds donated to Oceansides High School Surf Teams, The California Surf Museum and the Interscholastic Surfing Federation.

So come join the fun and enjoy this end of summer celebration with us, you wont be disappointed.
