Hosted by Coffs Harbour Surf Club
As the Shaw and Partners World Ocean Series heads back down the Pacific Highway for the Coffs Harbour Craft Carnival, it’s set to light up Park Beach once again. Presented and hosted by the Coffs Harbour Surf Club, this iconic stop on the series returns on Saturday, 15 November 2025, bringing together some of Australia’s best surf athletes for a full day of high-energy racing and coastal culture.
This carnival carries a rich history — it’s the 51st time it’s been run — and that tradition continues this Saturday. Athletes are travelling from across the East Coast to Coffs Harbour, ready for a massive weekend of racing. From the iconic Big Banana to stunning beaches and great local restaurants, Coffs offers the perfect backdrop for competitors and supporters alike.
With Park Beach delivering its trademark mix of beauty and unpredictability, the stage is set for a classic Coffs showdown — fast, fun, and full of community spirit. Get ready for a weekend that celebrates surf sport, the ocean, and the vibrant heart of Coffs Harbour.
This going to be a fun one!

Why we do this
"The Shaw and Partners World Ocean Series was created to connect — to bring together athletes, clubs, and communities who share a passion for the ocean.
It’s about more than racing. It’s about celebrating the people who make this sport what it is — the volunteers, officials, and families who show up, rain or shine, and the next generation who are inspired by them.
Every event is a reminder of what makes our surf community so special — the challenge, the camaraderie, and the simple joy of being in the ocean.”
