Proudly Presented by

Shaw and Partners Financial Services, whose commitment to community, endurance, and excellence mirrors the spirit of the ocean.

Together, we’re building pathways for athletes and strengthening the future of surf sport across Australia.

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.”
