The South Bay Dozen is recognized as a premier ocean racing event, drawing competitors from all over California, the United States’ East Coast, and internationally. The event includes elite men and women, but aims to support the development of junior athletes as well, featuring an under 19 division. The South Bay Dozen consists of twelve ocean racing events and culminates in a participant-only raffle awarding twelve grand prizes. The event serves as a fundraiser for the Jimmy Miller Foundation, 501c3.
4 Divisions: Open Women, Open Men, Under 19 Women, Under 19 Men. All U19 athletes are also allowed to race in open events.
We award prize money for top 5 Open Women/Men, and prizes for top 3 U19 Women/Men. If an U19 athlete places top 5 in either open division they will earn those points and get that spot's cash purse.

2026/2027 Shaw and Partners World Ocean Series is back! - Announcement of the 2026 International dates
Following an exceptional 2025/26 season, the Shaw and Partners World Ocean Series is back for 2026/27. We are proud to announce the first part of the new season calendar, highlighted...
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.”
— Trent Goulding, Founder & Series Director
