International Women's Day at Urbnsurf

Overview

Whether you're a tentative first-timer or a seasoned waverider — if you identify as female and you're keen to get in some surf time while the weather's still decent, Urbnsurf's weeklong IWD celebrations are for you.

The surf park is honouring Aussie women with an extended run of watery festivities from Monday, March 7–Friday, March 11. During that time, all female guests will score free wetsuit and board hire with their park entry, making any wave time extra affordable.

If you're new to the game or just want a bit of expert guidance, there's also a cheeky 20 percent off Learn to Surf and Beginner lessons available when you book with the code "IWD2022".

And on Friday, March 11, an all-female Surf and Sip session will take over both sides of the lagoon for a laidback evening featuring left- and right-hander waves for all skill levels. Choose between a Cruiser Turns session with its gentle pointbreak-style waves ($75) or the novice-friendly Play In The Bays ($35), both of which wrap up with a complimentary post-surf bev at Three Blue Ducks.

Celebrated surfer Tru Starling will also be hitting the waves, as well as hosting a chat about ​​the global female surf movement.
