Our Mission

Josh Surridge

Owner and Manager

Josh’s love for the ocean started when his Dad pushed him in to his first waves at 6 years old. 20 years on and he’s had so many incredible experiences to share. Some notable sporting achievements include being a county swimming champion and multiple National surf life saving medallist. His main passion now being surfing, Josh spends his free time chasing some of the best waves across the globe.  Alongside guiding adventures he professionally trains beach lifeguards and teaches surfing. Josh has been working in the industry since the age of 16 and loves the job very much. He spends so much time in the water his mates have actually nicknamed him the Dolphin!
