OAKURA BOARDRIDERS CLUB
Oakura Boardriders Club was formed in 1991 with the objective to foster the sport of surfing, encourage the safe and respectful use of our local coastline, and provide a community hub for members.
Oakura Boardriders Club is managed by a voluntary committee. We have a celebrated tradition of engaging and coaching local young people and the wider community to surf, swim and enjoy everything our unique environment has to offer.
