Surfboats are a thrilling and iconic part of surf lifesaving at Omanu Beach Surf Club. These powerful, four-oared boats are crewed by local lifesavers who compete in surfboat racing events, showcasing strength, teamwork, and bravery in all surf conditions.

Omanu Beach has a proud tradition of surfboats across all skill levels, with dedicated crews training (most of the) year-round to represent the club at local and national competitions. The sport not only builds physical fitness and camaraderie but also enhances vital rescue skills, reinforcing the club’s commitment to beach safety and community service.
