Support the Gaza Surf Club

Since 2008 the Gaza Surf Club has worked to support and empower Palestinian surfers living and surfing under some of the world’s most difficult conditions.


Support for the Surf Club has come in many forms and, thanks to the generosity of fellow surfers and supporters, the Surf Club is making great progress in developing a sustainable Palestinian surfing community. The film Gaza Surf Club, provides an insight into a Gaza not many have heard about before. Following some of the young people living in Gaza, this story shows the power of surfing as a form of emancipation and freedom in the land of the “not-free”.


Help sustain this surfing community and show your support.

I've been working in this area since I was born. The kids used to surf on pieces of wood from a closet or a table for example, any piece of wood. Today children come to us to learn surfing. They are all friends, neighbors or our own kids and we teach them what we can with our limited resources.
