Operation Surf

Operation Surf channels the healing powers of the ocean to restore hope, renew purpose, and revitalize community. Changing lives, one wave at a time.

Surfing is a form of healing that promotes wellness through nature-based therapy. We inspire and support wounded veterans and active-duty military to seek wellness in all aspects of their lives while providing them with compassionate mentorship, and the necessary resources and tools to continue this mindset indefinitely. Operation Surf runs programs year-round along the coast of California. Currently, we have two programs on the Central Coast of California and are provided at no cost to our veterans. Our week-long program serves wounded military recovering across the nation with a focus on recreational therapy. Our six-month program, OS6, serves Central Coast veterans with a focus on four areas: mentorship, family, unity, and surfing.
