Schedule & Heat Draws for the event are posted here 

Welcome to the 2023/24 Salt Life WSA Championship Event # 9 presented by Got Milk! This weekend’s event will be held at Salt Creek Beach Park in Dana Point.

In order to accommodate all of the entrants at this event, a few divisions have higher-ranked surfers seeded into Round 2. Lower-ranked surfers will start in Round 1. If you would like to beach enter, you can enter into round 1 heats only. There will be no alternates in Round 2.

All heat times are shown above the heat. Please check your heat time carefully so that you do not miss your heat.

Since this is a full event and we have limited opening, please see Mia on the beach if you would like to register for an extra division. No late entries will be accepted via email.

Out of respect for local beach concessionaire, Young’s Beach Shack, we will not be serving food at this event. Young’s will be offering our competitors and their families 10% off for the weekend (excluding alcoholic beverages). Just pick up the discount card at the beach marshal.  We will have plenty of Sticky Bumps Surf Wax on hand for competitors. Also, Salt Life will have discount coupons available at the beach marshal.

Paid parking is available at  the parking kiosk which takes credit cards. Free parking is located at Strands Beach and up on Niguel Road East of PCH.

WSA announcer and shirt designer, Rick Erkeneff, continues to recover from his aneurysm, but he has a lot of work ahead of him to get back to work and surfing. If you feel inclined, please give to his GoFundMe account. The banners and well wishes were much appreciated.

See you on the beach!
