Kids are born with surf stoke, that infectious love for the ocean and fun in the sun! The Australian National Surfing Museum in Torquay is the perfect place for families to connect with Australia’s vibrant surf culture. This iconic museum not only celebrates the rich history of surfing but also highlights the joy, confidence, and respect for nature that surfing instills in children.

Surfing encourages children to embrace the outdoors, respect the ocean, and build confidence – and this museum offers an amazing way to dive deeper into the world of surfing while inspiring the next generation of wave riders.
