Surf Etiquette & Rules

1. Give right of way to the surfer that has waited the longest, is closest to the peak or is the first on their feet onto the wave.
2. Communicate. Call “left!” or “right!” if the wave is dual-peaking.
3. Don’t drop in or cut in front of other surfers.

Illustrated guide to surfing etiquette showing surfers in the ocean and on a wave, with numbered examples of good and bad behavior. A list titled ‘Rules of surf’ includes ten guidelines: give right of way, communicate direction, don’t drop in, don’t snake, don’t hog waves, apologize for mistakes, respect locals, don’t throw your board, help others, and respect the beach. Cartoon surfers are shown making mistakes like cutting in, dropping boards, snaking, and littering, with some saying ‘Left!’, ‘Sorry’, and ‘Snake!’ to highlight the rules.

We have questions.
So many questions.

Four people in kayaks are playing a water sport near a floating goalpost in a calm sea, with a stone pier and onlookers in the background. The scene appears to be a casual or training match of kayak polo or a similar sport.

The board also includes social media handles and QR codes for donations, with an emergency access area notice at the bottom.
