The Surf Shack
10 Years In Curracloe
Established in summer 2013 with just 7 surfboards and 20 wetsuits The Surf Shack was opened on June 29th by a group of stoked friends looking to mix work and fun and make it their job.
The Early Years
The very first lesson at The Shack aligned perfectly with a June storm and great waves. The 8 local daredevils pictured above went out in to the waves with shakas held high and became the first kids to surf Curracloe Beach. Most of these guys and girls you will meet when you visit The Shack today. 10 years later they are heavily involved in the day to day running of the business and continue the ethos of fun and adventure they embodied all those summers ago.
Surfing Boom in Curracloe
Through the years the shack grew and grew. The Shack itself remained small but the groups kept getting bigger. More and more mad men and women were needed to create The Shack team each summer. Local surfers along with a sprinkling of west coast surf talent recruited during frozen winter adventures in The Shack van made up this “dream team” each year and the surfing needs of the South East were met.
