23rd Annual Santa Cruz Kayak Surf Festival March 20-22

World-class, novice and intermediate kayakers will be in Santa Cruz, Ca for the 23rd Annual Santa Cruz Kayak Surf Festival on March 20–22.  It is the largest contest in the surf kayaking world and attracts the best athletes and high end kayak designs.

It has become the largest surf event because the wave at Steamer Lane is a world renowned break especially suited to the speed and aerobatics of the new surf kayak.  Spectator viewing is equally impressive as it looks straight down from the cliff directly at the waves.  Last year’s event was blessed with 10 to 15 foot glassy swell energy, with sunny blue skis.
