We brought world-class surf to the UAE. Right here between desert and sea – Surf Abu Dhabi is a premium surf destination where bucket-list waves lead to cold drinks, exceptional food, and the kind of vibe that makes you forget what time it is, whether you're dropping in for the first time or hunting that dream session.
From groms to beginners to pros, we've created surf experiences that match whatever you consider the perfect session.
From October 24 to 26, Surf Abu Dhabi hosted an unforgettable weekend of world-class surfing, music, and good vibes. Forty-eight of the world’s best longboarders showcased their style and creativity on perfect waves, celebrating the art of longboarding in the heart of the desert.
Congratulations to Honolua Blomfield and Édouard Delpero, winners of the Surf Abu Dhabi Longboard Classic 2025.
