Description

Surfing came to the central Oregon coast Within the early 1960s. Most commonly young boys from Newport and the Agate Beach area took to the waves, without wetsuits or leashes, and taught themselves the way to surf Within the forbidding cold waters. Sooner or later forming the Agate Beach Surf Club, they came upon other surfing communities along the Oregon coast. Without a up to date-day technology to assist them, they traveled the rugged Oregon coast searching for good and accessible surf spots. Fifty years later, the surfing culture has grown and evolved, including both genders, kite, wind, stand-up-paddle, and big wave surfing. What hasnt changed is the original and challenging environment of the Oregon coast. Geography, the weather, and the cold water still remain the biggest challenges. Within the face of all this, the surfing community grows and continues to prosper.
