PRESS RELEASE – The Hafa Surf Series competition at Talofofo Bay was launched in November 2015 by Lotus Surf Shop as a fun filled day of surfing open to the entire family. The concept is based on having fun and competing with other kids/adults of similar ages. The Hafa Surf Series encourages the community to apply their surfing skills and talents as well as learning the fundamentals of surfing.

With support from our other local businesses like Fokai, Ambros, Shimbros and technical assistance from Guam’s surfing and bodyboarding federation, Guahan Napu Inc., local residents and visitors can enjoy a day at the surf or spend quality family time at the event. Lotus Surf Shop hopes to inspire and introduce the island’s surfing culture to all.
