SurfGirl Magazine

Welcome to our latest issue — your next dose of saltwater stories and surf culture.

Inside, we meet incredible women who’ve followed the call of the ocean across continents — from Guatemala to Taiwan — sharing the journeys that shaped them and the waves that changed everything.

We’re also breaking down why intimidation has no place in surf, and how to claim your space in the line up with confidence.

Feeling stuck in the 9–5? So were we. That’s why we’ dive into chasing surf from Taiwan to Galicia, exploring what it means to build a life around waves. Plus, we spotlight some of the best female surf retreats around the world for your next escape.

On the cover, we feature Erin Brooks — one of the brightest rising stars on the world stage and WSL Rookie of the Year. At just 18, she gives us a glimpse into the mindset of life as a competitive pro surfer.
