Surf & beach videos

A slice of surfing history

From 1994 to 1999 the Coastwatch cameras captured Queensland surfing action on a weekly basis, resulting in a video vault full of the surfing history of that era. Rather than let this great footage gather dust on a shelf, we post it up here on the Coastwatch web site for those interested in recent surfing history.    GO>>
