Today we honor every man and woman who served, sacrificed, and gave everything. We carry them into every paddle out, every program, and every wave.

At Operation Surf, we were built on the belief that our veterans deserve healing, community, and hope. Today we pause to honor the fallen and recommit to showing up for those still here.

Healing. Honoring. Hope.

Did you know that in every Operation Surf program, during our paddle outs, we drop a rock into the ocean to release our burdens and toss a rose into the circle to honor and celebrate those we have lost?

It's a simple act. And it means everything.

As Memorial Day approaches, an anonymous donor is matching every gift up to $25,000. Your donation today is doubled.

🌹 Give today and we will release a rose in honor of someone you love at our next paddle out ➡️ https://operationsurf.org/donate/

OS3 2026 officially kicked off their first surf session at Avila Beach this weekend 🌊

For the next 3 months, this crew will be surfing together twice a week up and down the Central Coast as part of our local Veteran surf program.

Built on the foundations of SURFING, COMMUNITY, SERVICE, and FAMILY, this program is more than just surfing. Together they’ll build connection, give back to the community, and eventually share the gift of surfing with their families during Family Day.

Huge shoutout to our Program Manager John for creating the new OS3 surf manual to support the educational side of the program. We’re excited to finally have it in print and in participants’ hands this week 📙
