Vegemite SurfGroms is the world-first national junior surfing program which offers 5-12 olds an opportunity to develop strong ocean awareness and beach safety skills, while also developing a proficiency in surfing.

They will also have access to the best seats in town on the Vegemite Mightiest Seat on the Beach, which will provide an uninterrupted, elevated view of the competition area plus also letting the kids try tarp surfing. It will be operating each day from around 7.30 in morning through to 4pm and serving Vegemite on toast all day plus hosting tons of giveaways with loads of Vegemite surf wax and Wahu beach toys.
