Thanks to these legends and our friends at Omaze, you have a chance to win a four-day excursion to Cabo San Lucas, where you’ll catch waves with the guys by day and unwind to Timmy and Rob’s acoustic guitars by night.

To add to the adventure, you’ll even spend a full day enjoying paradise from a luxury catamaran (yes, it’s a thing) where you can surf, snorkel, stand up paddle board and spearfish. Plus, you’ll stay in the luxurious Surfer Villa at The Cape Hotel with a private patio, direct beach access and multiple mouthwatering restaurants to choose from.

Whether you’re a seasoned surfer or just getting your toes wet, this is the way to do it. Flights and three nights at The Cape Hotel are included and every donation will benefit SurfAid’s lifesaving Mother and Child Health Programs, making everyone a winner!

Campaign launches on July 10th and closes at midnight on August 28 (Pacific Standard Time). Visit omaze.com/cabo to donate and win a chance to surf and save a life with Rob, Tim and Damien.

About SurfAid:

 SurfAid’s core mission is to save the lives of women and children in remote areas connected to us by surfing.  We specialize in working in very isolated villages where the maternal and child mortality rate is extremely high. 

Many in our communities suffer from preventable causes. SurfAid implements a “hand up, not a hand out” philosophy toward aid. Local staff provides advice, training, and expertise, but it is up to the community to implement and embrace change. We educate communities on simple things like clean water and sanitation, basic healthcare and improved nutrition. All of which have enormous positive impacts on the health of women and their families. 

In Nias Indonesia, working with a population of 10,000, SurfAid has helped to reduce maternal deaths from 8 annually to zero for three years in a row. During the same timeframe, the mortality rate for children under five has all but disappeared with only one death reported last year. That is down from an average of 22 per year at the start of the program in 2012.

In the past 17 years, in addition to building award winning health programs, SurfAid has helped communities re-build their lives after five major natural disasters – earthquakes and tsunamis in the area.

Seven free surfers embarked on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before.

Not that long ago, in an island chain far, far away, seven free surfers embarked on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before. Equipped with an array of surfboards, a packet of crayons and two ukuleles, their chances of success were slim. In pursuit of perfection, they were forced to navigate under the radar of a fleet of imperial boat charters. Despite numerous obstacles, the rebel alliance of wave-riding beatniks continued to make Galactik Tracks into a new surfing cosmos; their search for a Nirvana reaching its climax when they arrived at… The Island of Nowhere.

STARRING: DAVE RASTOVICH

The film features the enigmatic and free-thinking Dave Rastovich at home on the Far North Coast of NSW.

Gathering is a short film from independent filmmaker Nathan Oldfield, the creator of the award-winning left of centre surf films Lines From a Poem, Seaworthy and The Heart & The Sea. The film features the enigmatic and free-thinking Dave Rastovich at home in the sacred playgrounds of the Far North Coast of New South Wales. The film explores Rastovich’s ideas around how the tension between the industrial and the natural in the surfing world unfolds in that place. Ultimately, Gathering celebrates how diversity and difference in ecosystems, relationships and surfing contribute to the preciousness of life. Gathering is easy on the eyes and ears and Tracks Magazine is proud to present it to you. Nathan Oldfield is a maverick, a filmmaker who wants a surf movie to say something important, to move us and make us grateful for the sea around us and the life within us. His films are quiet, beautiful and brimming with sacred purpose. Tim Winton, Acclaimed Australian Novelist
