ASB MAGAZINE: The Board of National Surfing Reserves announced that Cabarita Beach and Bogangar region will be declared as a surfing reserve. Local Steering Committee chairperson Dr Kerrie Foxwell-Norton has welcomed the move. The board, which includes a group of coastal experts and is led by Professor Andrew Short and Brad Farmer, commended locals’ nominations of the Tweed Coast break.

 

“While declaring Surfing Reserves at such beautiful places like Caba are largely symbolic in nature, it acknowledges the past, the present and importantly to future generations, that surfing beaches are a valuable and integral part of our national identity and way of life and need to be respected, preserved and shared,” said Mr. Farmer

 

The Cabarita Beach-Bogangar LSC will develop a commemorative booklet, the installation of an official plaque and formal dedication ceremony.

 

“The community is stoked to see our surfing environment honored in this outstanding way,” Dr Foxwell-Norton said.
