The Great Lakes Surf Festival

The Great Lakes Surf Festival will take place on August 17th at Pere Marquette Beach, Muskegon, Michigan. For the first time Best Western Tamarindo Vista Villas, our Tamarindo Costa Rica Hotels, will be part of that prestigious festival with a great raffle.
During the 2018 event, over 1000 people attended. 280 of those learned how to surf, SUP, and kayak for the first time. Event goers also participated in yoga and countless workshops and clinics geared to educated and enhance a board rider’s skills. Similar to the 2018 event, the 2019 Great Lakes Surf Festival will focus on fun for all ages and a safe family atmosphere. Standup Paddle races are planned throughout the day for riders of all age groups. There will also be an artificial wave generating vessel that will generate small waves for surfing. Kayak races and Standup Paddle Yoga will also be on the agenda. Local artists will be invited to design blank surfboard that will be showcased at the event. Food and drinks will also be available that is perfect in combination with good quality air, read http://actionac.net/ for more info. While this event promises to be a board rider’s nirvana, one of the most appealing aspects of participating in this festival will be the opportunity to camp directly on the beach, just a few steps from the water. Tent camping, at a specified section of Pere Marquette Beach, will be available for the nights of Friday, August 16th and Saturday, August 17th.
Regional sports retail shops are expected to participate as is a throng of major industry brands. Registered participants will be eligible for free product raffles and offer free spin, including a variety of surfboards, clothing, and a variety of sports-related accessories.
