Santa Barbara
Surf Film Festival 2024

The 4th Annual Santa Barbara Surf Film Festival is the ultimate celebration of surf culture and Santa Barbara’s rich surf history! The festival started in 2019 with the idea to combine the love of cinema, ocean conservation, and community. Films screened at SBSFF include shorts, new independent films, documentaries, and international films with in-person dialogue with the filmmakers. The festival also includes a Grom Program giving local up and coming surfers a platform to screen their surfing highlights, as well as an Environmental Program. Aligning with our mission to protect the ocean, #SBSFF2024 supports 3 local nonprofits: Heal the Ocean, The Surf Happens Foundation and Surfrider Santa Barbara.
