‘Europe is, and always has been a travelling surfers dream.’
Wildly diverse coastlines, curiously “other” cultures and perfect waves: a beguiling mix for those hardy souls who first explored the Old World for surf and adventure. What transpired was an annual winter pilgrimage, from the bitter North to the sunlit South. A quest for perfect waves and life changing experiences in the most culturally diverse continent on the planet. 50 years on, we join a new generation of European surfers as they trace the steps of the pioneering few who first tackled Europe’s waves and sculpted it’s extraordinary surf scene.
Mark Harris and friends chart a modern take on the classic European surf trail, from England to Morocco. Combining pioneering stories from the likes of Kevin Naughton to Kepa Acero, archive footage and perfect surf from Europe's most iconic surf spots this beautiful, award-winning documentary is a must see for surfers and explorers alike. Filmed on location in Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Ireland, Germany, Norway, California & Hawaii. With surf sequences from La Barre, Hossegor, Mundaka, Nazare, Coxos, Anchor Point, Munich & Remote Northern Europe.
