Yes! Over the past three decades, we have maintained a roll of members with a one-time joining fee. If you joined in the past, those perks are still yours to enjoy!

We began to notice that a member fee often deterred sisters from joining us on Sunday morning meet-ups, although all are always welcome!

Now, we no longer keep a roll of members - when you join us in the surf or at the beach, you’re part of our Sisters community!

For those who would like to give towards sustaining Sisters of the Sea, please consider joining our new Kōkua Community! For a monthly gift of $5 or more, you help support our programs, and receive some exciting thank-yous!

Nope — just show up! Our First Sunday sessions are open to all women who want to surf, connect, and help clean up Jax Beach. All you need is your own board, good vibes, and your readiness to help! No registration, no membership — just community.

Before hitting the waves with Sisters of the Sea, we ask that you sign the waiver here or at the beach!

If you‘re ready to jump in, there are plenty of ways to get involved!

• Come out for our First Sunday Surf Session & Beach Cleanup— surf, support or help clean up Jax Beach.

• Fill out the contact form on our website and we’ll connect with you personally about volunteer opportunities.

• Get connected by signing up for our monthly newsletter to get updates on upcoming events and special volunteer days.

• And, if you feel inspired, fundraise or donate to support the cause! You can even start your own GoFundMe or fundraiser to support our programs and community work.

Every donation helps us fuel waves of change. Your generosity goes toward:

• Breast Cancer Support: Our annual Sisters & Survivors event, that uplifts female survivors of cancer through a day of fun in the sun and surfing.

• Community Programs: Monthly surf meetups, skills clinics, a new surf team, and beach cleanups that keep Jax Beach beautiful.

• Special Events: Programs that help continue the sisterhood in meaningful, empowering ways.

Every dollar keeps our surf meetups, beach cleanups, and Sisters & Survivors events alive and thriving.

To help us celebrate life, strength, and sisterhood through surf, any woman in our community who has been touched by cancer can come out! We provide free surf lessons for cancer survivors, led by Saltwater Cowgirls Surf Camp and Sisters of the Sea, with two volunteers per participant, a family-style beach brunch. Supportive guys are always welcome to cheer from the shore!

Yes! Sisters of the Sea is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This means your donations directly support our mission of empowering women through surf, service, and sisterhood, and are tax-deductible.

Nope—not at all! Everyone’s welcome! We are dedicated to promoting and empowering female surfers - of all ages, backgrounds, and surfing abilities. So come and learn how to paddle out!

We also host special surf clinics and community sessions throughout the year — like our Toes on the Nose Surf Clinic with Piper Austin — designed for all skill levels. Keep an eye on our website or follow us on social to see what’s next!

Our First Sunday sessions are the perfect place to level up. At every session, we have experienced surfers there to help. We also host guest-led clinics with local pros and instructors throughout the year that can help you progress your skills and get better on the water!
