The fall season brings plenty of big waves to the Brunswick Islands, and visitors and locals alike can test their skills on the ocean waters at this annual tournament that’s open to youth and adult boarders alike. Oak Island Labor Day Surf Off is a surfing, body board, and SUP contest that’s open to participants of all ages, and which is sure to be a competition that both spectators and participants won’t want to miss.
The event is held on Labor Day Weekend, which marks the beginning of fall, and often the arrival of big surf along the Cape Fear Coastline. Entry forms for the event are available at local surf shops throughout the Oak Island area, as well as the Oak Island Recreation Center, and visitors and locals are both welcome to participate. On the day of the competition, the action will take place at the Ocean Crest Pier on Oak Island, and visitors will want to hit the pier and the local beaches to see the competitors show off their skills on the local waves. Free for folks who want to grab a beach chair and watch the fun, the Oak Island Labor Day Surf Off is a great event for surfers and sightseers alike.
