The Gaza Surf Club
 



We are the surfers of the Gaza.  Most of us live in or near Gaza City in the Gaza Strip, Palestine.  Since the summer of 2007, Gaza's borders have been sealed and it's 1.5 million residents have been socially and economically cut off from the rest of the world.  For us surfers, the waves of the eastern Mediterranean provide us with an escape where we can forget the pains and hardship of living in Gaza and, at least for a while, feel free!

     News and Updates

The first two teasers have been released for the upcoming documentary film, God Went Surfing With The Devil.  This film tracks the lives of Israeli and Palestinian surfers in Israel and the Gaza Strip as both side struggle to survive in the face of war and seek refuge in the waves of the Mediterranean.  Filmed in the summer of 2008, this documentary features footage of The Gaza Surf Club and interviews with its members. See the teasers here.

We are still anxiously awaiting the delivery of the 15 new surfboards donated by Global Surf Industries, and 4 used longboards, all of which were gathered by Gaza Surf Relief.  The surfboards have been prohibited from entering Gaza by the Israeli Navy but we hope to receive them as soon as the siege of Gaza is lifted.http://www.godwentsurfing.com/trailers.phpshapeimage_7_link_0
