Patagonia San Sebastian Beach cleanup

Limpieza de la Zurriola - Zurriola Beach Cleanup from Patagonia Surf Europe on Vimeo.

December 22, 2011. Surfers from San Sebastián, Spain were kind enough to donate their time to cleaning up Zurriola Beach. Over 30 bags of trash were collected.

 

SENEGAL SURF!!

Our friend Alain Sevelec set up a program where European surfers could trade in their old wetsuits for a new Patagonia t-shirt at the Salon des Glisseurs surf trade show in Seignosse, France. He then personally took all the wetsuits to Senegal and donated them to the Club d’N’Gor Surf Club. We will let you know when we do it again. Hang on to those old suits!
