Corona Open hitting the Gold Coast
The second stop on the Men’s Surfing Championship Tour in 2021. Every year the WSL’s best surfers amass on the Gold Coast of Australia for the Corona Open in anticipation of the start of the Australian leg of the season.
Held at iconic Snapper Rocks, the contest serves as an exhibition of state-of-the-art, high-performance surfing. It’s also a hell of a good time. And with Duranbah Beach right over the hill and Byron Bay (also home of the Bluesfest music festival) about an hour’s drive away, there are ample options for more civilian surf.
Numerous sponsor parties and nightlife activities on the schedule ensure there’s plenty to do when the sun goes down.
