Jacksonville Beach Surf Festival

12th Annual SFA Jacksonville Surf Festival

Join Surfers for Autism for their 12th Annual Jacksonville Beach Surf Festival on Saturday, September 14th from 8 am to 4 pm behind the Hampton Inn Oceanfront.

Come out to participate or volunteer with this amazing Non-profit organization. Kids and young adults with autism and other special needs will get a chance to feel the glide of the surf through the help of dedicated people and watermen. SFA offers a chance for local businesses and resources to connect with the special needs community in their area.
