Our annual Lowlands Longboard Surfing Competition returns to Belhaven in East Lothian!
Get those longboards ready, mark your calendar, and join us for a brilliant weekend of surfing. The Lowlands Longboard Surfing Competition has been running for over a decade, and every year it brings together surfers from across Scotland and beyond. It’s not just about winning – it’s about great waves, good people, and building the longboard community.
Held at Belhaven beach near Dunbar, this event has become a highlight in the Scottish surf calendar. Whether you’re competing or just coming along to watch, the atmosphere is always relaxed, friendly, and welcoming.

Even if you’re not surfing, everyone is welcome. Come along to Belhaven beach, cheer on the competitors, and enjoy a great day by the sea with the local surf community.
The After Party
The fun doesn’t stop when the competition ends. Once the sun sets, we’re heading into Dunbar for the official after party.
