Meet the Team
Mojosurf was started by two Aussie mates, Nat and Dan, who were born and bred surfing on Australia’s East Coast. They met in the surf and shared the same dream to give up their day jobs and enjoy a life of fun, surfing, adventure, travel and meeting new people.
In 1998, they started offering surf tours from Sydney to Byron Bay, surfing at some amazing locations along the way.
Since then, the Mojosurf have expanded to other locations in Australia, Bali, New Zealand and Europe, with a highly experienced crew of accredited surfing instructors.
