The Butterfly Effect brings women together for noncompetitive ocean sports in coastal cities all over the world. The aim is to instill self-confidence and a love for the ocean in women of all skill levels.


The Butterfly Effect began in Hawaii in 2007. Since then it has flown to Brazil, New Zealand, and Australia for group surf sessions and clinics in windsurfing, stand-up paddle, and kiting. Each event also includes safety and stretching sessions, as well as food and gear from local sponsors and fundraising for local charities. Hundreds of women around the world have already participated in this free, fun and non-competitive event.


The Butterfly Effect is flying in the fall to Europe and South America, with three events planned in France, UK, Brazil and there are many more on the schedule. Check out the upcoming events link to see if there are any Butterfly Effects coming to you soon!
