Neil Cartwright, managing director at Million Media comments, "Through permanent features such as Beaches, Surfcast, Events, Surf Awards and The Green Room where they can interact with other likeminded surfers, both casual and professional surfers will now be able to have up to date and dedicated information that's important for them."

The Surfstock Festival, which is held in Cornwall and has been running since 2003, will feature popular bands such as Alphabeat, The Gossip and The Heavy.    Surfstock festival tickets are able to purchase directly from the website, along with casting their vote for their favourite 'Local Hero' band ahead of the festival.
