Annual Paddle Race

Saturday October 3, 2026 at Doran Beach

Save the date! The registration for the 2026 Surfrider Sonoma Coast Blue Water Paddle Race will be open soon!

The annual Blue Water Paddle Race is held each October at beautiful Doran Beach in Bodega Bay. The Sonoma Coast Surfrider is proud to do what we can to keep our oceans clean, healthy, and vibrant. Proceeds from the race go towards that end. We are a small chapter in a beautiful area. Hopefully you can join us in person for the best little race around, going strong since 2012!

Any paddle powered water craft can enter. If you don’t see your division, for example you want to paddle a sheet of plywood, contact us.  

***ALL PADDLERS MUST WEAR A PFD.***

We want to thank all our participants, sponsors and prize donors for making the Blue Water Paddle Race Fundraiser a huge success each year!
