Matakana’s favourite surf shop.
Matt Craig grew up with the ocean as his playground, thanks to his amazing parents who instilled in him a love for the sea. His childhood was filled with adventures on boats, holidays at the old family bach, and countless hours spent surfing the waves. This idyllic upbringing fostered a deep connection to the ocean and a passion for all things aquatic.
When Matt returned to New Zealand with his family after running a successful surf school in Costa Rica, he set up business in Matakana. Eventually what evolved was Summer Sessions, your local surf store.
A positive force in the lives of many, Matt is always ready to lend a hand or offer words of encouragement. His commitment to the community and the ocean have made him a beloved figure, inspiring others to get out there and follow in his footsteps and cherish the natural beauty of the sea.
Summer Sessions is located next to the Matakana cinemas in the heart of the village.
