More than 10,000 spectators traveled to Florida’s Space Coast for the 12th annual Surfing Santas event and watched 400-plus surfers shred waves for a good cause.
The organization had to cancel its event last year due to the coronavirus pandemic, but this year Surfing Santas went all out with a six-city block venue at 3 Minutemen Causeway Beach.
