Guest Code of Conduct

URBNSURF is committed to operating a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment — free from hate, intimidation, or discrimination. We have a zero-tolerance policy for disrespectful behaviour towards, or by, our crew, members and guests.  By entering and using our facilities, you agree to comply with this Code of Conduct.

All guests, members and staff must:

  • Treat all guests, members and staff with courtesy and respect.
  • Not do anything that constitutes discrimination, bullying, harassment, or offensive language – these will not be tolerated.
  • Act responsibly, with consideration for your own safety and the safety of others
  • Follow all reasonable instructions or warnings issued by our staff
  • Use safety equipment as directed by our staff
  • Take responsibility for your personal belongings
  • Supervise children and persons under your care at all times. Please note that our lifeguards and staff cannot watch or supervise children on your behalf.

Surfer’s Code of Conduct

The Surfer’s Code of Conduct sets out how surfers are expected to behave in the URBNSURF lagoon.

  • Surf To Your Ability: Only surf to your ability. If our staff notice that you are having difficulty in the zone you are surfing, or pose a hazard to other surfers, we may ask you to move to another surfing zone.
  • Wait Your Turn: A “one-at-a-time” priority system applies to surfing in the URBNSURF lagoon. Surfers are expected to wait their turn to catch their wave. There is a strict prohibition on “dropping in” (i.e. taking off on a wave that another surfer is already riding) or “snaking” (i.e. paddling ahead of the next surfer(s) who are waiting in the queue).
  • Your Wave Is Your Wave: When your wave comes, it’s yours. If you aren’t ready, miss it, or fall, you’ll need to return to the back of the queue and wait your turn for another one.
  • Keep Clear of Other Surfers: If you fall, keep clear of other surfers by staying in the whitewater and paddling around to the channel, hugging the pier and generator. Avoid paddling up the green face of the wave as you are likely to disrupt the surfer who’s up and riding.
  • Be Respectful, Friendly and Courteous: Be respectful, friendly and courteous in the water. Maintain a pleasant atmosphere by keeping noise and profanity to a minimum. When paddling or catching a wave, communicate your intentions to others. If you’re stuck on the inside, ask for help if you need it. Please avoid verbal and physical altercations with other surfers.

If you break the code or make a mistake, apologise and head to the back of the queue. If you drop in or snake other surfers, you’re likely to be unpopular in the water and will be warned by our staff. Repeated or serious breaches may result in removal from the water or the Premises. URBNSURF reserves the right to eject any surfer at its sole discretion and if necessary to refuse entry in cases of repeated breaches of the code of conduct.

Playground Code of Conduct

  • URBNSURF follows the Child Safe Standards.
  • Adults are only permitted in the playgrounds when accompanying a child or children.
  • No alcohol, smoking or drugs are permitted in the playgrounds.
  • No dogs are permitted in the playgrounds.
  • No food is permitted in the playgrounds.
  • Dispose of rubbish in the bins provided
  • Respect others privacy by only taking photos of you and your family or group in the playgrounds.
  • Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising children at all times.

Plunge and Spa Pool Code of Conduct

  • We recommend that plunge pool use is limited to 15 minutes at a time.
  • Always follow the directions of staff and lifeguards.
  • Shower before and after use.
  • Never place your head under the water.
  • Do not use the plunge pool if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
  • No food, glass items, or oils are permitted in the plunge pool area.
  • Children 12 years and younger must be supervised by an adult at all times.
