Join us at the Bay of Islands Yacht Club for an epic long weekend of foiling, friends, and good times in one of New Zealand’s most iconic summer destinations. This is less about strict racing and more about getting together with your mates, bringing your foils, and soaking up everything that makes Foil Bay of Islands special.
With a new and refreshed format, you’ll find all the things you already love about Foil Bay of Islands and more. Expect relaxed and high-energy foiling across Wingfoil, Moth, Kitefoil, and Windfoil, set against the crystal-clear waters and stunning scenery of the Bay. Whether you’re here to push yourself on the water, ride socially, or simply enjoy the atmosphere, there’s something for everyone.
Foil Bay of Islands is renowned as the largest foiling regatta in the Southern Hemisphere, bringing together around 200+ foilers from New Zealand and overseas. But at its heart, it’s a festival, a chance to connect, share sessions, tell stories at the end of the day,
Whether you’re a seasoned foiler, a social rider, or a spectator keen to experience the energy of modern foiling, this is your invitation.
