Orange County environmental and beach lifestyles blog SurfWriter Girls is excited to be celebrating its one year anniversary on July 20th.

Let the fireworks begin!

Started by Sunny Magdaug and Patti Kishel to provide information about environmental ocean concerns and promote the enjoyment of the oceans and beaches for everybody, the blog has become a strong supporter of the non-profit Surfrider Foundation and a forum for sharing a wide variety of stories of interest to the beach community.

SurfWriter Girls has been the perfect partnership for Sunny and Patti – putting Sunny’s public relations and sports writing talents to use and Patti’s writing background and experience in the business & entertainment industry.


It’s especially meaningful for us to be able to help promote the Surfrider Foundation and its efforts to protect the environment and get everyone on board to “respect the beach.” 



Many of our stories have come from working with Surfrider Huntington Beach/Seal Beach Chapter Chairperson Tony Soriano and all the dedicated Surfrider volunteers and sponsors.

We feel fortunate to be able to make a contribution to improving the quality of our environment and enabling people to see and experience all the joys our beach communities have to offer.  

SurfWriter Girls Sunny and Patti are looking forward to the next year and the new stories we will be able to share with our readers.

  4. Congratulations, Patti and Sunny!
    Thank you for all the great information you provide people about surfing-related people, places and activities, and how we can help protect the marine environment and all its inhabitants. You're very clever and creative. And I still think Steven Spielberg should make a film of KONA HEAT. Happy Anniversary!
