On Thursday 20 July 2017 representatives from Surfing WA and some veteran South West surfers met with management at Aravina Estate, Yallingup to discuss the setting up of a SW Surf History Museum on the Estate.
The proposed museum will showcase vintage surfboards, trophies, magazines, memorabilia and photographs from the 50s to present. Surfboard shaping and other live surfing related demonstrations will take place at the venue.

It is hoped the SW Surf History Museum will be set up in time for a grand opening to be held in conjunction with the Yal Mal Classic in early December 2017.
