Behind the Scenes at QOTP Events

Putting together a Queen Of The Point event is no small feat. It’s a labor of love driven by Carla Zamora, the founder of QOTP. Here’s a glimpse into what goes on behind the scenes:
The Environmental Connection: Surfers and Ocean Conservation

Surfers have a unique bond with the ocean, spending countless hours immersed in its beauty and power. This connection often fosters a deep commitment to protecting marine environments, and Queen Of The Point is proud to champion efforts that align surfing with sustainability and conservation.
Highlighting Asia: The Heart of Surfing in the Philippines

The Philippines, with its stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and world-class waves, has become a cornerstone in the global surfing community. Among its jewels are the surf towns of La Union and Siargao, both of which hold special places in the hearts of surfers and in the journey of Queen Of The Point.
Art of Longboarding

Longboarding is more than just a style of surfing; it’s a timeless tradition that embodies the grace, rhythm, and artistry of wave riding. At Queen Of The Point, longboarding holds a special place as it celebrates the roots of surfing while showcasing the incredible talent of female surfers.
The Future of Female Surfing

Queen Of The Point is not just a competition; it’s a platform shaping the next generation of female surfers and redefining the culture of surfing. Through our events and community engagement, we aim to break barriers and inspire young women to take to the waves with confidence and passion.
Surf Culture Chronicles: Preserving Etiquette and Respect

Surf culture has always been steeped in traditions, from respecting the hierarchy in the lineup to honoring the unspoken rules of the waves. However, etiquette is not about localism. It’s about fostering a respectful and inclusive environment where everyone, regardless of their experience level or origin, can enjoy the ocean safely and harmoniously.
