The World Surf League Championships is the annual pro surf tour finale and in 2023 will be held at Lower Trestles, the famous Southern California surf break in San Clemente.
The World Surf League, which organizes the event, is the governing body for professional surfers. The championship series are held at iconic surf locations worldwide, such as Pipeline in Hawaii, Teahupo’o in Tahiti, and Jeffreys Bay in South Africa.
