Mark Drewelow

1964 - 2025

Mark’s passion for bodysurfing was unmatched – his boundless enthusiasm, deep understanding of the ocean, and dedication to the sport inspired everyone around him. He was a student of the sea, an incredible waterman, and an exceptional human who made us all strive to be better, both in and out of the water.

His impact on our community will never be forgotten. Sending all our love and prayers to his family during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Mark – you will always be with us in the waves.
