It’s got to be one of the coolest sports in the world and whilst the professionals definitely do it best, the celebrity world comes a close second with many of them inspiring us to throw on a wetsuit and give it a try for ourselves. Here are just a few of the biggest surfing fans…
1. Cameron Diaz
One of the most established celebrity surfers out there, Cameron Diaz was actually trained by pro-surfer legend Kelly Slater and even showed of her skills in 2003 movie Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle.

3. Liam Hemsworth
Following closely behind his brother Chris, it is again unsurprising to see that Liam is somewhat of a dab-hand out there on the waves too considering his upbringing in the ‘surf Mecca’ of Australia.

4. Lady Gaga
As if mastering a pop star career wasn’t enough for Lady Gaga it seems that she isn’t all that bad on a surfboard either. Just look at that stance – quite impressive indeed.

5. Matthew McConaughey
Even though he made a movie in 2007 called Surfer, Dude that the surfing community absolutely despised, it didn’t stop Matthew McConaughey falling in love with the sport which he now carries on at his Malibu home today.

7. Orlando Bloom
Ok we know what you’re thinking and I’m afraid we’re not going to be showing you that naked paddleboard photo (which hit tabloids last year of Orlando and his then-girlfriend Katy Perry). However, it turns out that Orlando has another to skill that’s worth showing off and that is his natural surfing prowess.

8. Gisele Bündchen
Even though the Chanel No. 5 advert she starred in couldn’t have been more fake in a surfing capacity, it turns out that Brazilian supermodel Gisele actually is a very keen surfer in her downtime.

10. Emma Stone
There have been many who’ve seen this photograph and have been quick to point out that the kid in the background is doing way better than Emma Stone, but you’ve got to love the fact she is just giving it a go on a holiday in Hawaii back in 2014. And she looks like she’s having a great time in the process.
