Meet Sonja Belle-Wood
Founder of Eco Surf Australia
A thirst for learning, energy to take action, a hope for a better future and an ability to inspire and influence others are common threads in Sonja's many roles and successes.
​
In 2022, Sonja launched Eco Surf Australia. The name synonymous with both Sonja's goal to not harm our beautiful ocean and her years spent on the beach patrolling and competing in surf lifesaving.
​
Her culmination of professional and philanthropic work has led to Sonja developing a passion to bring people together, influence change, inspire others, create opportunity and make a difference in making this world a better place by reducing the impacts of plastic and waste for both us and for our future generations.
