Surfer Girl of the Month - Felicity Palmateer

Felicity Palmateer aka Flick is a pro surfer from Western Australia. She is sponsored by Billabong since she was 14 and competed on the World Championship Tour in 2012. Here's what we love about her:

Bohemian bombshell. She lives a carefree lifestyle, traveling around the world in search for untouched paradisic beaches. From swimming with sting rays in Moorea to whales in Tahiti, she feels most comfortable when in the water. Travelling from place to place with the Billabong team all year round, she experiences the local foods, the different cultures of each location and gets to surf the best waves in clear tropical waters.

Ocean Lover. Taking every chance to raise awarness for environmental causes dedicated to ocean protection, Felicity uses her social media and art to spread her message. Travelling to eco-resorts, exploring the ocean and visiting marine animal rehabilitation centres, she is passionate about ocean conservation.

Talented Artist. Famous for her mandala watercolour paintings, she has been painting since a little girl influenced by her parents, who are also artists. You can see more about her artwork here: surfergirlsonly.blogspot.com/felicity-palmateers-artwork

Fearless surfer. In 2015 Felicity Palmateer surfed one of Australia's biggest waves, breaking records as a female Australian surfer. Growing up in Western Australia and with the support of her father, she quickly began getting the taste of surfing big waves at a young age.
