Shane Daugherty is a seasoned traveler, budding surfer, and the free-spirited mind behind RoamingSurfer.com. Despite growing up on the California coast, Shane’s love affair with the ocean and surfing began a little over four years ago. With saltwater now running through his veins, he’s been tirelessly chasing waves and has ventured to some of the most exotic surf spots on the globe.

For Shane, surfing isn't just about riding waves. It’s a spiritual journey, a relentless pursuit of freedom, and a gateway to discovering the world's cultures and landscapes. With a bag always packed and a quiver of boards ready, he’s navigated tropical reefs, point breaks, and big wave spots, immersing himself in the cultures and befriending the locals along the way.

Through RoamingSurfer.com, Shane aims to share the stoke with kindred spirits. From riveting surf stories and invaluable travel tips to comprehensive surf guides and gear recommendations, his insights are born out of his growing passion and adventures in the embrace of the waves.

Shane is also an environmental enthusiast, cognizant of the deep bond surfers share with Mother Nature. He is a firm believer in sustainable travel and active in ocean conservation efforts.

When not gliding across the ocean or trekking through coastal villages, you can find Shane engaging in photography, trying out local cuisines, or playing the ukulele by a beachside bonfire.

Join him as he unravels the world wave by wave, and as he puts it, “Let's carve our paths across the seas and sands.”
