INJURED WHILE SURFING?

Will travel insurance cover me if, I’m injured while surfing in a wave pool. Surfing must be a covered sport or activity with your travel insurance provider to qualify for any cover while surfing. Benefits may include EVAC, medical and loss of income from injuries while surfing. There will be terms and conditions for all benefits, and you must always contact your emergency provider as soon as possible, as they can assist in arranging proper medical care.

DAMAGE TO SURFBOARDS?

Will Travel Insurance cover any lost, stolen or damaged to surfboards? Your policy must provide cover for surfboards to qualify for any cover. Surfboards may be covered whilst in a carrier’s care and in rental vehicles, but there will be terms and conditions to consider. It is common to have no cover for sporting equipment, whilst in use.

The standard costs for a luggage item are usually $700 less any depreciation, and up to $4,000 for total luggage costs. In other words, up to $700 per surfboard and up to $4,000 for your quiver. You can increase your luggage costs per item by Specifying the Item in your policy, usually for an extra cost and no depreciation included.

For example, with custom and expensive surfboards you can increase the cover to suit the cost to replace up to $4,000 per board by Specifying the Item and paying extra cost.

There may be requirements on the owner to get reports from police or carriers to substantiate your claim, as terms and conditions will apply.
