The SeaSap Story

The Paddle Out

In 2016 two young surfers, Elliott & Micah, were in search of a Zinc product that didn’t cause rashes or allergies, wouldn’t sting their eyes, would last for ages and be friendly to the ocean and reef.

There was nothing out there, so they set about researching the best ingredients and processes to make their own.

After months of experimenting in their shed, the pair succeeded in producing the perfect natural, zinc-based, sun protection and created SeaSap.

The Take Off

A few years, adventures and surf trips later, life dropped in, stock ran low and surfers who had been using SeaSap since the beginning were in desperate need of more.

Rod Moratti, a long-time surfer and SeaSap disciple, noticed his local surf shops no longer stocked SeaSap and reached out to the guys.

In 2021 a handshake deal was done and now Rod and his team are stoked to carry on the good work.

The Ride

SeaSap continues our promise to be the best zinc sun protection for surfers and lovers of the outdoors.

Proudly hand made in New Zealand, using zinc, bees wax and organic ingredients, SeaSap is natural, it works, won’t sting your eyes, stays on longer, is safe for the ocean and all skin types.

Chuck one in your surf kit, your bag and your glove box and give it as a gift.

It’s our passion, so you can trust that no matter whether you are using SeaSap Zinc, SnoSap Zinc or another SeaSap product, you are in safe, caring, like-minded hands.
