After a seven-year hiatus, Cloudbreak is back on the Championship Tour schedule as the ninth and final stop of the regular season. The 2024 Corona Fiji Pro presented by Bonsoy will see the top 24 men and 12 women return to one of the world's most perfect and iconic waves. This powerful, left-hand reef break will not only cap the regular season but will officially set the WSL Final 5 roster.
Fiji has been home to some of the most memorable moments at the Championship Tour level, including a record four wins by 11x World Champion Kelly Slater who returns to the event this year as a wildcard. Fiji will also welcome back tour veterans such as Gabriel Medina, John John Florence, Tyler Wright, and Tatiana Weston-Webb as well as others who will be competing there for the first time including current world No. 1 Caitlin Simmers and Griffin Colapinto.
