Avustralya, 1970’ler. Kelly kardeşler Andy (28) ve Jimmy’nin (22) tek bir tutkusu vardır: büyük dalgalarda sörf yapmak. Andy ve Jimmy çocukken anneleri Sydney’den dünyanın en zorlu ve tehlikeli dalgalarının görüldüğü bir sahil kasabası olan Margaret River’a kaçar. 12 yıl boyunca, çocuklar sörf yeteneklerini geliştirir ve her zaman mükemmel dalgaları ararlar. Özgür ruhlu Jimmy mükemmel bir sörfçü ve yenilikçidir ama ailesini borç batağından kurtarmak içi suç dünyasına girer. Andy büyük bir karar alır. Düzenli işinden ayrılarak Jimmy’nin sörf yenilikleri ve kendi iş yetenekleri üzerine oynar ve sörf malzemeleri satacağı bir yer açar. Sörf tahtası tasarımları ve evde yapılmış dalış giysileri satışına başlarlar. Yerli bir uyuşturucu satıcısına bulaşınca, kurdukları her şey yıkılma tehlikesiyle karşı karşıya kalır. Sörf fotoğrafçısı JB ve Hawaili sörf arkadaşı Lani gibi yeni arkadaşlarının da desteğiyle işlerini büyütme yollarını ararlar...
