When Tommy, Lisa, Kelly, and Danny move to Summer Bay for a school exchange program, they have no idea what to expect. They soon meet Alf Stewart, the local legend who runs the bait shop and the surf club. Alf takes a liking to the four teens and decides to teach them some life lessons. He shows them how to surf, fish, camp, and enjoy the simple things in life. He also tells them stories about his past adventures and his love for his late wife Ailsa. Along the way, the teens encounter some challenges, such as dealing with bullies, crushes, family issues, and culture shock. They also make some new friends, such as Barbie, and Penguins. Through Alf’s guidance and wisdom, Tommy, Lisa, Kelly, and Danny learn how to live in the moment and appreciate the beauty of Australia.
