5When Zoey and Kiki, two irrepressible girls from another galaxy, become castaways in the quiet Australian seaside town of Lightning Point, they recruit local girl Amber to keep them undercover. But the whole town is abuzz with the sighting of alien spacecraft, and the girls soon realize that they may not be the first intergalactic visitors to Earth.

7!!Tropes:
8* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: Pending [[invoked]]WordOfGod on this, it ''is'' their true form, so a subversion. Later played straight, when it is revealed that their true form is basically [[BallOfLightTransformation ball lightning]], making them {{Energy Being}}s, or plasma beings anyway.
9* AlienAmongUs: The main premise of the series.
10* AlphaBitch: Madison, though there are traces of a LovableAlphaBitch in there.
11* BeachEpisode: ''Every single episode''!
12* BigBrotherBully: Brandon to Luca.
13* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Zoey, Kiki, and Amber (even though she's more auburn).
14* ChekhovsGun: The model airplane used to record the [[spoiler:massive crop circle that appears later in the season]] is hanging on the wall in episode 2.
15* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: At least in the U.S.
16* GracefulLoser: Madison in "Surf's Up." She takes a loss to Zoey in a surfing competition much better than her previous behavior would lead one to expect.
17* [[spoiler:HalfHumanHybrid]]:[[spoiler:Brandon Benedict]] is revealed to be this.
18* HumanAliens: Possibly like the Time Lords in some way.
19* EmotionlessGirl: Zoey acts like this on a regular basis. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as "Feelings" gives a pretty terrifying display of what happens when she can't keep her emotions under control.
20* LethalChef: Zoey's sauce in Crushed. Amber describes it as "Awful, bad, the worst thing I've ever tasted", promptly followed by disposing of it down the drain. At the end of the episode, Kiki and Amber refuse to accept Zoey's offer to make pancakes. In unison.
21* MarketBasedTitle: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin ''Alien Surf Girls'']] in the U.S.
22* MoodMotif: The Guitars of Surfing and the Theremin of Sci-Fi/Outer Space. Right in the ThemeTune.
23* RightBehindMe: When Amber is panicking about how more guests showed up to the party then expected and it is impossible to clean the entire house before her mother gets home, she realizes Kiki and Zoey are staring at the aforementioned parent, prompting her to deliver this trope word for word.
24* ScareTheDog: Animals are shown being freaked out by alien-related things on multiple occasions.
25* ShoutOut: When Madison asks what Zoey's surname is, Kiki is confused and simply repeats her friend's name again. This is a reference to a similar scene in ''Series/OceanGirl'' where Kal is asked for his surname and answers the same way. Apparently if you are from another planet, you don't have surnames.
