Mission

Founded in 1984, the Surfrider Foundation is a grassroots environmental organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world's oceans, waves and beaches for all people, through conservation, activism, research and education. The Surfrider Foundation Chapters are the heart, soul and body of the Surfrider Foundation. The Surfrider Chapters act locally to protect their community's coast. There are 70 Surfrider chapters located along the East, West, Gulf, Hawaiian and Puerto Rican coasts. The Foundation focuses its work on four initiatives: clean water, beach access, beach preservation, and protection of special places.
