Think globally, act locally.

Together, we can protect Vancouver Island’s coastlines.

Surfrider Foundation South Vancouver Island is dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the ocean, beaches, and waves, for all people, through a powerful activist network.

We are a volunteer-run team of everyday citizens who host monthly events to educate and engage the Vancouver Island community in protecting our coastline.

Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

Surfrider Foundation Canada is committed to fostering a just, equitable, diverse, and inclusive organization for all people who depend on, protect and enjoy the world’s ocean, waves, and beaches. Our ability to address the root cause of issues is contingent on learning from our community - including folks directly impacted by coastal and oceanic issues, standing in solidarity with our allies, and working towards a more just future for the people of today and those of tomorrow.
