How To Identify Threats
The app has six main threat categories: Coastal Development; Plastic Trash and Marine Debris; Sea Level Rise and Erosion; Water Quality; Coral Reef Impact; and Access.Â

Crowdsourcing Data
Save The Waves App crowdsources data from coastal users (like you!) who identify coastal threats. We work hand-in-hand with Coalition partners to address reported issues.
