“I'm honored to work with World Surfing Reserves to hopefully be a small part of that difference in protecting the tradition and history around the surfing world's most symbolic and important beaches.” Kelly Slater 

 

World Surfing Reserves enshrine and protect the world’s greatest surf spots: the most sacred, cherished, environmentally rich and culturally significant areas. The program proactively designates and preserves outstanding waves, surf zones and their surrounding environments, around the world. It serves as a global model for protecting wave breaks and their surrounding areas by recognizing the positive environmental, social, cultural and economic benefits of waves.

Save The Waves developed World Surfing Reserves in conjunction with National Surfing Reserves Australia, and has established additional partnerships with the International Surfing Association (ISA), and Stanford University’s Center for Responsible Travel (CREST) to help distribute, implement and manage the initiative.
