APP DATA & PARTNERS
Crowdsourcing coastal threats.
The Save The Waves App crowdsources data from coastal users (like you!) who identify coastal threats like illegal development, plastic pollution and poor water quality.
The Save The Waves App is available worldwide in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French and is currently being used in over 40 countries.
How is the data used?
This data you provide is shared with local partners and coastal agencies in our Coalition to identify and reduce threats in surf ecosystems across the globe.
With the information you provide, we can determine and implement necessary stewardship projects to preserve coastal health, such as beach cleanups or water quality management.
Our commitment to open data.
