CONSERVATION ACTIVISM EDUCATION RESEARCH

The Surfrider Foundation is a grassroots, non-profit, environmental organization that works to protect our oceans, waves, and beaches.

Founded in 1984, Surfrider’s most important coastal environmental work is carried out by 57 chapters located along the East, West, Gulf, Puerto Rican, and Hawaiian coasts.

Surfrider now has over 30,000 members in the USA; in addition, International Surfrider chapters and affiliates have been established in the countries of Japan, Brazil, Australia, France and Spain.

The Grand Strand Chapter serves the entire Grand Strand from Little River to Pawleys Island, encompassing both Horry and Georgetown counties.  Our chapter works to keep our beaches and waves clean, educate the public, and protect beach access.

Contributors are welcome! We strive to bring you a simple, easy-to-use web site that provides the latest chapter news on events, meetings, and environmental issues. The articles are written by a brave group of Surfrider volunteers from the Grand Strand chapter. If you’d like to contribute, have questions concerning the chapter, or have a problem accessing a portion of the site, please contact us and we’ll be in touch as soon as possible.

The site is proudly powered by WordPress, because we think open-source and freedom matters.  WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability
