Description
Surfrider EU is dedicated to the protection of the ocean, lakes, rivers, the coastline and waves, and the people who enjoy and appreciate them. Created in 1990 in Europe (Biarritz, France) by surfers, including 3-time World Surfing Champion Tom Curren, the organisation brings together today about 2,000 volunteers, 13,000 members, more than 40 local chapters active in 11 European countries, and 150,000 supporters in Europe. Sometimes referred to as Surf Rider Foundation (not correct, but not uncommon!)
