The Hawaiʻi Region includes four volunteer-based Chapters (Kauaʻi, Oʻahu, Maui, and Kona) that are part of the worldwide Surfrider Foundation network based in San Clemente, California. Chapter programs and campaigns focus on five initiatives: Plastic Pollution, Ocean Protection, Clean Water, Beach Access, and Coastal Preservation. In 2021, regional efforts led to the successful passage of groundbreaking coastal protection legislation and prioritized innovative initiatives aimed at addressing ocean-based plastic pollution, clean water, and climate change. Chapters continued to engaged our local communities with beach cleanups and virtual events.
