The Santa Barbara Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation is dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our ocean, waves, and beaches through a powerful activist network.

In-person events and chapter meetings are cancelled for the time being. Stay tuned for virtual offerings and updates on when in-person meetings will resume.

We meet the 3rd Thursday of every other month at 7pm at the Watershed Resource Center (check our events calendar for the next one). These meetings usually feature an interesting guest speaker or film screening. Free food and beverages. Open to everyone! Visit our facebook for the latest information.
