SurfQuest – an advocate for accessibility to the water

The Rotary 6970 Area12 Clubs Grant Project SurfQuest, paid for in the 2023-24 grant year, has begun again this year. Rotary Club of St Augustine Beach volunteered on May 10 for the first event of the season at the Mary St Beach entrance of Crescent Beach, Florida

SurfQuest empowers people with disabilities by providing adaptive surfing instruction and therapeutic educational programs on water recreation, and enriches lives by assisting families to access the beach and ocean together in a barrier-free environment.

SurfQuest acts as an advocate for accessibility to the water that will allow people with limited mobility to reach the beach (i.e. wheelchairs, assisted devices, strollers, etc.).

SurfQuest provides adaptive equipment with education and training for the advancement of adaptive surfing.

Rotarians are welcome to volunteer. Such a great project helping people in our community.
