ABOUT US
What is the Noosa World Surfing Reserve?
The mission statement of World Surfing Reserves is to “proactively identify, designate and preserve outstanding waves, surf zones and surrounding environments around the world”.
The Save The Waves Coalition, along with key partners like National Surfing Reserves (NSR) Australia and the International Surfing Association (ISA), launched the World Surfing Reserves concept in 2009, and it now serves as a global model for preserving wave breaks and their surrounding areas by recognizing and protecting the key environmental, cultural, economic and community attributes of surfing areas.
Surf Safety
Surfers Code
The problem with housing five of the world’s best point breaks within its borders is that the Noosa World Surfing Reserve regularly plays host to thousands of visiting surfers during the swell events that create the perfect waves that have become world famous. We can’t turn back the clock to those halcyon days when Noosa was a “secret break”, but we can promote a code of conduct that will make surfing here less dangerous and more enjoyable for all.
