Save The Waves Film Festival
About the Save the Waves organization:
Save The Waves Coalition is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of surfing coastline and the marine environment.
We are a devoted group of surfers, scientists, and activists, who share a common belief that our wild coastal areas around the world are precious and valuable, and need to be protected.
Save The Waves fought its first battle early in 2001 on the island of Madeira, southwest of Portugal, when the government proposed building a large marina in the village of Lugar de Baixo, directly on top of a perfect right point break.
About the Save the Waves Film Festival: Captain Paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and one of the world’s preeminent voices for protection of the oceans will be at the theatre in person to present the award winning film The Cove.
